GateWorld Podcast

In this week's headlines we talk about guest star Colin Cunningham (Major Davis), and preview GateWorld's interviews with David Nykl (Radek Zelenka) and Nicole deBoer (Alison Porter). GateWorld Forum moderator Tame Farrar joins Darren and David for our discussion of last week's Stargate Atlantis episode "Whispers," in which Stargate dips its toe into the horror genre. Does Stargate do horror well? Was it a good episode for returning fan favorite Carson Beckett? How did the all-woman team work out?

GateWorld's editors let their opinions fly on the cancellation of Stargate Atlantis. Is the series leaving too soon? We also weigh in on the upcoming third series, Stargate Universe, and what we think it has to have in order to bring the franchise to new heights. And how about that franchise? Is Stargate running on fumes, or will the DVD movies and the new show make it better than it has ever been? David also fills us in on his trip to Gatecon 2008, and we run down the latest Stargate news and site features. And we have lots of mail in the mailbag and on the GateWorld Podcast Hotline!

GateWorld welcomes special guest David Hewlett (Stargate Atlantis's Rodney McKay) for our discussion of "The Shrine!" We chat about what we think made this week's episode one of the show's very best, and David gives us his unique insight into its filming. It's also a bombshell week in Stargate news, with MGM and SCI FI announcing the end of Stargate Atlantis and the green light for the third series, Stargate Universe. Don't miss our special podcast next week where we will talk in-depth about the end of Atlantis, the start of Universe, and the state of the franchise.

GateWorld's editors discuss the fifth episode of Stargate Atlantis's new fifth season, featuring the return of actress Michelle Morgan ("Fran")! Did the episode meet our lofty expectations? Would it have been better if Torri Higginson had returned as Elizabeth Weir? We'll also give you a sneak preview of our upcoming interview with actor David Nykl, who plays Dr. Zelenka on the show. And we'll recap the latest Stargate news and GateWorld site features from the past week, and check into the viewer mailbag.

With no new episode of "Stargate Atlantis" to talk about this week, Darren and David dive into an extended discussion of parallel universes and altered timelines in Stargate. We'll go in-depth on the Quantum Mirror, McKay's interdimensional energy collector, solar flares, Entropic Cascade Failure, and more! We'll also give you an exclusive preview of our new interview with "Fran" actress Michelle Morgan, run down the latest Stargate news and GateWorld site features from the past week, and read some viewer mail.

In Episode 5 Darren and David are joined by GateWorld Forum moderator Tame Farrar to talk about "The Daedalus Variations." How about those new bad guys? Was this the best episode of the season so far? We're also rolling out the new Podcast Hotline and giving you a chance to win a copy of "Stargate: Continuum" on DVD. And there is lots of listener mail this week, as we explore the possibilities for "Stargate Universe" and another SG-1 movie.

In this special bonus episode, GateWorld's Darren and David talk all about the new SG-1 movie "Stargate: Continuum." Are there flaws in Baal's time travel plan? Is Jack O'Neill's role big enough? Was this movie over-hyped for the fans? And finally, why do we like it so much?

In Episode 3 we're talking about last Friday's episode of Stargate Atlantis, "Broken Ties." Was Tyre's return satisfying? Should Ronon stay "dark side?" Was this episode predictable? But first we'll debrief David on his trip to Comic-Con, and try to stump him with more really hard trivia. And we'll recap the latest Stargate news and GateWorld features. THIS FRIDAY! Don't miss our bonus podcast, in which we'll talk all about the new SG-1 movie, Stargate: Continuum.

In Episode 2 we're talking about the newest episode of Stargate Atlantis, "The Seed." How did Mr. Woolsey do in his first crisis? How about that Carson Beckett? But first, we'll recap the latest Stargate news and GateWorld features -- and try to "Stump the Geek" with really hard trivia questions for David! BONUS: We're also talking about the impending DVD movie Stargate: Continuum. Don't worry ... we'll avoid spoilers until the movie is on store shelves July 29.
