Ep.2.25: "Stargate Atflanigan" with Joe Flanigan
Vložit
- čas přidán 1. 07. 2023
- Season 2, episode 25 is here and we have our first #1 on the call sheet! Col. John Sheppard, charismatic hero of Stargate Atlantis is here! Connor, Erica, and Mark have an awesome conversation with Stargate legend, and all around great guy, Joe Flanigan.
Dominic Keating is off this week - he is still driving across this great country in a car and it happens to be his Birthday! Happy Birthday Dominic! Continue to travel safe.
Joe Flanigan talks about life, career, Stargate, and General Hospital. A pile of Hollywood insider baseball stuff. Boarding school. Beer. Growing up with guns. Working in the White House before becoming an actor. Overcoming shyness. Why Jason Momoa is Jason Momoa. The business-based practical realities of acting vs. the glamorous image of acting. And... he talks about his new show - Joe vs. Joe.
Erica gets some fan questions in, we play a round of Star Trek Trivia, and subject Joe to being "Stuck on a Deserted Island with Connor Trinneer.” It's a good old fashioned episode!

I think Joe Flanigan was a great Col. John Sheppard. I enjoy watching reruns of Stargate Atlantis.
he was the glue for that show.
first season def early first half for sure... eventually we all learn to love mckay. and i feel be hard to hate jason momoa char.
the only time i was really upset with the writers tealc and jasons car fought...... to me it made 0 sense....... tealc is so old, his childish bs is gone. he past that drama crap.... and jasons char like tealc seen enough death and drama as well. he was always pissy but to pick a fight like that just bs. one of the worst episodes of both franchises imo. only to get their version of batman vs superman kind of thing........ @@seannalexander
Mckay was.... my fav... from the .....start@@FastDuDeJiunn
cool hair
Don’t forget Sheppard brought intellectual chops too, but he didn’t let that define him like Rodney.
SGA was fantastic. Imagine if Joe was able to secure SG rights after that 2012-2014 MGM thing!
Yea, I liked Sheppard Mckay stuff more than anything on SG1. Even though SG1 was great already. The Johnny Cash episode was soooo good. Get the most rewatches from me.
In at least one alternate universe, you know Joe succeeded and they made like 42 more (totally awesome) seasons …..… and I want to go there 😎
@@FiZcI watch SGA over and over. Wish it went more than 5 seasons
@@Platerpus7Me too, me too! I do a rewatch every year or so. I’m planning to start another one soon. The show just zips by with those 5 excellent seasons. The cast, the city (Atlantis), the stories… I miss it all! I wish that we could’ve at least gotten the Stargate Atlantis Extinction movie that Brad and company planned. Also, this show could’ve EASILY gone on for another 4-5 seasons. I’m thankful we got the show we did for at least those 5 seasons but I do still wish it went on at least a bit longer!
@@trailb4uif you find your way to that universe let me know!
Thank you for bringing Joe in. I walked in to Joe at a GateCon in Vancouver in 2003, literally walked into him. He was coming out of the elevator and I was going in and we collided. I was so embarrassed and apologetic, and this man was the nicest person in the room. He asked if I was okay, he stopped and took a minute to chat. Later that day I was lined up for an autograph on the DVD cover of season one box set. He was very humble and asked me if I had walked into anyone else that day. He left an impression that hey this dude is human after all. Seeing him here now, I see he hasn't changed, still a classy guy.
You had a crush on him.
This podcast is like "inside the actors studio" but for scifi legends, and more fun.
That's a good analogy. Well said.
Yeah, its funny how this podcast turned into something like that. I like it; it's a good direction.
I really do enjoy the aspect of this show.. you really get to see the actors love for their craft and their business.. it is great..
@@vehiclenanny lR
Atlantis in my humble opinion was easily the best star gate in my top three shows of all time I still watch it regularly to this day
Watching through SG-1, ATM. Currently in S6. NGL, looking forward to forking off to Atlantis.
Atlantis was my favourite sg. Joe was a great lead.
stargate*
@@flexydex8754 Stargate*
So good to see Joe! Stargate Atlantis was really so great.. ended too soon and abruptly.. They need to make a stargate Atlantis movie and bring everyone back for a reunion!
