Brand New Stargate Atlantis Season 4 ad!!

[wraithfodder]

You know, it was worth suffering through the abysmal Skiffy flick - SHOWNDOWN AT AREA 51 - to catch this ad. Yes, SciFi Channel put on an ad for the second half of season 4 of Stargate Atlantis. It's right below, and opening the video will expose to a TON of spoilers, so you've been warned. If you don't mind spoilers, ENJOY! Done by aiming digital camera at TV screen, so not high tech ;)

UPDATE: Screencaps from video now up at next post.

I don't know why, but everytime I see Rachel (Teyla) near the end of her pregnancy it always throws me because I'm so used to her being tiny and compact :P Also, that whole "guess who's coming back" spoiler...we have three months before those eps air, but apparently Sci-Fi doesn't care to keep the secret anymore. Huh, interesting marketing theory there.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Gee, we know about her pregnancy before the rest of her team! She still hasn't told them about it. They'll probably just think she's eating too much ;) WEll, Skiffy has been pretty bad when it comes to spoilers. Drops 'em left and right.

Joe M keeps saying the reveal will be onscreen and the reaction of the team will vary (and I'm really looking forward to John's reactions after the hints he gave), but...this should have happened earlier in the season. Willful blindness only goes so far.

And in reaction to spoiler reveal, somewhere Joe Mallozzi is throwing a fit :P Thanks, Sci-Fi, for ruining another twist with your promos ;)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

The only way to avoid spoilers is to not watch SciFi at all, and turn off the tv before they show next week's episode teasers ;)

[libra-traveller.livejournal.com]

Thanks for showing! And scifi really is messed up with the whole not spoiling things, though frankly I don't mind.

Ahhhhhh!!! I screamed!!! I haven't done that in a long time! I seriously screamed when I saw Carson!!!

AHHHHHHH!



Oh, BTW, thank you thank you thank you! :D

"What took you so long"? I jumped out of my seat a little bit on that one. Yep, Somewhere Joe M. is having a fit.

[dovil.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for this!

But wow, you weren't kidding about there being spoilers - I'm surprised sci-fi doesn't just release the scripts and be done with it.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I don't think SciFi knows the definition of spoiler... but yes, sooo nice seeing Carson again.

[kimberlyfdr.livejournal.com]

Look at Rodney's immediate reaction on that. Across his face you can read "you're supposed to be dead, I carried your casket, WTF?!"

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Oh heck, just release it on DVD and let us watch it uninterrupted ;)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

[neevebrody.livejournal.com]

Ah, the lengths you go to to bring us the latest - I appreciate your suffering. AWESOME promo! And I think even Joe M said that we'd be seeing Carson again, he even said clue to how they were going to do it was in a S3 episode (I think it's Tao - Carson had blood of everyone on file, ya know). I didn't see anything really spoilerly in it. I saw Michael (human) (I think) and it's clear that Teyla's baby is going to be a key.

Oh, I can't wait!

[deaka.livejournal.com]

Great, thanks for sharing. So much for that big surprise, huh? Nice going SciFi! Not that I mind too much. :p

[kimberlyfdr.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, we in the fandom knew Carson was coming back, we even know the eps he's gonna be in, but the general public didn't have a clue. This is gonna be a huge spoiler for them. (The clue was at the end of Vengeance, based on the hints from JM and the participants in the Carson eps)

[kristen999.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Though why are ppl surprised they showed Carson? Its a selling point for ratings is it not?

Sheppard was scaling the freaking tower! Have to re-watch to see anything about Teyla.

But yay to Carson being back!!!

[busaikko]

Oooh! I'm looking forward to the fun! Thanks... and your technique brought back the fandom memories. Back when I was a kid, people used to make cam-copies of PAL-system videos. All my Dr Who memories look kind of like this *g*

[neevebrody.livejournal.com]

Oh, you are so good, thanks for the info. I'm going to have to go back and watch that again, and obviously read JM's blog everyday. I was a sporadic reader until just recently and have been following him pretty much daily for about two months (glad he's back up now).

[psycho-warbaby.livejournal.com]

OMG OMG!!! It looks awesome! And Michael and Carson! eep! Thanks so much for sparking my love (?Obsession?) for SGA again!

[witchofthedogs.livejournal.com]

That truly made my day and has made me look forward to January tenfold.

[lorr54.livejournal.com]

Oh, my God!!!! You are so amazing for posting the ad! Thank you!

[highonstargate.livejournal.com]

What a surprise I got when I heard Carson asking "What took you so long!" I screamed Jumped out of my chair and this dance!

Thanks for renewing my obsessionn on SGA and Carson!:D

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Sometimes low tech can be fun ;)

[leesquared.livejournal.com]

Thanks for posting!

Is it bad that the part of that I was most excited by is them being caprtured by the Boli Kai? Bring on the *everyone* whump.

[erin-anderson.livejournal.com]

OMG the first thing I did was yell CARSON!!! I already knew he was coming back, so it wasn't a spoiler perse for me....*SQUEAL*
