That was probably one of the best interviews that I have read on Gateworld. Denise (skydiver) - simply amazing work.
Carmen Argenziano is a very interesting person I must say. Usually having a recurring or one-off role in many television shows must be pretty hard to deal with. It's good to see that Carmen has some qualities of Selmak and Jacob Carter!
He's a great bloke and a fantastic actor and I wish him all the best.

[Kliggins]

Thank you Denise; fantastic interview with Carmen.

[CKO]

nice work Denise he sounds like he's a very laid back actor

[Skydiver]

[KatG]

I bet! It was a good interview--you covered a lot of bases. Interesting to hear all the Stargate stuff (it was neat that he mentioned the orginal Selmak actress) but I like hearing about other stuff from the actors too. Nice job.
I'd love for them to work out a flashback or something for him to come back for an episode.

if you look at his imdb entries, he's got hundreds of roles he's played and a career that's spanned decades. so yeah, i was very interested in the stargate stuff, but also there's so much more to him and his career than the 25 or so episodes of Stargate he's done

Yes, wonderful, wonderful interview. One of the best I've seen with him, if not the best. I especially appreciated hearing about his non-Jake Carter roles as he's got about a quadrillion-billion of them and his theater work.

Yikes - what a great guy ... talked about SO much. Really nice interview, well done sky.

[ShimmeringStar]

Thanks for the interview Sky. I really enjoyed it and getting to know Carmen better.

[SimilarCadence]

Wow, great interview! I really enjoyed it.... I miss Jacob/Carmen a lot. As much as I loved reading what Carmen had to say about being on SG-1, I found all the "insider" information on being an actor fascinating. I guess we--or at least, I--tend to take them for granted and never give much thought to the ups and downs involved in being an actor.....

[TameFarrar]

WOO HOO I don't think I would ever erase that either

What a wonderful interview and he is so willing to share his thoughts. Great Interview

[dipsofjazz]

Wonderful interview! Thanks Denise.
It's great to hear him talk about what it's like being a 'jobbing' actor.

A very nice article Skydiver.
