SG-1 seeing double in ‘Ripple Effect’

Though spoilers abound online for many episodes in the unaired second half of Stargate SG-1‘s ninth season, one episode about which we know very little is “Ripple Effect.” With Asgard, characters back from the dead, and much more, the episode promises to be another fine head-scratcher.

In a new interview with Stargate SG-1: The Official Magazine, actress Amanda Tapping reveals a hint or two about the episode’s events.

Beware of minor spoilers.

“Right now we’re working on an episode called ‘Ripple Effect,’ which is where a bunch of parallel universes converge on the S.G.C., so there are multiple members of SG-1,” Tapping said.

“It’s a bit nutty. We’re actually doing a lot of really cool stuff like motion-control camera work which allows there to be three or four of us each in the scene, but it’s a bit hairy to shoot it. We were wearing our blacks, our greens, our desert storms — it’s quite funny.”

Check out the full interview with Tapping in the new issue of Stargate SG-1: The Official Magazine (#7, November/December 2005), on newsstands now! “Ripple Effect” will premiere in the U.S. early in 2006.