There was a planned direct dvd movie as SG-1 did twice but it was salved quickly. But there was a book series of SGA after season 5 and there was a happy ending of Lt. Ford.
@@josephbradley1903What was the happy ending? Thank you.
@@toneenorman2135 Ford was able to come home and to raise a family
Thank you. Though,that seemed pretty unlikely…@@josephbradley1903
@@josephbradley1903wait, he didn't die ?
I've watched Joe in other interviews and he never disappoints. Really down to earth and engaging.
Yup. Sounds like a great guy and sounds like his wife and kids are lucky to have him too.
Could anyone else hear whispering in the background occasionally? This was the first time I'd hear it and it was really strange. Also, LOOOOVE Joe. He's such a sweet guy.
change ur meds? lol
no he is right@@FastDuDeJiunn
Same. It’s so weird
yeah at 24:45 for instance. @FastDuDeJIunn I mean it's funny, but I really thought I need to change meds which is less funny.
Yes! Great episode, but the whispering in the background was really distracting and obvious.
"OMG CONNER WAS MICHAEL"... me when I saw Joe sitting there realizing this after all these Years lol
lol
I read that the scene where Trip is lying on a bed in a ship or shuttle
and going to a ship after faking his death in sickbay was really a scene from "Stargate". I thought it was from unused film clips dropped on the floor from the story. Which was it?
Bahahaha!!
Aw, Joe apologizing if any of what he tells us is "boring" - no! I loved hearing some inside scoop. It made me a bit sad and angry how they threw away a goldmine like SGA, but it was so interesting to hear how it all went down. You don't often get that opportunity as a fan. Great interview!
to be fair its pretty dry stuff for people in the industry i would think. but for people outside it is new to us. and he tells it with good pace and energy. i mean i heard mechanics tell good mechanic wrenching stoires. anything that is new,and told well can be entertaining.
I love this kind of conversation. Get to listen and hear cool stuff and just let them talk like real people.
I really, really like Joe Flanigan here. He just has a great understanding of the business.
No surprise, since Connor played Michael the mutant Wraith in Stargate Atlantis. Many Stargate and Star Trek actors have been on each other's shows.
Why, look everybody, he's got Coombs with him.
Star Trek ----> Stargate.
As well as Alien Nation.
You guys are all great actors, thank you for your dedication for all of us. Joe SGA was awesome. I couldn't imagine a better actor for that series.
Honestly, either could I. Joe was *perfect* for that role.
We agree!
Just rewatching sta now, can't believe it's been 20 years.
One of my fave shows of all time.
Please see if you can get David Hewlett! That would be amazing 😊
Just more Stargate people in general. Amanda Tapping and Chris Judge would be amazing too! Also Ben Browder because he can talk about both Farscape and Stargate.
He has his own twitch TV channel.
What I wouldn't give for an Atlantis and Enterprise revival. Literally still my favourite shows of their respective franchises
It would never be the same without the original actors, though. :(
@@WouldntULikeToKnow. i agree with you, Enterprise and Atlantis were both my favorites shows...ever honestly lol
That would be one hell of a crossover.
Hearing that BSG really was the aim of SGU was so interesting. I always hold BSG up as the example of how to do "dark" without leaving the audience depressed, and SGU as how not to. (SGU being a worst case scenario, trying to pivot from such fun origins.)
It's a lesson that people seem to still largely miss, maybe even more so in recent years.
Great episode. Thanks everyone!
Interesting you thought this because I remember when SGU aired and BSG wrapped up, me and a lot of SG fans were like.... Why are they trying to make SG into BSG? I don't like this
BSG did feel depressing.
Battlestar WAS Depressing could never get into it because I'm massive fan of the original series to it was just such depressing tone.
Stargate Atlantis and SG1 were fun and enjoyable to watch for years, thanks flannigan.
Something I've appreciated, enormously, about these interviews is to hear the individual experiences of that various guests and why and how they got into acting (dur, that's kinda what the show is about hah) as well as a lot of the behind the scenes stuff that goes on for those of us who don't know and/or aren't involved in media/entertainment.
Great show as always! Star Trek and Star gate; loving the combo interviews!
Thank you!
Agreed. So many major and minor and guest characters of around 360 episodes between 3 series and 2 movies.
