“[In Young and Rush] you have two people who absolutely need and rely on one another and who can’t get back home without each other. That’s obviously creating great friction and conflict.” – Louis Ferreira

Stargate Universe - Stargate Planet: Patrick Gilmore Interview

German
English
Interview with Patrick Gilmore
about Stargate Universe and other projects
We know Patrick Gilmore as “Dale Volker“ in Stargate Universe and we’re grateful that he took some time off his busy schedule to answer a few career related questions for our German website visitors.
A brief excerpt:
S-P.de: How did you prepare for your Stargate Universe audition?
Monday
11am - Call from Agent “Audition tomorrow.”
4pm - Receive email with portion of script and other audition details.
6pm - Stop procrastinating and read audition. Play with moments and dialogue, all while cleaning my house (avoidance behaviour.)
8pm - Long dinner (more avoidance behaviour.)
10pm – After watching some TV I would have blocked out my audition. Pacing my living room, yelling, mumbling, getting online to research certain plot points and styles of the TV show. The detail gets exhausting.
Tuesday
2am – I go to sleep anxious with the audition material lying beside my pillow.
9am – I wake, read the audition, shower and perform the audition in the shower.
10am – Drive to audition, still rehearsing.
11am – Audition.

A brief excerpt:
S-P.de: How did you prepare for your Stargate Universe audition?
PG: That was back in January of 2009. Actors audition so much that at one point they all bleed into one and you can’t remember specifics. My prep for SGU would have been as followed:
Monday
11am - Call from Agent “Audition tomorrow.”
4pm - Receive email with portion of script and other audition details.
6pm - Stop procrastinating and read audition. Play with moments and dialogue, all while cleaning my house (avoidance behaviour.)

9am – I wake, read the audition, shower and perform the audition in the shower.
10am – Drive to audition, still rehearsing.
11am – Audition.
That’s probably what happened for the first audition. Then there was a call-back and I do specifically remember that last audition with Rob, Brad and Andy in the room.

Humour in this ‘House’
By Greg David
2010-04-23
Silly, scrumptious SyFy hit finally bows in Canada
Saul Rubinek, Joanne Kelly and Eddie McClintock
You’d be excused if – at first glance – you thought Warehouse 13 was a lot like The X-Files.
After all, the SyFy series, which debuts Season 1 on Citytv April 23 (in the crappy 10 p.m. timeslot, I might add, almost 10 months after it bowed in the U.S.), follows two government agents as they “snag, bag and tag” mysterious artefacts, supernatural relics and fantastic objects from around the world.
Myka (Joanne Kelly) is straitlaced and by-the-book, while Pete (Eddie McClintock) is off-the-cuff and willing to charge in without waiting for backup.

“Mulder and Scully – are you kidding me?” enthuses Kelly from the show’s set, today a junk yard in Toronto’s suburbs. She’s clearly flattered with comparison. “The major difference between us and them is that we’re not strictly a drama. We much more walk the line of comedy...”

Roll them ‘Bones’
By Greg David
2010-05-05
Author Kathy Reichs pens her first ‘Bones’ episode
For the uninitiated, Bones is inspired by the adventures of a real-life woman.
Kathy Reichs divides her time between Montreal and Charlotte, N.C., where she is a forensic anthropologist for the Laboratoire des Sciences Judiciares et de Médecine Légale in Quebec and a professor of anthropology at the University of North Carolina.
When she’s not doing those two gigs, she writes novels starring one Temperance Brennan that are based on her life. Those tales served as the jumping-off point for Bones, Fox’s prime-time hit procedural.
Five seasons in, Reichs finally took pen to paper and wrote her first Bones episode, called “The Witch in the Wardrobe.” In it, Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and Booth (David Boreanaz) are called to a burned-out cabin, where the skeletons of a modern-day witch and one from the days of the Salem Witch Trials have been discovered...
