Just like his fellow director Peter DeLuise, Martin Wood appeared Hitchock like in the episodes he directed. Here’s his list. In the beginning you could just look for the big wrench and there was Sgt Siler and Martin Wood. But eventually the big wrench got the kibosh from “upstairs” and Martin was harder to find. I’m sure this will be an ongoing project as well.

Ok. Have you ever seen a cats eyes glow and flash in the light? Have you ever wondered where the writers of Stargate came up with the idea of glowing eyed aliens?? Have you ever thought your cat was trying to control you? Have you ever wondered why cat’s are SO independant?

It’s my theory that the writers of Stargate came up with the idea of for the Goa’uld when one of them had the pants scared off of them when they caught their cats eyes flash and glow in the pitch black. How many of us haven’t had the pants scared off of us by a cat’s eyes glowing and flashing?  Come on, let’s be real.  I think it’s how the Goa’uld came ino being.

I could be wrong.

Ok, you tell me.  Did the Stargate writers come up with the idea for the Replicators because they were busy fighting a loosing battle with Stink Bugs?

My girlfriend at work – Elaine H. came up with the idea that Replicators are actually Stink Bugs, only metal. Think about it. Stink Bugs are not native to the US. The came from China. So they are invaders from a land far, far away.  Replicators – ditto.  Once you get one Stink Bug in your house, you’d better start looking for more.  They don’t just come in 1’s.  Replicators – ditto.  The Stink Bugs eat everything and move on.  Replicators – ditto.  And you just can’t seem to kill Stink Bugs.  Hey and guess what – ditto on the Replicators.  They even look a like!

So, my theory is Peter DeLuise or Martin Wood or someother writer/director/producer was waging war with Stink Bugs and the light bulb went on and the Replicatots were born.  So what do you think? We’re crazy or not,

It is with a heavy heart that I say “God speed Don S. Davis.”

I will miss him.

“Baal – as in bocce?” Ok. I think Ba’al is sexy. He’s evil. But delightfully evil.  So once you get past the whole evil bit – he’s sexy. In my opinion, it’s the confidence that just oozes from him that makes him so sexy.

Cliff Simon, who plays Ba’al, does so with great ability. He makes him delightfully evil. He makes the character very believable.