The biggest mistake was ending Stargate Atlantis and SG1, there will never will be a show like that again, all the actors were amazing which in turn made the shows priceless but Atlantis was the best one for me
Joe is an intelligent, insightful guy and he really gives us a no B.S. view in to the backstage workings of the franchise. Excellent interview by all!
They're more real but not completely real. I trust you realize they are actors. For example, none of them would ever say that sci-fi is stupid.
SGA is one of my all time favourites - great to see Joe again!
I'd forgotten just how much of his own personality is a part of John Sheppard (and man did that suit the show perfectly).
Seriously, one of the most coolest, and chill gents out there. Those White House stories are legendary. One does not mess with a legend
I remember volunteering at a Seattle Comic Con, meeting Joe & many familiar talents from SG & BSG. That was a fun experience
A story with Joe, is a chill vibe just like this
Seeing Sheppard and Michael having a nice Chat just shows so much Character Growth ;)
One thing that made Stargate SG1 and Atlantis so good was the family friendly nature of the show and it's light-hearted nature. Universe killed me because it wasn't something I felt was safe to watch with the kids; you just never knew (language, sex, gore) episode to episode. SG1 and Atlantis was like a warm blanket you put on to make you feel good... Universe, although good (especially in season 2), lacked the comfy vibes and feel-good nature of the other series. I loved the premise and potential story telling of Universe and the acting was outstanding, but I feel like the world has enough "edgy" to deal with and we need to go back to what makes us feel good. In the end, there is room for both shows (and I'd watch them both if they ran side-by-side), but we need Atlantis / SG1 style show back on the air. I can only hope Amazon can appreciate what Stargate is and the original fan base. We've been abandoned for so long...
I found SGU boring.
I watched battle star for battle star. I watched Stargate for Stargate. SGU just kinda killed that. I'd rather have the SGA season 6 or movie
I would not have high hopes for Amazon.
Funny enough, the first season of SG1 has full frontal female nudity, because it was originally a Showtime show and it was thought that premium cable viewers would expect that. So Daniel's wife is stripped naked by her Goa'uld captors. They quickly abandoned that, but it's something to keep in mind if you're introducing your kids to what is otherwise a very wholesome, family-friendly show
@@plain_simple_garakit’s the one episode of SG1 my son has never watched. The nudity was awkward and forced and it was blatantly put in for the sake of being on Show Time.
You guys (and Erica) are doing amazing! Interviews with Trek and Stargate is great work!
Please keep it up!
🙏👍✌️💜
Sheppard was one of my favourite characters in the Stargate Universe. Great to see Joe talking about a lot of the things I always wondered about. Amazing show, thanks!
I have all of Stargate on DVD and I have watched SG: SG-1 over 50 times easy. I have also watched SG: Atlantis over 50 times and I never get tired of any of them. I also loved Star Trek: Enterprise and really wish it has been on longer. I think I have only watched SG: Universe 2 or 3 times and it was a real effort. I remember reading that RDA had specifically asked to play his character with more of a sense of humor because he didn't think he could endure the show if he had played it like the Kurt Russell version. I think SG-1 and Atlantis are the easiest shows to watch over and over again and they always entertain. I will say that when I was a Professor at West Point, our Department Head was a huge Stargate fan and that was when they were still on TV. He would come into work on Monday and talk about each episode with me as we waited for students to arrive.
Great interview and very interesting.
I'm so happy to read that someone is like me lol I absolutely love Stargate
I grew up on Star Trek when it originally aired but I love Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis. I just finished a rewatch of Stargate Atlantis and I will say that the episode with Sheppard in Vegas has grown on me. @@izabelasiczek3547
i also love Enterprise and have bingewatched it like 5 times. I just recently got into Atlantis but its so good....im gonna have to watch it 5 times also lol
Thats cool, what did you teach at West Point?
Branching out to othe Sci-Fi properties? No complaints here, Joe is great! Keep up the great work!
Unfortunately, I don't have time to watch this live, but I heartily support bringing more Stargaties on. I suppose you could even let some Star Wars folks on, if they have had all their shots 😅. Seriously though, this is the best show of the whole category. Keep 'em coming!
