+++ 18-04-2007 Good news for everyone of you who love BLOGS, Mr Michael Shanks will join the club of actors writing one. His BLOG will be placed on the TV GUIIDE Website! I'll set the link up for you, when everything is ready to go!!

+++ 17-04-2007 The first very good news from MGM since month has arrived us Stargate SG1 fans!! MGM is very willing to continue with Stargate SG1, EVEN WITHOUT SciFi. So far we thought it not possible because of the contract MGM and the SciFi Channel had, but obviously someone found a good solution! The ONLY thing so far that we have to do it SUPPORT the two SG1 movies ("The Ar of Truth" and "Continuum") MGM is releasing this fall, so let us hope they will be a success!!

+++ 15-04-2007 Hey Gaters check out YOUTUBE!! MGM was so kind to place "Behind the mythology of Stargate" for all of us to watch! So enjoy it's really fantastic and hostet by Michael Shanks and Chris Judge!!!

+++ Hot off the presses we've just been informed that Mr Richard Dean Anderson singed a contract for the upcoming SG1-movie "CONTINUUM" which will be the second one of the two movies!!! YES YES YES YES YES YES

+++ Creation Entertainment Convention will be from 23rd-25th March in Vancouver and Mr Shanks will be there, the '24'- schedule will not collide with the event!!

+++ CONVENTION: 24th - 26th will be the Creation Convenrion in Chicago and we are happy to announce that Mr Shanks will be there to entertain us too!! So save your money, buy a ticket, take your holiday and fly to the Chicago!! The other two will be in Secaucus, 2-4 November and Burbank, 16-18 November also with Mr Shanks!!

+++ '24' update: Mr Shanks will appear in '24' for 4 episodes and his character name is Michael Bishop (uh, how creative)

+++ 13-03-2007 A day which will unfortunately go down in history as the day the LAST WORLD PREMIERE EPISODE of Stargate SG1 aired in Europe/GB. It is a devasting one, sure we had a party and it was an excellent episode, but it still was the END and it is breaking our little SciFi hearts.
Therefore I will open a new thread with a tribute to Stargate SG1 on 'SG1 Gatecrashers' with some thoughts from my friends and myself, it shall help to see - as time passes by - the more positive things Stargate SG1 brought to us over the last 10 years!

+++ Oki we have fought, we have wished, we have pleaded. We have sent tissue boxes, set ads, collected money - a lot - wrote to newspapers, magazines, MGM Studios and SciFi. Nothing had helped. Santa didn't bought us Stargate SG1 back.
Only thing we know now is that: there will be two movies for Stargate SG1. Shooting starts this year. One will continue the "Ori Storyline" the other will be extracted from former SG1 storylines. We also know that the whole cast except of RDA has signed the contract.
We know that Amanda Tapping will join SG Atlantis for 14 episodes which I personally do not like a lot.
We know that there were rumours about a 3rd series with main character Dr Daniel Jackson which I doubt a lot and has not been confirmed by Mr Shanks. The Sg1 writers said something about a 3rd series yes but it's not clear weather anyone of the Sg1 cast will appear in it, because certain forces want to make the show younger. What bloody nonsence is that!!

so my personal conclusion is: I am terrible disappointed about the German so called SG1/SciFi fans cos they did almost nothing but were laughing at us who tried to change something. If you'd shown a little more interest we could have kickes US American ass.
I will as the other SG1 fans support every movie which might be come out, hopefully more than those two on DVD in 2007.
I'll ask you again to watch/buy Stargate SG1 whenever you can, it's the best TV show the world has ever had!!!!!!!!!!!.


+++ It's October 3rd and it's Stargate SG1 DVD release day!! Season 9 is out now so hopp, hopp lets buy it!!
+++ So there we are!! Friday nights now WITHOUT Stargate SG1 on air! What a bloody shame!

+++ After SciFi announced the cancelation of Stargate SG1 a FanProject was founded! We are named savestargatesg1.com and our main tasks are to spread word and pulling every string we can find to built up some pressure and show that we want our Stargate with SG1 back!! If not on SciFi than on another station. So please join the fight, spread word, or became a member of our group!

+++Terrible braking news: Mr Michael Shanks has confirmed that Stargate SG1 will be closed down! At least on SciFi channel. But he says the chapter will be closed not the whole story. Does that mean there will be the big screen version or may be another channel take over??
How can they do such a stupit thing after celebrating the 200th episode and opening the new chapter with The Ori?? Ra damn you all to hell!!!

+++ msfans, SG1 Team and certainly the whole world is celebrating Stargate's SG1 200th episode! Wohoo there will be the whole origin casting crew and I actually hope that also good old Doc Fraiser will have an ascended guest appearing. I love to have O'Neill back and I am so glad that there still is the Dr Daniel Jackson.
I am very proud to be a memeber of the Stargate - generation so don't mess it up [that one was for some certain writers & producers] ! *g* Have a good SciFi Friday and be back in Kansas at the right time!!

+++ Since July 31st the "Timeless Destinations Convention" is running in Vancouver. Mr. Shanks will be there during comming weekend to promote the Women's SciFi Calendar he and Mr Chris Judge had done. *don't think there is a need for promotion*. ANyway nice to have him there and I hope everyone enjoys the charming man!

+++ Mr Shanks will do another "movie of the week"!! It's title will be "under the mistletoe". The best thing of all is that he will perform a coach of a school hockey team!! Wohoo!! And I really hope he will be allowed to play a lot of hockey!
If you want more details about the storyline and stuff just take a look at www.michaelshanks-online.com!

+++ The latency is over! SG1 is back: new casting members former will come back, new adventures, new faces of the enemy - now summer has really started!!

+++ "Starburst" #339 has got a beautiful interview ("Shanks for the memories") with Mr Shanks about s10. There is a lot talking about his character Dr. Daniel Jackson, RDA come back and the latest casting crew in it, so buy it !!


+++ 19.06.2006 The SyFy Portal Genre Nominations are out.
Mr Shanks is nominated for "Best supporting actor/television". His 'opponents' are actors like Adam Baldwin, Jamie Bamber, James Callis and Terry O'Quinn.
My fingers are crossed for Mr Shanks of course!
I just want to add that I am very disappointed about the fact that Stargate SG1 was NOT nominated for "best series"! Hello would this show run for 10!! Years if the viewers would not like it. What a bloody logic is that?
But of course I hope Stargate will may be receive 1 or some awards in whatever categories!
+++ Michael Shanks received the 'Golden Stargate' for his performance & importance of the Show!! CONGRATULATIONS for that!!

+++ STARGATE became "Fave TV Ensemble Cast" at the Canadian Spacey Award! CONGRATULATIONS!! In othercategories like "Fave Show" SG was just beaten by 1%, WHAT A SHAME!! !

+++ According to an interview with the very nice- always - in -a good- mood Co actor and friend of Mr Shanks, Chris Judge there will be a "Men on SciFi calendar", done by both of them. Wohoo!! That is something to look forward for 2007!!

+++ July 14 and STARGATE s10 will air in Canada and USA. The longest airing SciFi show in history with the long awaited 200th episode!! Let us hope the scripts are as good as the actors & writers promised! RDA will be also back for some episodes Yippee!!
