The Stargate/Supernatural Connection  
Okay, I'm sure this has already been done numerous times before, but I'm at home today recovering from a touch of something nasty that had me pretty ill last night and this morning, and I'm bored.

I always thought it was pretty cool the "connections" these two shows have.

1. Supernatural is filmed in Vancouver, Canada, just like Stargate SG-1 was (and Stargate Atlantis is).

2. Ken Girotti, who had directed the Stargate SG-1 episodes "Cold Lazarus" (#1x06) and "Ethon" (#9x15) also directed the Supernatural episode "Home" (#1x09).

3. Lots of people who appeared on Stargate SG-1 (and even Stargate Atlantis) also appeared in Supernatural.  Here is an exhaustive list:
  •  Bruce Dawson, who played the Captain in Stargate Atlantis episode "Aurora" (#2x09) also played Bill Carlton in Supernatural episode "Dead in the Water" (#1x03).
  • Jaime Ray Newman, who played Lt. Cadman in Stargate Atlantis episode "Duet" (#2x04) also played Amanda Walker, flight attendant in Supernatural episode "Phantom Traveler" (#1x04).
  • Brian Markinson, who played Lotan in Stargate SG-1 episode "Scorched Earth" (#4x09) also played Jerry Panowski in Supernatural episode "Phantom Traveler."
  • Dan Shea, who appeared as Sgt. Siler in countless Stargate SG-1 episodes, played a cop in Supernatural episode "Bloody Mary" (#1x05) and a demon in episode "No Rest for the Wicked" (#3x16).
  • Ryan Robbins, who played Ladon Radim (the Genii guy) in various Stargate Atlantis episodes also played Travis Weaver in Supernatural episode "Bugs" (#1x08).
  • Andrew Airlie, who played Kalan in Stargate SG-1 episode "Learning Curve" (#3x05) and Dr. Carmichael in episode "Avatar" (#8x06) also played Larry Pike in Supernatural episode "Bugs."
  • Anne Marie DeLuise, wife of Stargate SG-1 director Peter DeLuise, played Joanie Pike in Supernatural episode "Bugs."
  • Tom Butler, who played Trofsky in Stargate SG-1 episodes "Out of Mind" (#2x22) and "Into the Fire (#3x01) played Harley Jorgeson in Supernatural episode "Scarecrow" (#1x11).
  • Samantha Ferris, who played Dr. Raully in the same Stargate SG-1 episodes above, plays recurring character Ellen Harvelle in Supernatural (or at least did in Season 2... *misses Ellen*).
  •  Brent Stait, who played Maj. Ferretti in Stargate SG-1 episodes "Children of the Gods" (#1x01) and "Within the Serpent's Grasp (#1x22), played Scotty in Supernatural episode "Scarecrow."
  • William B. Davis, who played an Ori Prior in Stargate SG-1 episode "The Fourth Horseman, Part 2" (#9x11) played a professor in Supernatural episode "Scarecrow."
  • Kevin McNulty, who played Dr. Warner in various Stargate SG-1 episodes (mostly S1 and S2) and Chancellor Lycus in Stargate Atlantis episode "Inferno" (#2x19), played Roy Le Grange in Supernatural episode "Faith" (#1x12).
  • Gillian Barber, who played one of the "residents" in Stargate SG-1 episode "The Gamekeeper" (#2x04) and Ambassador Dreylock in several other episodes, played Layla's mother in Supernatural episode "Faith."
  • Alvin Sanders, who played Fred in Stargate SG-1 episode "Holiday" (#2x18) played Jimmy Anderson in Supernatural episode "Route 666" (#1x13).
  • Jessica Steen, who played Dr. Elizabeth Weir in Stargate SG-1 episodes "The Lost City" (#7x21) and "The Lost City Part 2" (#7x22), played Officer Kathleen Hudak in Supernatural episode "The Benders" (#1x15).
  • Ari Cohen, who played Tyrus in Stargate Atlantis episode "Underground" (#1x08) also played Miles Tarnower (the father of the first sick little girl) in Supernatural episode "Something Wicked" (#1x18).
  • Venus Terzo, who played Dr. Michaels in Stargate SG-1 episode "Frozen" (#6x04), played Joanna in Supernatural episode "Something Wicked."
  • Jodelle Ferland, who played young Adria in Stargate SG-1 episode "Flesh and Blood" (#10x01) and Harmony in Stargate Atlantis episode "Harmony" (#4x14), played Melanie Merchant (the creepy little ghost girl with the razor) in Supernatural episode "Provenance" (#1x19). As a side note, it seems that this Supernatural episode was filmed right around the same time as SG-1's "Flesh and Blood."  She wasn't in that SG-1 ep very much, so I'm guessing they just filmed her scenes on a different day (or days) from the one(s) she filmed on Supernatural.
  • Jay Brazeau, who played Harlan on Stargate SG-1 episodes "Tin Man" (#1x19) and "Double Jeopardy" (#4x21), played a historian in Supernatural episode "Provenance."

