Jack, Daniel and their braincell in Pretense

[wildhorsestealcwildhorses]

This episode was particularly harrowing for the good Colonel O'neill, which was actually rather fitting as Richard Dean Anderson wasn't at his sparkling best during filming. "I don't think I was in too laughy a mood because I just had some knee surgery. We had this set on gimbals that would move up and down, and because of the surgery, I couldn't do the tumbling that I wanted to down the walls. So I was a little limited, and I'm not fond of limited in any way." There was one bright light on his horizon, though: "Working with Michael, I love. In fact, he came back a couple times in season six, and we've had some great one-on-one scenes. The powers that control these things seem like to put us both in a bag and shake it up. I really enjoyed that aspect of working with him. He and I have an innate understanding of rhythm in our scenes. It's easy working with Michael, because you can look over at him and see the light is — on. So it's all good."

Dan Shea, who's also the stunt coordinator and the man responsible for safety on set, has more trouble with his little finger than anything else. "I double for Richard Dean Anderson and love all the action stuff, but I do have one problem. I can't seem to hold my pinky in when I'm firing a gun! So I'll come in in the morning, say 'Hi' and Rick will hold up his little finger to let me know I've messed up again." Oh, sh — sugar. There's one thing that Siler is never without as Shea explains: "Usually, whenever you see me walking by, I'm holding a wrench. It started off as just a normal wrench, but over the years, they kept giving me bigger and bigger ones, and the one I carry around now is the same size as I am! I guess it must be for cranking up the Stargate," he jokes.

"There's a scene right at the end where my character soaks Daniel Jackson with a water gun," Judge remembers. "I couldn't resist doing it and Michael Shanks had no idea what was coming. I pumped the thing up to the highest pressure and just let him have it. He was drenched and it hurt too. The look on his face was really priceless! We used that first take in the final edit because it was just so perfect."

The entire regular cast and crew are buoyed by the energy Michael Welch [teen clone Jack] brought to the roll. Amanda Tapping recollects, "I don't know how many episodes of Stargate this poor boy had to watch, but he studied hard. He's a wonderful young actor very unassuming, very smart, really nice guy...He studied and had all these 'Rick-isms'. They weren't even 'O'Neil-lisms', because they are so Rick. We were all just laughing our heads off, and when the two of them finally met it was just 'Oh My God! It's like mini-me.' It was fun and very, very sweet. He was doing all these hand gestures and nuances, and had a nice sense of timing too. Richard Dean Anderson was delighted."

it would explain so much about Gotham economics if it turned out the only employers who pay a livable minimum wage are 1) Wayne Enterprises duh, but mainly 2) all of Gotham's assorted villains.

sure henching comes with shitty working conditions, but the benefits package is crazy competitive. they have dental

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

Gotham's villains are so engrained because supervillainy is the only thing propping up the local economy. henching requires no work experience, provides on-the-job training, and has a diversity hiring program (you're willing to commit crimes in tacky matching uniforms? great you're in, here's your gun and clownsuit)

Batman is constantly throwing money trying to compete but the fact remains that henchpeople are Gotham's largest workforce and will be until minimum wage laws catch up to reality

[fall-out-girlboy]

even educated jobs in environmental science are probably getting laundered money from poison Ivy. and a lab equipment tech might notice three different jobs are tied to pamela Isley and also happened to receive grants from "unrelated" shady shell orgs and the next one is setting up a temperature controled penguin habitat for some eccentric obvious mobster.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

half of Gotham's supervillains have doctorates of course they're also funding the sciences (for crime purposes but still)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

we need a new supervillain who gets drawn into villainy specifically to make money for funding grants. they come up with a theme and wacky outfit and loony backstory but at the end of the work day they change back into their alter ego (tired scientist with bags under their eyes and a hotpocket stuck in their labcoat). they're actually very mild mannered irl—the villain persona comes from their background in Theatre Arts

They don’t censor comedians because of dirty words. They censor comedians because laughter makes authority look small. Once people laugh at power, they stop fearing it. And when fear disappears, control begins to slip.
