Seeing, that my last post about 24: Sci-fi actors in 24 season 6 was so popular, I decided to make another one for season 7 which I just started (only see 7 episodes so far).
Robert Carlyle (Redemption)
24: Carl Benton
Star Gate Universe: Dr. Nicholas Rush
Tony Todd
24: General Benjamin Juma
Star Gate SG-1: Lord Haikon
Andromeda: Captain Fehdman Metis
Star Trek Voyager: Unnamed Hirogen hunter
Star Trek DS9: Jake Sisko as adult in The Visitor
Star Trek TNG/DS9: Kurn
John Billingsley
24: Michael Latham
Star Trek Enterprise: Dr. Phlox
Kurtwood Smith
24: Senator Blaine Mayer
Star Trek Voyager: Annorax in Year of Hell
Jeffrey Nordling
24: Larry Moss
Star Trek DS9: Thana Los in Past Prologue
Mark Kiely
24: Edward Vossler
Star Trek Voyager: Lasca in Non Sequitur
Nick Toth
24: Edwin Ross
Babylon 5: Exeter in The Deconstruction of Fallen Stars
Annie Wersching
24: Renee Walker (seriously hot FBI agent)

Colm Feore
24: Henry Tailor
Battlestar Galactica: President Adar (First episode only)
Bob Gunton

It’s also worth noting that co-executive producers and writers of 24 Redemption and season 7 is none other than Brannon Braga and Manny Coto, noted writers/producers from Star Trek TNG / Voyager / Enterprise.

A while back I made a post about the new Stargate Universe show, a show which I like most other Stargate fans expected to be a Science Fiction show.
At first I was skeptical, but hang in there because many shows start slow. But now I’ve just seen episode 10, and I must say, this show DOES SUCK.. It’s like they tried to copy Battlestar Galactica + Lost + Grey’s Anatomy. SGU is not a science fiction show, it’s basically Grey’s Anatomy or Desperate Housewives in a dark studio with the occasional boring trip trough a stargate to a lifeless world where they do nothing at all.
I was hoping the show would get better, but it’s just getting worse by every episode (except for episode 8 which reminded me a little bit about science fiction).
I will be very surprised if this huge pile of crap gets renewed for a second season.
I have no problems with people making drama shows, what I do have a problem with is that they change a sci-fi show into a bad drama show in a desperate hope to get stargate fans to watch it. Anyway I think I’ve watched my last episode of this crap, I gave it a fair chance but I’d rather watch SG-1 or Atlantis again.

A couple of days ago a pilot for a proposed tv series called ‘Virtuality’ was aired. The guy behind it is no other than Ronald D. More best known for his work on Star Trek and being the genius behind the new Battlestar Galactica series.
The show is about mankinds first voyage outside the solar system to search for life on a distant planet (a 10 year trip). The ship called the phaeton is equipped with a complex virtual reality system, which should prevent the crew from going insane by being stuck 10 years in a metal tube 
The pilot was very good, and I would LOVE to watch more, unfortunately Fox has not ordered any more episodes, but perhaps if enough people get interested, that will change.
If you live in the US you can watch the pilot at Hulu:

A dying leader will know the truth of the Opera House. The missing Three will give you the Five who come from the home of the Thirteenth. You are the harbinger of death, Kara Thrace. You will lead them all to their end.
End of Line

It’s officially summer. Me, Stacy and two friends went ocean kayaking today, just for an hour or so by the docks. And it was pretty nifty, I might join the kayak club to get free access to a ocean kayak, but the security course I have to take first probably wont be held again until Autumn 
In other news:
- Hopefully Nemi will be getting a new friend in 44 days (+ 6-8 weeks).
- I started to play WOW again (lvl62 priest FTW)
- I’ve not eaten any meat for 5 months
- I got a new sweeet monitor (Syncmaster 22″ widescreen)
- I won 2 out of 4 dungeons & dragons miniatures games in one sitting (new record )
- I watched all of Stargate (just waiting for season 4 of atlantis to start now)
- Almost done watching Battlestar Galactica Season 3 (Damn the end of season 2 and start of season 3 was totally insane)
- I started watching Dexter, which is pretty good so far

After a grueling week of influenza I almost feel like myself again.
I saved up enough strength to play the two tutorial missions last week, got 2 hours of gameplay before I had to go to bed. But now that I’m all better I can try out the skirmish mode when I get home from work. The stuff from the two missions look really nice, and with Michael Ironside (Starship troopers), Tricia Helfer & Grace Park (both from Battlestar Galactica) in the game cinematics, this should be pretty interesting. The game is released in Norway around 29th or March, and since I’m moving on April 1st. this means I wont be able to preorder the game by mail.. Hope I still get my hands on the Kane Edition, maybe I should go to a store and reserve a copy today.. damn.. It just occurred to me that I wont have any time to play the game since we have to move all my stuff.. gaaaagh!
I haven’t had the flu since I was in primary school, and it was much worse than I could remember.. I was looking forward to just lay on the couch a few days and watch TV, but it was really uncomfortable and I was pretty much unable to watch TV or operate a computer
At least Stacy got sick as well (misery really DO love company), but I don’t think Nemi got it, which is a consolation of sorts. Maybe it’s because that little furry vermin eats much better(healthier) than us and maybe got a better immune system
aaanyway.. Season ending of heroes should be “available” today, got to see how that turns out.. Seems UFO:ET has been postponed, but 16. April is not that far away, I’ll probably be to busy moving and playing C&C 3 to notice
