Sanctuary returns September 28 with a 20 episode third season!
Ben Browder: Well, I have more experience filming in Australia and in Canada than I probably do filming in the US just because of the longevity of the work. They're surprisingly similar in many ways. The differences are more cultural. The physical mechanics of making movies is similar. Every set has its own culture and vibe, so I really couldn't compare Canada to Australia. I could compare Stargate to Farscape. I'm sure you guys have probably been on more sets than I've been on. You go on a set... everyone has a different vibe. It comes from both ends of the food chain in regards to how a set is because of what the script is like, how successful the show is, what's the creative process. So every show has a different culture, and I don't know how to compare those in regards to nationalities because I think I would probably be only speaking specifically about the two shows. And there's a danger in there because I'll end up saying something like, "Canadians sound really intelligent, but somehow evil, eh. They sound like they're from Minnesota, but smarter, eh." [laughs] I made the mistake of talking to RDA [Richard Dean Anderson] about it. He appeared in one the later episodes of Stargate, I think it was Moebius, where he's on the boat, and I thought he was affecting a Canadian accent, not realizing it was Minnesotan, which is his native accent. I said, "So why d'you choose to do the Canadian accent?" He said, "What are you talking about?" [I said,] "You know, when you were on the boat and it was the separate timeline thing. Was it like a homage to the crew or something." [laughs]He looks at me like, "What?" [I said,] "You know, the timeline thing, and you were on the boat and you were like, ëeh'" He goes, "Like, 'I'm from Minnesota,' eh?" I went, "Oooh, right." [laughs] I thought the Canadian's had a lock on "Eh." No?
