Hmmm. I could've sworn I'd answered all of the questions. Sorry. This year was such a whirlwind of work that I don't even remember. If you have questions, ask away and I'll answer now that I have some free time.
Oh, and to correct a gross misconception - I'm not a margarita man. I'm more of a daquiri guy.

Hey, Figured you have to work every angle!! LOL
Ok seriously, With the announcement of a Season 9 - how many changes did you have to make to the ending of SG1 What about SG Atlantis? or were you expecting SG Atlantis to be renewed and filmed accordingly?

Originally posted by Scarym1Hey Joe. Thanks for all your hard work. Would love to see you at Concept in Montreal?
Any chance we will find out what really happened to Steven Raynor. It doesn't have to be a whole ep (even tho I would LOVE THAT), it could just be a line or two. It would be great to see Sarah, Daniel and Steven in another ep together!!!!!!!!!!!
As for Steven and Sarah - I'd love to follow up on both their characters. I've had a Steven story kicking around for a while and, maybe, will get around to fleshing it out. Sarah is also a great character I would love to explore further - but, again, it depends on finding the right story for her.

Originally posted by SueSHello Joe,
Thanks for answering our questions. I have 4 questions/comments.
1. Several people have mentioned that Ben Browder and Michael Shanks look alike. I wonder if that will play a factor in the show. (Some people have been speculating that maybe Ben's character might be related to Daniel.)
2. I was reading on an Australian site that they've decided to show Prometheus Unbound before Gemini because, according to the site, "Gemini has a tie in with Atlantis" I'm not sure of their reasoning for this because I thought Prometheus Unbound had a stronger tie-in to Atlantis than Gemini. Also, they will be showing Moebius Part 1 on Jan 6 (as their 13th episode). I was under the impression that starting with Reckoning, all the episodes were kind of related. I.e. they had to play in sequence in order to make any sense.
Just looking for your opinion on stations that air episodes out of sequence.
3. Are Reckoning, Threads, Citizen Joe, and Moebius related, or can they all be considered stand-alone episodes?
4. Finally, any word yet on whether or not Threads will air as a ninety minute episode? If that doesn't happen, will the ninety minute version be available on the DVD?
2. We don't have any control over when the broadcasters choose to broadcast the episodes. But, for what its worth, I think it would be unwise for anyone to watch Moebius before watching the rest of the episodes leading up to it.
3. There are threads that run through Reckoning, Threads, and Moebius. They are stand-alones, but they figure into the overall arc of season 8. In other words, you're better of watching these episodes in sequence.
4. I'm not sure what was decided with regard to Threads - but the 90 minute version should find its way to DVD.

Originally posted by Dana_JeanneDo you know who/what Ben Browder will play on the show? Will he be in all 20 episodes? Is he going to be a major character and part of SG-1? Are we going to have any stories with mythology and exploration in them? Any chance of Daniel being less of a gun-toting military guy and more of the brilliant liguist/archaeologist he used to be? How about those Furlings? Nick? Aris Boch?
Do I want to know everything about S9? Yes
Will you be at any of the US Creation Cons in 2005?
As you've probably already heard - Ben will play a military type, Lieutenant Colonel, who will be leading SG-1 during Carter's absence. Yup, a major character, and he'll be appearing in all 20 episodes. We're working on a variety of stories at the moment, some to do with exploration and some to do with the show's mythology as well. You'll get to see "the many facets" of Daniel Jackson in season 9 (and check out the second half of season 8 as well). Furlings? Nick? Aris Boch? Maybe, maybe, maybe. As for Creation Cons - I don't think so. The writers don't get invited. But maybe if JAffa #2 from episode 37 backs out...

Originally posted by ShadowMaatI was being sarcastic, Darren. It was the second silliest idea I could come up with, the first involving Poochinski being transformed into a human. Although I guess I'd better not give Joe ideas about THAT either.
It's hard to think up questions Joe might actually be able to answer.
Any chance of McKay meeting up with Carter again? Rodney can do better than Sam, but whatever. They've both changed a lot. Might be interesting to see.

Originally posted by the dancer of spazHey JM! Sorry if this has been asked before, but how much interaction have the two casts had together, so far? I know that SGA thinks that SG1 is really friendly, and all that, but has there been a lot of interaction between the two? I'd imagine it'd be pretty difficult for the two casts NOT to interact, right?

Originally posted by aeromathleteThanks for coming out and answering the fans' questions! Okay here's my little query:
Do you have any scientific advisers or actual scientists working for you guys who provide input on the technical ideas presented on the show? Several sci-fi based shows and movies have academic-type advisers, and even the creator of Futurama (though that show can't really be compared to SG-1 very well. ) has a Ph.D. in math or applied math or something along those lines.
I'm just asking because I'm interested in how you come up with your ideas and general technobabble (whether it be plausible or jibberish).

Originally posted by Hathor999A question for Joe Mallozzi: Can you tell us please what´s happend to the plans for a direct-to-DVD-movie set into season 2? So much I understand was it filmed directly after season 8. Will this movie ever released or have the cast changes killed all plans for this? I would love it to have a new season 2 episode (with the original cast!).

Originally posted by binkpmmcJoe - I read AT will be out for the first 5 eps - is this confirmed? (obviously things could change after the baby is born but as it stands now is it set at 5 and have things been finalized with AT?) Will Carter still be leader of SG1 and will that aspect of her character have any substantive development in S9? Thanks for your time on the forum.
