Great interview! Wow! I knew I was right! David's awesome. And hysterical! Crossing over to steal food and leave snarky messages. hehe. Now I'm all hyped up for Atlantis.

LOVED it, Darren. Totally loved it. Am also insanely jealous of you. I hope he decides to do cons...

[Newbie]

Nice!!! So I guessed right , earlier, then!!! Lol...*loves himself* tnx a lot guys...i was waiting for that from the start

[Darren]

Yes, Shadowmaat, I think you even called the power bar thing! Way to channel.

[bcmilco]

Great interview! very funny.

I'd recomment reading along if you're going to listen to it, there are a few spots were it's hard to hear

[morjana]

Terrific interview, David (with David).

What a great sense of humor!

And you're right -- the Metrorail does stop often!

Thank you for all your hard work.

I'm going back to read it again.

Ah,bliss ! Most excellent interview,and I loved every minute of the audio version ! (Can't be easy,doing an interview in their lunch-tent,with the train noise to cope with too.Busy place !)
DH really comes across (to me), as a prankster, and a guy who doesn't take life too seriously. Cool attitude !

[Iskandra]

That was too funny! I knew I liked McKay as a character, but David Hewlett has now made me want to watch Atlantis....and I wasn't so convinced I'd watch it before that interview....thanks for the interview, Darren! Made my day over here in Germany!

[Indy]

WOW! That was fantastic. David is quite the talker. He's so deadpan funny. I love it! So can't wait for Atlantis now.

Great interview Darren. I'm so jealous!

[ShadowMaat]

Yes, Shadowmaat, I think you even called the power bar thing! Way to channel.

I did, didn't I? How scary is that? Maybe I should start predicting the return of Luke and Jonas's re-inclusion into the show (either show) and other fun things.

I'm going to have to listen to the audio portion as soon as I have some free time. David sounds like he'd be fun to interview... if maybe a little dangerous. Good thing you DID get it all on tape. hehe.

Still love the interview. Still a happy camper. Thanks for sharing!

Wow! Great interview Darren. David Hewlett is just as fun and snarky as McKay - he should definitely do cons. I can't wait to see him in Atlantis now and he makes the other characters sound like a lot of fun as well.

Of course I now have this image of the writers as prairie dogs poking their heads up when you venture into their section of the compound.

Thanks so much..

awesome! its about time =) *giggle*

you know...he was in this really bad movie called "Cube". I saw it a while back...made the whole movie worth while just to see him in it heehee.

Bad?! I thought it was awesome! Now, Cube 2 was a piece of monkey dung, but I loved the original. Guess I won't recommend Cypher to ya, then. Your poor little mind obviously isn't capable of appreciating the subtleties of good cinema. Go watch Boa vs. Python instead. It's mindless drivel, but it has lots of David looking very buff.

Hahahahahaha Cypher, i'll remember that one next time i rent movies.

Yeah, i saw cube 2, before the first one and I really didnt like that one. The first cube was really strange, and creepy *i dont like creepy movies*. I wouldnt say that Cube is the worst movie out there...but the creepy factor in it will keep me from watching that one again.

You know, i saw Boa vs. Python and didnt like that one either =/

[David]

Terrific interview, David (with David).

Actually Morjana, this was Darren's first audio interview! I just did some audio editing- he did the rest. Three cheers!
