        Er, sorry, but you've confused the actual topic as mentioned in the first post. When I made the post, the party hadn't even happened so the press releases you linked to - which don't even mention Stargate - aren't really relevant.

          The press releases were interesting nonetheless--particularly that they are commissioning another series. I appreciate that they were posted.

            I can understand that, but they honestly belong in the off-topic chatter section. Heck, if David Hewlett who works on an SG show, gets a thread on his work bumped kicked down there, I think the other non-SG stuff, should go there too Like that new Mr. T reality show (shudder).

            Meanwhile back to the topic of STARGATE

            http://sg-atlantis.emedian.net/nuc.html

            now has five new images of Stargate actors from the press tour.

                  My Thursday concluded on the back lawn of the Television Critics Association summer press tour’s host hotel, standing in the shadow of a Stargate and chatting with Monkey Woman.

                  The party, sponsored by the SciFi cable network, was themed to the 10th season of the series “Stargate SG-1,” and the focal point was an actual Stargate, though passing through the 50-foot-tall ring wouldn’t land you in another part of the universe or another point in time, but rather the hotel’s cactus garden.

                    Andrew Ryan chats from the TV Critics' Tour in Los Angeles
                    Globe and Mail Update

                    TV critic Andrew Ryan is spending a few weeks in Los Angeles at the annual TV Critics' Press Tour, 18 days of fall television previews, glitzy evening events and endless celebrity interviews.
                    Michael Snider, globeandmail.com: Hello Andrew, thanks for taking the time today to chat with us. Welcome readers. Andrew is joining us from Pasadena, Calif., where he'll be filing to the paper for the next couple weeks. We're having Andrew back next Friday as well, so if we don't get to your question, you'll have another chance.

                    So Andrew, can you paint a brief picture of the atmosphere there? Is it total chaos, with flashbulbs blasting and orange juice and champagne for breakfast every day, or is it a little more of a subdued slog going from preview to preview and trying to keep interested?

                    Andrew Ryan: Well, there are some flashbulbs going off. Most of the evening events on the TV Tour are off-site, and there are usually red-carpets and so forth. Last night was a particularly strange event: A party sponsored by the Sci-Fi Channel for the departing series Stargate. The event took over the entire back lawn of the Ritz-Carlton hotel here in Pasadena, and they had spent days arranging the party. There were also people walking around dressed as superheroes, since the cable schedule included a new series called So You Think You're a Superhero, executive produced by Stan Lee. One of the characters is called "Cell Phone Girl," so you can guess her super power.

                      Death March With Cocktails

                      **snippage**

                      ...It was certainly a lot funnier than the contestants let on, or realized, until it became clear that it was really pretty important to be seen in costume and get the alloted 15, no matter how potentially embarrassing the journey. It wasn't as bad as, say, a Star Trek convention, but then again it was all unfolding at the Sci-Fi party, which had a 50 foot giant "Stargate"...uh, gate. But it looked like a plastic wheel with lights on it. Or an elaborate portal that was unable to get me out of that party as fast as I wanted to escape.

                            Another tour article:

                            http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/...7474fb&k=89750

                            PASADENA, California - They came from Vancouver, not from outer space. On this night, though, they could be forgiven for being mistaken as space aliens.

                            A strange sight, indeed. The massive stargate used in Stargate SG-1, the 10-year-old filmed-in-Vancouver sci-fi series that just cannot get respect from the critics, either in Canada or the U.S. it seems, loomed over the manicured lawns of the upscale, faux-Versailles grounds at the Ritz-Carlton Huntington Hotel.

                            Past and present Stargate stars mixed, mingled and made merry for the California natives on the occasion of Stargate's 200th episode and record-breaking 10th season: Amanda Tapping, holding her tow-headed toddler Olivia in her arms, with matching sky blue eyes; a lean, fit MacGyver-like Richard Dean Anderson, playing a gentle game of tag with his young daughter, Wylie; Michael Shanks, a serious stage actor who looked, for once, as if he'd just stepped off the moon; Christopher Judge, who, his Stargate character to the contrary, is in fact not a space alien; and Ben Browder, rested instead of restive for once, the leading man in his second cult sci-fi series in a row. (The first was the late, lamented -- and unfairly cancelled -- Farscape. )