Very interesting insight in to the machinations of Hollywood and the deals that need to be done etc. great guest. I love Atlantis and especially loved the CSI :Vegas episode. !👍👍
Awesome!! There's a laundry list of Sci-fi legends to pick from Joe is definitely one of the unsung heroes of the SG series. Not to mention RDA, Michael Shanks... Claudia Black/Ben Browder (Farscape and SG1) Scifi isn't just Star Trek, but without Star Trek there wouldnt be our modern Science Fiction shows that followed.
Between this episode, and the one with David Blue, I've learned alot about what happened to both series I deeply love. Thanks 👍 🖖😁🤘🇨🇦
Is this boring? No! This is great stuff. Another great interview.
He hasn't changed a bit (outside some gray hairs), same hairstyle, not fat... amazing!
Greatest Cowlicks ever
The women get fat after 40. The men get fat after 60.
Fantastic show! Still holding out for Colm Meany unless he doesn’t do interviews. Also Ben Browder would be a cool guest.
Great interview! Love stargate and Atlantis. Thanks for doing this.
Would love to see Amanda Tapping and David Hewlett on the show.
Awesome interview. SG Atlantis should have gone on for a few more years. SG Universe needed at least one year though. I will forever wonder if Eli survives. 🙂 Definitely appreciate you bringing in more SciFi franchises to interview BTW. Love the show!
It was a great show as usual. These interviews always go beyond whatever show the guest is known for which is why I enjoy these interviews regardless of whether I'm a fan of the represented franchise. As for the whispering, this is a recorded show. The live premiere is just the live chat not a live show, so by the time you all heard it, it was too late to do anything about it. The Shuttlepod Show acknowledged the error in the live chat today. Mistakes happen from time to time, we're all human and it happens, it didn't take away anything from the show for me.
I still watch Atlantis over and over. I would love to see a stargate show about the ancients. Maybe the war with the wraith.
I long for the days when writers could write with the kind of brilliance in all of the Stargate episodes. I don’t know how many times I can rewatch, because other than Star Trek, Orville and Babylon 5 nothing today compares. I fall asleep to these actors many nights. I also long for the days when they managed to produce 20 episodes. You’d think with the advanced tech they now have that they could accomplish more, not less. More acting and focusing on the story, rather than the special effects could help. Thanks for the great work!
I love this episode such a buddies having a drink around the campfire feel!
I watched Shuttlepod One last night. I’ve always enjoyed that episode and Reed and Tuckers interaction. Love your show, thanks and good day 🍻
I've started watching the first season again. Crewman Cutler made her first appearance, yesterday. Still sad after all this time
Great interview from the team and insights from Joe Flanigan about his career and key role in Stargate Atlantis.
I very much enjoyed this ep - comfortable, positive energy, peppered with humour and anecdotes and tidbits, and Joe Flanigan delightful throughout. What a nice human. I loved and still love SGA, and still feel aggrieved and frustrated by the injustice of a series that good being cancelled in its prime. I hadn't felt that gutted since Enterprise was cancelled. So much of the frustration arises from knowing how good something is, and it's being taken away, and all the fans and most of the people involved can see what a mistake that is, yet we have exactly no input or control over a frankly baffling decision being made by one or two people. It's absurd. Trying to reconcile why the needs of those few should outweigh ours, the many, can drive you mad. Enterprise had begun playing with some exciting possibilities in season 4 - Coto was working, cool TOS threads were emerging, the promise of that fan holy grail of canon unity and greater in-universe cohesion and then bam... gone. Utter disregard for creativity and ideas and fanbase excitement.
Like the 90s Trek serieses I grew up with, SGA reigns supreme in the repeat viewing stakes, and also like 90s Trek is supreme comfort viewing. It nailed the plot, action, characterisation, family dynamic, humour, performances. Hope. Optimism. *Fun.* Joe was spot on about the adding the lightness and self-deprecation. Like O'Neill, Shepherd was an unconventional, emotionally intelligent, evolved alpha male character. Seeing that was immediately engaging and so much more interesting than the alternative. That the producers couldn't see this golden goose still bafffles me. That they would choose to kill it in favour of a series which singularly failed to bring anyone hope, optimism and fun, is myopic at best. I've never spoken to a SGA fan who isn't really, really a SGA fan. We all still mourn its loss. Thank you Joe for your grace, and for sharing your stories and insights, and to Connor and the Shuttlepod team for an informative and (for me) somewhat cathartic episode. I think I needed that. 🖖💙
Love this interviews! Joe and the team needs to come back! My gut feeling it will!
