Ask David Nykl! (Possible Spoilers for Stargate Atlantis)

[David Nykl]

Hi David,

This is so cool. You have really been doing alot to reach out to your fans. Your efforts are greatly appreciated

Now that you are officially on GateWorld, does this mean you are going to check/lurk on your other threads here? And nope it won't stop me from posting cause I am having too much fun!!!

Well that's very kind of you, Ms Hawk. Thank you.
.
Um, I lurk all over the internet when I do sit down to this thing. No place is safe from my random sampling robots. However, most of the time I'm dealing with real-time issues like schedules, tide charts, hose couplings, arrival times, departure times, other human beings, sheet music, phone calls, chess games, chinese food, reports, writing, auditioning, and oil changes. Not in that order.

Hi Mr. Nykl!

Nice that someone from SGA is here. Hoping not to read special threads.

Well, I'm from germany and I've read that you will come to the Wolf Crossroads Convention this year? And will you be there all the three days?

Maybe we'll met. I'm going there on Satarday and have no idea what awaits me. My husband stay by my sun (4years) and I'm (31) crazy enough to go there....


Congrats to such a fabulous serial!!! And my compliments and greetings to everone! Special the leader JF

Thank you. See in in Germany.

[David Nykl]

Wow, first ever post on GW. Spiffy.

I am a little curious, what was the Czech joke you told Brad Wright when you were cast way back in Season 1? Surely it's not the only one you know?

Thank you kindly for your time here! The next time around, I'll perhaps ask about the Vegemite.

That's amazingly odd that you'd know that I told Brad Wright A Czech joke three years ago! Because I did! How'd you know that? Did I say that somewhere?
.
It's a pretty funny joke. It goes like this:

[David Nykl]

Welcome Mr, Nykl.

Zelenka's arguments with McKay have been one of the most enjoyable things in the show, yet McKay's few appearances in SG1 have always been as interesting due to his interactions with Carter. I am just wondering if you've been told that you'd be getting less of these confrontable scenes with McKay (such as him calling Zelenka "Dr. Fumbles McStupid") so they can add more McKay/Carter scenes rather than your scenes with Hewlett.

Goodness no. I don't think anybody would want "less" of whatever it is that works for the show...

[David Nykl]

Goodness no. I don't think anybody would want "less" of whatever it is that works for the show...

oh and thanks for liking those scenes. Their fun to work on...

[David Nykl]

Hi David!!!

Unfortunately I didnt get to meet you at P2..I was there for the ADB screeining and the Friday party...

Out of all of the intricate techno speeches you have had to give over the past seasons...are there any words that you still cant get your tongue around????

thanks!!
Tina

Umm hard technical stuff... yeah there's legions. I remember fragments: "...otherwise they could easily reverse engineer their own intergalactic engine from the wreckage on the sea bottom." - is one noteworthy one, and others I remember best by parsing them out into their logical beats.
.
I find one or two word interjections the hardest kind of line to remember. Because it's not that you have to remember a simple word, it's that you have to remember to remember that you're to speak. You know?

[SaberBlade]

oh and thanks for liking those scenes. Their fun to work on...

I think you'd find it hard to find a fan who doesn't like those scenes (except for those rare anti-Rodney/anti-Zelenka heretics). Thank you for answering my question.

[SoulReaver]

(except for those rare anti-Rodney/anti-Zelenka heretics)

you mean sholvahs



btw welcome to the forum, doc

Last one for today...

no no, one more...plz...

ok...a question...a question...hmm...ah yes

Mr Nykl> what are your favorite Sci-Fi shows (outside the SG-series of course) ?
(shows and/or movies)

[CeeKay Sheppard]

Better get that Sheppy Whump looked at. It doesn't sound good. Do you get dizzy?

Heehee, you could say that. LOL

In one of your previous posts, you mentioned sheet music––are you a musician, too?

[SlytherinGal]

awww...he had to go well, he will pick up where he left off tomorrow

[Admiral Mappalazarou]

Hi again David

Is there any shows you would love to star in? To broaden that question, what is your dream role?

[telpethoniel]

Hey David
I've got one question that's just been knawing at me for ages.
You know how Carter is coming to Atlantis for 14 episodes in season 4...and you know how Rodney get's heaps distracted and weird when she's around.. and also given that she's one of the best scientists on Stargate and usually is the one that solves problems of a scientific nature that Rodney can't handle when he was at SG1.
Before in Atlantis Rodney & Zelenka have put their heads together to work stuff out. Carter coming to Atlantis, brilliant character that she is, isn't going to detract from the relationship between McKay & Zelenka is it? Or is Carter just going to come in and take over? Hopefully your character won't get pushed into the background because of her arrival.

All the best for the future
Tel

Dear Mr. Nykl,

I love your work, especially your comic timing.

As part of your work on Atlantis, what do you really hate to do?

[gavo2o]

Hello Mr Nykl, just an easy or difficult one depending on your opinion from me

So far what was your favorite episode to film out of the first three seasons of Atlaintis

[Pocus]

Hello and Welcome to GateWorld.

I am so glad that you are willing to spend a little time with us. I really love Zelenka and love when he gets upset with Rodney. Although I think my favorite scene was possibly your first one. It was 38 minutes and Elizabeth is bugging Zelenka about a solution and he says "Stop talking please" and gives a little smile to her! I knew right then and there I was going to love this character!

I am really looking forward to seeing you in Eureka. It is such a quirky show. What type of character are you playing?

[Jason_Clement]

Hi Dave, you rule. Thank you for coming to share time with your worshippers.

My question is...is Zelenka going to form a rock band with some Atlantis people? You know. Lead sing, play some guitar, make some rocking czech-other galaxy tunes...

:O

[Geral]

Hey David, it's really cool you to see a Czech actor. You don't see many in the US and it's nice having a fellow Czech in a great show.

Question: In a chess match, who would win? Dr. McKay or your chacter, Dr. Z?

What about off stage, Hewlett vs yourself?

[HyperCaz]

Oma's bunny boy!!! What happens to all the stuff/gifts that fans give you? Apart from the squirrels abducting them...

This being from one of the crazy Australian "bunny boy" conspirators......beware screencaps.

[Sheppard's Delight]

Better get that Sheppy Whump looked at. It doesn't sound good. Do you get dizzy?
.
I think the first four episodes that I've been involved in will be "sheppy faves" simply because Sheppy is in them. He's always in them. He's our hero!

Well actually - everytime Sheppy gets whumped I do get rather dizzy!!! (just before I pass out)

Thank you for answering my question & I agree all eps with Shep in are faves of the Sheppy fans!

[Allestian]

Hi David, me again.



I was wondering. We all know that Zelenka can't swim (A bit awkward with where Atlantis is ) so...is there any chance of having a member of the Atlantis expedition teaching him in the near future???

A few of your raving fan girls would like to know.
