Star Sightings

[Highlander II]

speaking of Dan Shea -- he was also RDA's stunt double on MacGyver (more info from MacList)

and Michael Greenburg -- one of the exec's on SG-1 - worked on MacGyver too -- (as did several other of the production co)

 

[mystery]

Michael Shanks was in some sci-fi show, don't remeber the name right now... kevin sorbo *shudders* has the lead I think, though... I think MS was a bad guy... can't really say more, only saw the trailer...

*sigh* no-one understands me

I saw Omac (of the Tollan) tonight on the Sopranos. He was playing an Army officer in charge of a military school. It was weird.

just something to add to a post a few back by shiloh....
gerald plunkett also playe the gamekeeper, as well as nemm and tuplo. (that's pretty cool playing 3 different characters in one show.)

Andromeda.

That was such a good episode. MS was Gabriel, an android just like the ships avatar Rommie.

no prob ---- i watch way too much tv --- well - okay - probably not as much as i used to ----

MacGyver, Law & Order, Stargate SG-1, JAG, The Pretender, Profiler (only to see Robert Davi), The Sentinel, Highlander -- i think that's everything ---- (or at least most of it) -- i used to watch a lot more --- but networks cancel everything ---- bad bad networks - they cancel the good stuff and leave the crap --- ugh --------

Escape from Mars...

My local Blockbuster had two copies of Escape from Mars, the 1999 film that earlier posters couldn't remember the name of and confused with Mission to Mars.

MS is good in it (his character spends quite a bit of time making bricks out of martian soil to build a shelter, and endearingly wants to build a home with his own hands on the red planet).

Some of the themes and issues brought up in the film are very interesting... at times, the mission to mars, funded by a huge megacorporation, made us think of what space exploration might become if Microsoft got their hands on it! But there were times watching it when my friend and I couldn't help but expect the MST3K crew to pop up in the corner and start commenting on the film's inconsistencies or odd science... but even then, we laughed quite a bit and had a great time watching it.

Yeah, that's it... I've only seen the trailer, found it on some page... Wish I could see the entire ep...

 

[Highlander II]

okay - here we go -

Steve Makaj -- was on First Wave - w/ Peter Wingifield and Jim Byrnes (played Joe Dawson on Highlander - hasn't been on SG-1 tho - just tossing a tidbit - that ep was smack full of 'recognizable' guest stars)

Armin Shimmerman - one of the Nox - was Quark on Star Trek - DS9, and he was Laura Holt's neighbor in an ep of Remington Steele --

i think i've listed all of my Colin Cunningham sightings - he was in the ep "Mirror Image" of the Sentinel

Peter Wingfield was in the ep "Foreign Exchange" of the Sentinel --

umm --- can't think of anything else at the moment ---- but - give me time -------

 

[Morrigan]

How did this happen Ma'tec and H2? You both saw the 6th Day and you didn't see Steven Rayner as the bad dude's PA?

Yeah, sorry I don't know his name, but then again, he was an @$$ in The Curse, so he can just die in a helicopter crash or something

Shut up about the Senitnel!

<wail> Sci-Fi replaced it with Friday the 13th!!!!!!!

<sob> I think it is time ot go back to the "like a weasel on crack" state......

 

[skydiver]

i was watching andromeda, last week's eps i think, the one with the robots and the 'consensus' anyway, anyone else who saw it did you think the bad robot looked familiar?

his voice was hard to pick out but i recognize that snarling lip anywhere(even under silver body paint)...it was zippy!!! that's where he went after sg-1 kicked his tush, he got turned into a robot.

oh - and one more Sentinel sighting -- "Out of the Past" has JR Bourne (Martouf)

 

[KatDonovan]

All right! I just read through the entire thread so here go's.

Just rented Best in Show and The 6th Day
Colin Cunningham was Randy the butcher in Best in Show, Saw Teryl R and DSD. Funny thing was, in the very first scene of the movie, the psychiatrist who's talking to the couple about their dog catching then having sex, is the guy who played Harlan in Tin Man and Double Jeopardy!

The 6th Day

Colin Cunningham plays Tripp, the anit-clone fundamentalist.
The guy that plays Steven Rayner was Tony Goldwyns char's PA. His tecnician was the guy who played Tuplo, in Broca Divide! Saw DSD! And also, the security guard who Arnie takes at gunpoint up to DR. Wier's lab, played the guard who took SG1 to the infirmary in the beginning of Foothold!( I think)

that's all I've noticed for now

Update for Morrigan

okay -- here we go ---

the Sentinel -- SciFi has dropped it from their schedule due to 'budgetary' stuff -- don't know the whole thing - this is the info i got from the RBFC -- but, it's supposed to return in Jan 2002 -- however, there is a chance it may be back by Oct 2001 -- so - just keep watching -- if i get any more info, i'll let you know --

The X-Files connection continues!

Tom McBeath is a police dectetive in the X-Files episode "3" from the begining of the second season. Had a ball yesterday when it reaired in the repeat timeslot after the news.