TSS is phenomenal! Thank you for all the hard work and having the best guests! ty!
"Vegas" set that series to a high bar, with Joe, and his wraith showdown, indelible. X-files meets Rockford Files. MGM, get your (studio) head out of the sand, and bring that IP to market, again, please?
It's up to Amazon Studios. Yeah, MGM is a part of that bc Amazon bought them out, but I'm happy to tell you that we're getting a SG1 *continuation* movie + TV series.
Let's hope these idiots at Amazon don't screw this up so the tv series CAN start; following the movie, that is. 😃
Yeah, I think "Vegas" was my favorite SG Atlantis episode.
As a total and utter SG1 and SGA (and even SGU!) long time fan, this is a real treat :)
So good having Joe Flanigan on from SGA fame. @EricaLaRose @Mark Cartier , Connor, Dom, all the mods and @ShuttlepodShow you all are doing a fabulous job opening up our world to talent and those who worked on our favourite shows! I'm on Stargate SG-1 rewatch now and cannot wait to get to Atlantis! Much love to you guys and continued support to your show! ❤🖖🏾
Could you please stop whispering the show? I could hear whispering in the background & it was distracting.
But, as a *Gater,* this ep. meant SO much to me. 🥰
*I'm a huge* #StarGate *fan & this was EPIC having Joe on!*
Iah tho, keep up the great work w the great guests.👍 Really enjoying this podcast series! 💖🤩✨️
This show is 🔥🔥🔥
Yes. It’s a production tool which is normally auto muted for the mix. However, for whatever reason in this one episode that didn’t happen and episode was live before it was noticed. Sorry y’all.
Loved this one so much! Joe was already awesome in my book but when he picked Hitchens and Bach... well, that just moved him to Super Awesome status.
A lot of interesting insight shared by Joe Flanigan. Atlantis is a great show.
And SG-1 improved greatly when MacGyver left. Ben Browder and Claudia Black were exactly who was needed to keep SG-1 a good show for the last two seasons.
I wish they'd get back together and do a Stargate Atlantis movie.
you provide the financing and take the risk and they'll do it!
@@mavfan1 So you don't want it?
@@mavfan1Flannigan had financing for more SGA but was turned down.
@@LeoH3L1 I think he's saying that movies are high risk and so are TV shows.
The discussion about guns and social media at the start is something I wouldn't ever expect from your show and was so, so, so great ❤
I totally agree, that was so interesting and refreshing.
Oh, wow! Thank you for the compliment. You are rad.
Such a great episode.
Thanks for all your hard work guys
Just want to say that I really love the fact you guys are doing Stargate, too. I am a huge fan of both and I will always remember the moment we met Michael on SGA and I realized it was Trip Tucker!
Another great guest Joe Flanigan. Shuttlepod bravo 👏
I listen to these on road trips up north, you know its a good one when you dont notice that two hours have gone by.
Really hope Amazon brings the Stargate franchise back. So many more stories to tell.
I was in the "Midway" episode of Stargate Atlantis. Lots of fun, great crew. My character died!
This confirms EVERYTHING the hardcore fans of Stargate Atlantis believed at the time. We followed the ratings of SGU and we knew it was bad from the beginning because it lost the humor, it lost the quirkiness. Atlantis was already a GOLDEN GOOSE and they killed it for the grass on the other side of the fence...LITTERALLY!
100% agree. While they were chasing the tone of Battlestar - they weren't thinking about the fans... how often do you rewatch Battlestar versus SGA? I enjoyed Battlestar at the time, but I don't revisit it tbh, and I re-watch programs in the whole as a life habit. What I revisit the most is Voyager and SGA... that's how you know as a fan how franchises peaked imo. Have never re-watched Battlestar beyond originally getting the series DVDs. Whereas the SGA box is falling apart from repeatedly going there.
@@RobotiSal I never watched a full episode of Battlestar Galactica. I've seen tons of CZcams clips though...looks very dark and moody.
I rematch SG-1 About every 5 years...and SGA...the best parts like First Strike, Seige frankly the first 2 seasons and season 4 were absolute fire! The tone was light but more intense than SG1 they really didn't know what they had there.
