Star Gate Atlantis

Is this series a go or not? If so anyone have any info?

OK look lit is.

It is, in fact, a "go" and should be on the air this fall. It's been shooting throughout this spring. I know one of the assistant directors (Lance Peverly) slightly, because he goes to a scifi convention that I attend. Lance was telling us some funny stories about "The Terminator Guy" (Robert Patrick -- who guest stars on the first show) having an encounter with a couple of child actors (fans of his, incidentally) who were on that episode.

A friend made Lance a "lucky bananna slug" and he's threatened to sneak it onto the set to show up in some of the pix. We'll see....

Robert Patrick .
Agent John Doggett .
Who was he? Before joining The X-Files to lead the hunt for Mulder in 2000 Robert Patrick was recognisable to everyone as the T-1000, the human face of the terminator sent back to kill John Connor in Terminator 2. He has a packed CV since then including films like Cop Land, All The Pretty Horses and The Faculty.

What did The X-Files do for him? Patrick beat Lou Diamond Phillips, Hart Bochner and Bruce Campbell to the role of Agent Doggett. He seemed to have no trouble finding work but getting the role certainly raised his profile � and probably his bank balance. Despite fans initial resistance to having him fill Mulder�s shoes Patrick won over true fans of the show with his tough no-nonsense character.

Where is he now? His stint on The X-Files was short and sweet and since the show finished he�s appeared in Charlie�s Angels 2 and Pavement. He will co-star in the two-hour pilot of a Stargate Atlantis a spin-off of the cult sci-fi show Stargate and in new film Ladder 49.
