All Female Team

[Killdeer]

.: ITA - 'Next Top Model' reject was the first thing I thought. They do look like models, except Porter, and all look lovely. No denying they are beautiful. Yet I'm still disappointed in PTB going all the way in the "hot chicks" route

Actually.....

I am disappointed about that too, but as far as the individual casting goes....Janina is the one who pushes it over the edge, IMO. Nicole is a good choice for Dr Porter, Christina is a good choice for Major Teldy IMO - she's guest starred on just about everything (kind of like Jessica Steen) and I've always liked her in the roles I've seen her in. And we already knew about Leela. But Janina - that just pushes the whole thing over the edge into an SGC's Hottest lineup.

Any ideas on their nationalities? I'm guessing Dusty will be Indian and the rest American...

Leela Savasta was born and raised in Vancouver, Canada. She is also a dual citizen with the United States...

Nicole de Boer! Geat!


Maybe they put her together with McKay in a box and make The Cube - 15 years later (no, I dont wish that, really - but I'd love a hint, a quote ore something).

And for the hot chick thingie: it isn't really bothering me. They are actors and they look different when they wake up in the morning before they go into mask. OK, they might be prettier than most of us but then - they are actors.

Is this in earnest? There's going to be an all-female team? Not to mention an all-female team that do indeed look like models. How about put a couple of women on Lorne's team? Why should they be separating out the genders in to different teams!?

Seeing Nicole De Boer on the show would be cool though.

The rest of it.....I'll have to wait and see.

I believe it is just for this one episode, 'Whispers'...

"Said hello [to] Paul McGillion back who dropped by the production offices on his way to his wardrobe fitting for 'The Seed.' I pitched him 'Whispers.' He was predictably delighted at the prospect of being stranded off-world with an all-female team."

whooooooooooo! Christina Cox yay!!!

hope she's got the same kick ass personality that she has in Blood Ties

I guess all the people (women?) complaining about 'casting hot models' would prefer if Flanigan, Momoa, Hewlett and Smith were replaced by butt ugly guys.

Maybe having more hot female characters will even the ratio between males and females at conventions

Nicole de Boer - the best news in SGA in two years

I hope that we will meet them all more often when they are doing such an event from that.
And I hope this doesn´t mean that we will see less Lorne in S5

Having established that the all-female team is played @ least semi-descent & atrractive, strong women (both individually & as a group); I am more interested ot see the characters & how they interact with one another & Shep's Team - particularly considering alot of front line tropps are male.

Women here in the Australian Army aren't allowed to serve on front lines (don't ask me why, I've had plenty of women kick my ass over the years, I know they can hold theitr own! ); but it is good to see STARGATE & the female military characters in SGA &SG-1 giving women in the military a good wrap & showing they can be sexy/smart/sophisticated AND kick ass (literally & figuratively).

I personally wanna see more of the all-female team & wtach them whump the boys from Atlantis (preferrably Shep) & pwn the Wraith!

Nice to see Nicole again, last time I saw her was in DS9 and quite enjoyed her character despite the short run she had. I think she does look the part of a doctor so here's hoping they write her to be an interesting character.

Talking about supermodels: lol



Looks sweet, doesn`t she...

Honestly...if there is nothing to complain about, you guys are perfect in searching for something to complain.
We all know about Leela and not only SG wanted her but BSG as well...hmmm...makes you think about her as a good actress.

Christina is 36 years old for gods sake...not the mid-twen you would have expected.

Nicole is 38 years old and something you could call a scifi-veteran

Janina...well, you can see the picture. I think she fits perfectly the type of woman they wanted, according to the casting call I read.

Overall I think they made a pretty good job here. I`m totally looking forward to this one...

I noticed people moaning about the all female team expecting them to be too beautiful/look like hookers. These woman look pretty normal to me, good looking yes, but there are still some people complaining.

Maybe the next all female team could consist of women inflicted with elephantitis. Wouldn't that just be so much better? And don't forget, we have to replace Shep, Ronon and Lorne with rabid, deformed hobos too! It's gotta be a fair deal now!