What a wonderful guest. Fascinating to hear about the behind-the scenes machinations of the industry. As a huge Stargate fan, my friends and I pretty much guessed the reason behind the tone of SG-U, but were also baffled by it because SG fans and BSG fans didn't really cross-pollinate. This explains so much. Such a shame, really. That said, I think SG-U could have made it, after all it wasn't until the 3rd season that TNG really hit its stride.
I 100% agree that the SG franchise never got the critical recognition it deserved. I think it suffered from the 'art is angst' mentality. As authors such as Terry Pratchet showed, a lighter tone doesn't mean a lack of depth, paucity of ideas, or a lack of meaning. Also, I feel SG lacked pretention--wearing the derivative elements of it's stories on its sleeve; and I think some people take this as a lack of creativity or originality when in reality, ALL art and artists stand on the shoulders of those that came before (hell, Shakespeare used a Norse legend composed by Saxo Grammaticus as the basis of Hamlet). SG was just cheerfully honest about it (in the same way X-files celebrated it's influences, casting the stars of the shows that influenced it--Roy Thinnes, Darren McGavin).
P.S. I absolutely loved the Vegas episode of Atlantis. It was probably my favorite episode of the while series.
Thanks! This was an excellent interview with Joe Flanigan. I loved his insight into the business / production side of the Stargate franchise, as well as the entertainment business, and the challenges of being a TV actor. His inside view into the inner workings at MGM were truly fascinating. I'm really impressed with his business savvy and I feel bad that he (nor Connor) ever got a chance to direct while they were on their respective shows.
I do have to admit that while I really loved both SG-1 and SG Atlantis, I also really liked SGU and was so disappointed when it got cancelled.
Thank you!!!
This guy was one of my first childhood crushes 😂 i still love re watching atlantis john sheppard is such a good character i always wished he had romance that they added a female doctor for him 😂 one can wish i miss this show deserved more seasons
Was a great interview with Joe, loved all three stargates. Only comment you could hear some other whispering during the recording.
Yeah the whispering was annoying, especially when you're wearing headphones 😢
As someone who just discovered the stargate universe and picked atlantis first, i effing loved that show and binged watched the heck out of it in about 3 weeks.
Just started watching SGA for like the 5x. Awesome to see Shepard and Michael together again!
Here’s a little reeducation the second amendment is not for your hunting rights. I love the show. Keep on keeping on.
Thank you and have a very blessed day.
❤️
Awesome show. Joe is a real talker 😂😂 I hope he will start his new Joe versus Joe podcast soon. I'm looking forward to it 🤞
You were Michael? Holy shit. Michael was a fantastic charachter. Amazing performance. What a story
yea Conner did really well in most scenes as Michael...Trip was a decent character too, but his Florida accent was terrible. not that big of a deal... but for me it ruined my immersion.
Happy Birthday for yesterday Dominickers (that's what hilarious mums call their sons named Dominic). I just watched you in Species IV. Nice work. You jammy jammy git 🙂
Just re-watched SGA still bloody great. I wish they'd make good TV like they used to.
Joe probably isn't interested, but Stargate SG-1 was actually a much more serious show in its first five seasons on Showtime. It had a more grounded military/USAF tone and was about contemporary late-90s geologists, archaeologists, and other experts getting in way over they heads trying to understand the unknown with the tools at their disposal, quite unlike the later seasons which almost transformed into a superhero show. Earlier seasons' episodes addressed topics like United States imperialism, war crimes, nuclear proliferation, corruption in the senate and military, the economics of soldiers' lives, and a variety of ethical quagmires.
There was also more character drama involving things like the accidental suicide of Jack O'Neill's son, and the abduction and violation of Daniel's wife. The Scifi channel wanted a more adventure-toned show, and Richard just began playing himself the longer the show went on. He did some phenomenal dramatic acting in the early seasons - he's capable of it, he just isn't interested in it for whatever reason. SG-1 had basically become a parody of itself by the time Atlantis was introduced.
TRIP TUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOA! a new YT Channel I must now follow!
If ever a show needed to come back it’s this one, it had such a strong following. We never got a proper ending. I’m sure they could get back the main cast again, even Jason. Joe was great in SGA and I really miss David Hewlett, he brilliant as McKay.
