Stargate Universe "Visitation" - Part Two

Let's see, where did I left off? Oh yes, I was running away from the actors, ha!! Ha!!

August, 19th, 2010 was the day the famous Herbert Summerfeld joined us on set, what a treat! Herbert is an extremely nice guy, a real professional, always a gentleman, and according to the girls, he is not too bad to look at either.

While we were sitting around the tent talking about B.A.G., I mentioned that lots of people on Gateworld were asking about my real name. At that time I was not on Gateworld, because I was still trying to get a grip on the whole B.A.G. thing. Herbert said he was on Gateworld and he would be happy to announce my real name to the world. I was apprehensive at first, but gave into all the positive comments from all the background performers in the peanut gallery. Therefore, I have to credit my emergence on Gateworld to Herbert Summerfeld, my friend and the best dam background performer/actor in the world. Thanks Herb, from your humble servant!!!!!!

Don't all actors just hate editing sometimes? Most of the time, editing just means cutting out scenes, or in my case, my scenes!!!! I bet anyone $20.00 that it is possible to make two more episodes from the film that is on the editing room floor, any takers?

There was one whole scene that was cut from "Visitation", and dammit, Dr. Lisa Park was holding my hand. The scene was in the infirmary, where we the "Faith survivors" were all being cared for before we hit the body BAGs. Ha!! Ha!! Sorry, I just had to slipped that one in, I am bad.

There were lots of cast and background running around trying to help us, but there were nothing they can do except to make us as comfortable as possible. Some were under sheets dead already, some dying on their beds, and I was the only one still sitting on the side of my bed with a blanket over my shoulders. I was shaking like a tree, holding the blanket close to my chest, and trying to look miserable. Dr. Lisa Park came over and took my temperature, while Lt. Tamara Johansen whispered to Colonel Young that there is nothing more she can do for us.

I am sorry, but I have to stop writing for now. I just found out that SGU got axed!! There are no words to describe my feelings at this moment, so I will continue in Part Three.

Stargate Universe "Visitation" - Part One

Wow, the wait is over and like a penned up fart, I can finally let the big one go. I can finally talk about "Visitation"!!!

Tuesday, November, 23rd, 2010, Stargate Universe - "Visitation", the most anticipated episode in the world was aired on Syfy. O.k., maybe the world did not hold their breath waiting, but most SF fans were on the edge of their seats waiting. Well, maybe not most SF fans, but just some crazy, diehard Stargate fans and B.A.G. fans were, ha!! Ha!!

Ever since August, 12th, 2010, I have been dying to talk about my appearance and my questionable demise on "Visitation". Now, I can without restrain, and just let it rip!!

I was asked to be on "Visitation" back in late July, 2010, and was told filming will begin early August. Information were vague, 4 to 5 days, in the studio and maybe one day back on location. Obviously, I said yes, because I would be on my favorite show and why would I turn down 5 days of work. It was late July that I found out the dates were on August 12th, 13th, 16th, 19th and 21st, which didn't sit very well with me. I've told my agent a long time ago that I won't be in town from the 21st of August for five days, so what to do? I was told they still want me and they are going to decide what to do depends how the shooting goes.

Well, August 12th onward were like a dream to me, because after finding out about B.A.G., I was on cloud nine. All the background performers were talking to me about B.A.G. and making all these funny B.A.G. jokes.  I can't stop smiling and didn't know how to deal with people when they came up to talk to me.

We were having lunch and when I was walking behind the actor's table, Patrick Gilmore turned around and talked to me.

He said "Hi, I am sorry, what's your name?"
I said "Bill", while we shook hands.
He then asked me "Do you know you have lots of fans?"
I answered "These fans are so funny, I am just having a lot of fun with it."
Alaina Huffman, Ming Na, and David Blue all laughed and Mr. Gilmore said "That is great, good luck to you." I replied "Thank you!", and left quickly, because I am sure my face was red, and I just don't know how to react to people paying attention to me.

Here ends Part One, because I have to go to bed, so until Part Two!!!
