David Hewlett and Robert Picardo will be the Atlantis residents to appear, according to reports out of the convention hall.

The characters will appear in “Seizure,” currently slated as the fifteenth episode of the new season and set to air sometime in the first half of 2011

Of course McKay would show up. That's a no brainer.

Would have preferred Shepperd to show up, Picardo apart from the last season was never a major SGA character.

 

[Hermiod]

I'm amazed they didn't call McKay as soon as their people arrived on Destiny.

 

[Caliburn24]

I would have liked Sheppard to visit SGU also, but I'm not sure what a gunslinger like him would offer storywise.

With McKay it is a no brainer that he'll be working with Eli and Rush, and Woolsey will probably be interacting with Wray.

 

[Danny99]

Hopefully if Woolsey interacts with Wray, she'll come down the bitch ladder a bit.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

Snore. Neither of them will add what SG:U desperately needs, some kick-ass fun quotient. They shoulda gone for Shep.

 

[Hermiod]

^Quelle surprise!

 

[Harvey]

Several posters here predicted that these two would be the ones who would show up. I don't know how McKay will fit with the show's style, but you never know.

 

[The Wormhole]

I love it when I'm right.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

^Quelle surprise!

I don't yammer about Shep quite as much as you yammer about Ms. Marvel.

Shep x Ms. Marvel...I wonder...possible subplot for SG:U and/or The Avengers movie?

Nah, Shep would just idiotically flirt with her while she drops buildings on him.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

The characters will appear in “Seizure,”

Dead link...should have "gateworld.net" instead of "trekbbs.com".

 

[Crewman47]

I've read that the Atlantis movie is still being put on the back burner, will be a stand alone story and will be set shortly after season 5 but do you think they might make any current reference to it during there time on SGU or would this spoil any plot points for the movie?

Magliozzi's blog said they were going to adjust the script of the Atlantis movie so it happens after the Universe crossover, and mentions some of the complications that leads to.

This seems like the beginning of continuity problems. Especially since some people have given up on Universe, how will that effect their understanding of the Atlantis movies?

 

[The Wormhole]

Just because the Atlantis movie takes place after this SGU episode doesn't mean you need to see the SGU episode to understand it. After all, had you never seen an episode of DS9 or Voyager, would you be confused watching First Contact what with Worf and the Defiant and an EMH being there?

Also, wasn't there also similar problems with Continuum? It was originally supposed to take place before Atlantis's fourth season, but because of it's release date, they ended up inserting a line in the fifth season premiere to set things up? Mind you, that didn't impact continuity that much, other than Carter being listed in the credits with the wrong rank.

 

[Captain Shaw]

It does not really matter what they do as there will never be a SGA film.

 

[Kirby]

I wonder if McKay will be McKay-like, or if they'll dour him down to the SGU level.

 

[MilleniumLance]

they'll dour him down