Surprised you guys didn't touch on Joe Flanigan trying to buy the franchise from MGM and restart production in Europe
That happened??
While I will always be a trekkie I love SG1 and Stargate Atlantis, the tone of both shows were brilliant, you need to have humor or the more serious dramatic moments loose there power if a show is constantly dark and serious
Joe was just so enjoyable to watch and listen too, reminded me of Jonathan Frakes, very laid back but extremely well spoken. I’m playing catch up again but another brilliant episode, well done to all on such a fantastic show. Best wishes 🍷🍷Ed from South Australia 🇦🇺
wish you had mentioned "see" which had jason mamoa & david hewlett in it. it was a great show & fantastic to see the 3 of them back together in the same show
I miss Atlantis . The best sci-fi series ever created
Okay I guess I'll be watching Stargate 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for leaving some of the behind the scenes, cool to see 🙃
I’m (kinda) rewatching Enterprise, as I watched some when it premiered, some since and some in sequence. Now I’m doing it all. Enjoying it. Wish I’d been more open when it was coming out. Looked up to see what y’all are doing now for work and found this channel. I LOVE IT. ty for giving me more work to enjoy. Take care, you both and your crew and guests. 👊🖖
The moment Connor ponders why he did not remember what the Wraith queen's hair color was by mumbling: "I did cut her head off". Priceless! :-)
Hahaha
Loved SGAtlantis!
I have been re-watching Atlantis and it still holds up well, plus Joe is the coolest man on telly and has the best hair ever! Enjoy your legacy! Same goes for Enterprise 😊
thanks for sharing this. I welcomed Joe Flanigan role as Col Shephard right from the start filling shoes of Col O'Neil in SGA.
really liked his open and relaxed conversation in this video.
Enterprise & Atlantis, 2 great shows cut in their prime. Why? meanwhile there are shows out there, not even making a 10th of what these 2 did, running on prime time. And the rights for Stargate has been locked up and nothing is done with it anymore, one of the greatest science fiction shows ever run on TV.
Recently re-watch SGA and had forgotten how much fun it was. The Shepard/Rodney dynamic was great.
And have to agree that SGU was just too dark to be a SG show, if they had given it a little more distance it might have worked. It also didn't help that pretty much every character, other than Eli, was unlikable.
How am I just now finding out about this podcast? I met Connor a long time ago during a Star Trek convention in Illinois, may have been the only guy there who was talking to him about Stargate at a Star Trek convention. Still my favorite villain in Stargate and I love the work he did in Trek. Also got to give a shout out to Joe, loved Col. Shepherd..
about to watch this now. thx for doing this interview, because joe has been one of my favorite Sci fi leads! Atlantis is one of my favorite sci-fi shows of all time!
Joe should have been the next Indiana Jones!
Honestly, that's a perfect idea. I would watch that for days.
2:04:16 Erica saying "The Kardashian Liberation Front" after Joe and Connor made a joke about DS9 having "Kardashians"! 😂😂
The way Mark laughed at her saying "The Orion syndicate", wheezing it hit him so hard. I just about died....LOLOLOL
First I want to say, great show , and Joe Flanigan is absolutely my favorite Stargate actor out of all Stargate series.
FYI a 30.06 round is much larger and more destructive then a .223 or 5.56 which is the most common rounds in an AR-15 platform.
Not trying to sound like an advocate for any, but just pointing out that the ignorance of facts is what gets most arguments started when it comes to debating, or just casually discussing firearms.
Joe Flanagan, a living legend and the soul of SG Atlantis.
I was definitely one of those fans who was so pissed about Atlantis’ cancellation, I refused to watch SGU. Still have never seen it. It would be great if they made an Atlantis mini series to wrap up the story line. Nostalgia sells these days!
SGU wasn’t terrible. Plus many characters from the other shows are in some episodes.
This was a great interview! I have love for just about all sci-fi thanks to Star Trek. Joe did a great job with Atlantis. I would love to see a spinoff series.
That Hugh Jackman story that Flanigan told has inspired me to find time to get in my workout. I'm going to be riding my bike every morning to start my day
I just can't beleive they have not continued the stargate universe yet. It was their biggest franchise.
Do you mean SG:Atlantis Joe Flanigan…can’t wait😊.
