Sigh, David Hewlett's parting words from Stargate Atlantis

[wraithfodder]

From David Hewlett's Twitter last night/early this morning...

Just wrapped 5 years of Atlantis...very sad. I have never worked with such a wonderful cast, crew and audience. Thank you and goodnight!

Sniff :(

sniff is right. *wipes tear*

Oh, wow, this hits very hard.

[nikomaria.livejournal.com]

Sad now :(

To look on the positive side of things, think of how many projects all of the cast will be working on. David's been writing on at least eleventy billion scripts, so it's highly likely he'll cast some of the SGA cast in those projects.

I'm also crossing my fingers that a lot of familiar faces show up in the Judge/Shanks project, Rage of Angels. We may not be able to play Stargate Actor Bingo with that one, because it would be like shooting fish in a barrel. *g*

I had one minor happy thought occur to me while reading that -- maybe now the actors will have time to do commentaries for the season 5 DVDs?

Now back to the sniffing. *sigh*

I know, I read that and had the realization that it is really is over. :( I am going to miss McKay and the whole series!!

A sad day for us all.

Still, write those letters...don't give up.

*Sniff* And what makes it even worse is seeing the casting call yesterday for SGU. Way to rub salt in the wounds, tptb.

Damn

Oh David....this makes me so very, very sad. All of the actors have commented about how the cast and crew are like one big family, so I'm sure its going to be hard for all of them when they film their last scene. Sniffle.

Damn. I've been in fandom for a lot of years, but I've never had a show I will miss this much.

:(((

It may be 'good night', Rodney, but never 'goodbye'. All of the 'Lantians will stay alive in our hearts and minds.

I will miss this show hopefully we will get more than 1 movie

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I hope we get more than one movie too.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

And fanfic!!! :D

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

{{{hugs}}

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I know. I've been in a variety of fandoms but THIS show I'm gonna miss. It still had life left. I hope the fanfic continues!

Re: Damn

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I know acting is a transitory profession, but it must be soooo tough for all of them to lose this (not to mention, the steady paycheck!). To find a place of work where you totally enjoy going, that's rare.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, definitely. Sucks. On both counts.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

yup.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

He's the only truly annoying character on tv whom I dearly love. sigh...

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Oh gee, yeah, maybe Joe will do commentaries now!

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Yeah, can hope for that, but still, I love the characters. As much as I enjoy watching the actors, I really liked the SGA characters. But I sure hope as heck they all get great jobs after this.

[margec01.livejournal.com]

Despite the protestations of several on my lj ("I've only ever written for dead fandoms" "the fandom will be around for years"), I'm already noticing the cutback. Fics from my regular sources have dropped off tremendously. I used to see 10-15 a week. Since the announcement, it's been one every day or so. Except for some 300-500 word stories.

It's only natural. Many people are in mourning. I wish it was because I thought they were all writing letters and sending lemons.

I'm sure there are plenty of fics still out there--it's just that they're already not being written by many of my favorite authors. I guess I can only be sad and say, "I told me so." Sigh.

If only !

A David/Joe commentary for the Shrine and I might even forgive TPTB for most of what they did (to SGA ! I'm not about to forgive SGU for anything yet).

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm always looking for more fic, and I hope that the authors are writing MGM, mourning the loss, doing schoolwork, or just waiting to see what happens. I really need to write some fic myself but haven't done any in too long. Need to get back in the saddle.

[tringasolitaria.livejournal.com]

Ahhhh :( That makes me very very sad. :( I'll grant you that I haven't always been so happy with show developments, but that doesn't mean I'll soon forgive them for killing this show. The writing may not have always been so great, but they had a awesome cast. :(
