SyFy has actually made a movie which is getting good reviews?!

http://tvovermind.zap2it.com/tv-news/ferocious-planet/53895
B-movie staple John Rhys-Davies briefly brings his British (um... southern) accent and holier than thou attitude to Ferocious Planet as an American Senator with an interest in otherworld dimensions in Saturday's Syfy classic-in-the-making.  Sharing the screen as the reluctant, ornery and hotter than hell hero is Joe Flanigan. It's sure good to see him back in the realm of science fiction, where he fits so gloriously well.

.....

Most of all, I like Joe Flanigan and watching him in action just proves he needs to be helming his own series again. Syfy, please take note.  To experience the thrills of another dimension, tune into Syfy this Saturday at 9:00 pm Eastern. You won't be sorry!

Well, finally, a reviewer who knows quality ;) though am quibbling if it should be hotter-than-hell or just hotter than hell Joe Flanigan ;)  The review does have a few teensy spoilers, but I figure the relevant Joe Flanigan mentions are enough to post here :)

For those following him, Joe Flanigan is back on twitter (@joeflanigan)

His radio interview today is now online at BlogtalkRadio at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/buzzworthyradio/2011/04/07/joe-flanigan

Starts at approximately the 5.32 mark, ends at 14.50. Tidbits include:

Says his character in Ferocious Planet did something wrong, but patriotic, so got stuck in the position he's in in the movie. and that his character is woefully underarmed. He then talked about working on Sisters, where he was "the guy," and how George Clooney had guest starred on it.

Next came questions about a Stargate Atlantis reunion type of 'thing,' to which Joe replied "I think the rumors have been all over the place. Unfortunately there's not going to be any Stargate in the near future. That doesn’t mean it won’t be in the future, but I don't think anybody will be seeing any Stargate-related anything for at least another year. The franchise has been effectively kind of shut down. Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis were cancelled and they spun off a series simultaneously they called Universe that unfortunately was not embraced by the audience, and that kind of sank the ship for a little while. We're going to have to resurrect that ship somehow." Joe then said the interviewer could watch the entire series (about 100 hours) and Joe would call back the next day to question him on it.

The interviewer asked about the movie Spore.  "Spore? Oh, Spore. Yes, well, right now we just have a script – a guy  named David Burns out of London, and we are supposed to go into production in Spring... on Spore. I love saying that one." The interviewer then told Joe it was Spring, but right now he's freezing on snow-covered streets in Aspen, so he figures he should call about that one. "Maybe I'm late for work."

He then made his first tweet in nearly half a year.
