SG-1 is adding yet another person to the list of Guest Stars who've been plucked from the ranks of other finished and/or cancelled sci-fi series.

Apparently Morena Baccarin (Inara - the hot hooker from Firefly/Serenity) has been cast as the full-grown version of Vala's kid, Adria.

****en nifty.

Though I dunno if I can see her pulling off the cool, creepy, "death to the unbelievers" attitude of an Ori oracle.

[ilya]

Will she be an Ori believer?
   
Wont Vala teach her otherwise?

[an0n]

No, she grows up fast. By the middle of the season she's full-grown apparently.

And she's not so much a believer as an avatar of the Ori - complete with all their '**** the mortals' knowledge.

[ilya]

Creepy.

[redmenace]

Fargate SG-1=>Firegate SG-1?

[Nix]

FireScape SG-1
FarFly SG-1

[IceFire]

Wow...she's a very impressive actress in all senses of the word so this will be interesting to see.  I don't doubt it too much but this could be a very good three dimensional character and a great villian if done properly.  Maybe with some shades of grey.

I have lost my faith in the original SG-1 series starting from season 9. It's just no SG-1 anymore, it would've been better if they had just started two spin-off series instead of derailing the original series.

Meh, I liked Season 9. I find that the people that disliked did so not only because it was so different - what with the new team-dynamic, new main characters and new enemies - but also because, while good, Season 9 just wasn't as ace as the end of Season 8, argueably the best episodes Stargate has ever produced [Reckoning 1 & 2 and the 90-minute Threads that is, Moebius was great, but not as fantastic as the preceding three].

Season 10 will likely bring back a lot of those alienated viewers, what with a main protaganist already set [the Ori] and a new enemy on the horizon, the new characters settled in a ready for some fleshing-out of their characters, and - most importantly - the return of RDA as a regular.

[Ace]

- most importantly - the return of RDA as a regular.

Woo!

I can see it now:
"Hallowed are the Orii."

"Yeah... well you guys are a bunch of shrubs anyway..."

*O'neil beams out, nuke goes off, kills prior*

[Fury]

the return of RDA as a regular.

Is it just a rumor or a fact? If a fact, what would his role be? Commander of the SGC? Will he replace Bridges?

[aldo_14]

the return of RDA as a regular.

It's not a fact; AFAIK he's back for something like 5 episodes as a guest star.

[Mefustae]

Although, I believe his appearances will be considerably larger than his cameos in 'Origin' and 'Avalon'. Plus, he'll have a substantial role in the 200th Episode.

[an0n]

I'm hoping they copy the whole 'Lost City / New Order' thing again to win some random battle against the Ori.

They're pinned down in one of the Library monuments and O'Neill just goes "Now I remember why I took the promotion. Aw, **** it", jams his head in the Library and starts rewiring the Ori weapons they've stolen to shoot big beams of blue death that chew up the landscape. Then he walks out, completely out of his goddamn mind, glowing with energy, flinging bolts of carnage at the Ori while SG-1 hose them down with Ori/Ancient beam-weapon staffs.

Have the Libraries as the Ancients' weapon-of-last-resort against the Ori - having put them there millions of years ago so advanced Humans could gun-shot the entirety of Ancient knowledge into their head and lead other Humans against the followers of the Ori.

[aldo_14]

I would imagine we'll see some ZPM-ery in the antartica outpost before long, in any case.

[ilya]

Before we even get to Earth, we have to resolve the battle around the supergate

[an0n]

It's been fairly conclusively resolved by the Ori destroying everything except the Asgard ship and the horrifically crippled Odyssey.

After this, I think they hit Chulak.

It'll be a while before they hit Earth, because they'll have to deal with the Drone Swarm - which can probably batter the **** out of Ori ships.

[ilya]

I dunno, even the Asgaurd weapons couldn't penetrate the Oris' shields.

[aldo_14]

I dunno, even the Asgaurd weapons couldn't penetrate the Oris' shields.

It would make sense IMO to have the Ori and Ancients on similar technological levels.

[an0n]

Asgard weapons weren't particularly great against the shields of Anubis' ships either - but the drones completely ignored Anubis' shields and tore his ships to **** - even his uber-ship.