  • Teryl Rothery, who played recurring character Dr. Janet Fraiser on countless Stargate SG-1 episodes, played a coroner (how cool is that??) in Supernatural episode "Heart" (#2x17).
  • Ben Ratner, who played a studio executive in Stargate SG-1 episode "Wormhole X-Treme!" (#5x12) and Dr. Hutchison in episode "Morpheus" (#10x02), played Walter Dixon in Supernatural episode "Hollywood Babylon" (#2x18).
  • Garwin Sanford, who played the Tollan Narim in Stargate SG-1 episodes "Enigma" (#1x17), "Pretense" (#3x15) and "Between Two Fires" (#5x09) played Deacon in Supernatural episode "Folsom Prison Blues" (#2x19).
  • Ona Grauer, who played an Ancient in Stargate Atlantis episode "Rising, Part 1", played the Crossroads Demon in Supernatural episode "All Hell Breaks Loose, Part 2" (#2x22).
  • Kurt Evans, who played Col. Johnson in Stargate SG-1 2-parter "The Fourth Horseman" (#9x10 and 9x11), played Agent Reidy in Supernatural episodes "Folsom Prison Blues" (#2x19) and "Jus In Bello" (#3x12).

  • Martin Christopher, who played Major Marks on quite a few Stargate SG-1 episodes (and in the Ark of Truth movie), played a doctor in Supernatural episode "Fresh Blood" (#3x07), as well as in "Dream a Little Dream of Me" (#3x10). (thanks for the heads up, orangeswirl19!)
  • Peter DeLuise, director on Stargate SG-1, appeared as FBI Deputy Director Groves in Supernatural episode "Jus In Bello" (#3x12).
  • Tyler McClendon, who played Lt. Banks in Stargate SG-1 episode "Avalon, Part 1" (#9x01), played Deputy Phil Amici in Supernatural episode "Jus in Bello."
  • Eric Breker, who played Colonel Reynolds on various Stargate SG-1 episodes (and in the Ark of Truth movie), played the grieving father in Supernatural episode "Long Distance Call" (#3x14).
  • Kavan Smith, who played Maj. Lorne in many episodes of Stargate Atlantis and a few episodes of Stargate SG-1, played an auto body shop worker in Supernatural episode "Time is On My Side" (#3x15).
  • Craig Veroni, who played Grodin in many S1 episodes of Stargate Atlantis, appeared as another auto body shop worker in Supernatural episode "Time is On My Side."

And that's about all I have.  There's my geekdom, in all its glory. *grin*  If any sharp-eyed SG-1/SGA watchers noticed I missed anyone, please let me know and I'll add them. ETA: Major *huggles* for my f-listers, esp. [info]meg_tdj for filling in some of the holes! :)
ETA#2: edited to include a few more people after last night's SPN ep. Heh. :)

On a sort of related note, I really hope the actors won't end up striking.  Not only would it ruin the next season of Supernatural, but I'm assuming that some of the cast of SGA are part of the SAG (Screen Actors Guild) as well? I'd guess they would have to stop working too? And from what I hear, Michael Shanks will be filming his appearances on SGA around June or so, and this strike they've been threatening us with would occur around May 30th.  I thought I read somewhere that he's now part of SAG, isn't he? So I guess that would affect him as well.

*shakes head* I understand their reasons for striking (even if I don't totally agree w/them), but you'd think people would be trying to avoid another strike after we just barely got through the WGA's.  If this happens I think it'll sound the death knell for network TV.  I really hope they think about this - BOTH sides - and are able to avoid it. Not holding my breath though.

*grumbles*

There's a ton of X-Files connections in there too :)

you totally forgot major marks :)
jessm78: Stargate: Cam and Daniel notext[info]jessm78 on May 8th, 2008 06:48 pm (UTC)
omg, you're right! *slaps head*

Good eyes, thanks! Gonna go edit right now :)
jessm78[info]jessm78 on May 8th, 2008 06:53 pm (UTC)
Oh yeah, tons! I'm tempted to do a post on that as well but it's been ages since I've watched X-Files, so I'd need a bit of help ;)
Steph: Jensenb/w[info]schnute23 on May 8th, 2008 06:58 pm (UTC)
WOW! I mean really WOW! I didn't know any of those facts *thuds*

Great work!

Hee... thanks! :D I was in a geeky mood so I decided to make this.
vixen_logic: SNP toilet[info]vixen_logic on May 8th, 2008 08:18 pm (UTC)
*g* Interesting. There were a few more in S1 (since I'm still not finished with it), only, I forgot their names: 1) The guy who played the captain of the ship in Aurora (SGA) appeared in SPN's Dead in the Water. 2) The guy who played the genii leader in SGA appeared in SPN's Bugs. 3) There was another actor who played a genii in SGA's s1 episode (I think it was Underground) who appeared in SPN's Something Wicked.
I think Kevin McNulty also appeared in SGA's Inferno.
Now if they could just get Torri Higginson to appear in an episode of Supernatural, I'll like the show even more! *g*

Does this make me a geek too? Heh

BTW, I have to say I also really liked Jessica Steen's character in The Benders. It would've been nice to see her appear again.
jessm78: Supernatural: J2 dynamic duo[info]jessm78 on May 8th, 2008 10:59 pm (UTC)
I think so! Welcome to geekdom :) *g*

Oh, I know who you're talking about. I looked some of the names up on Gateworld.

Thanks! :)

(and yeah, it would be cool if they could get Torri to appear too!!)
maevebran: Geeksquad[info]maevebran on May 8th, 2008 08:47 pm (UTC)
You missed Anne Marie Loder DelLuise, Ryan Robbins, Andrew Airlie all of whom were in Supernatural 1.8 "Bugs". I've only seen the first eight episodes.

jessm78: geek[info]jessm78 on May 8th, 2008 11:55 pm (UTC)
Thanks for catching these! I totally forgot about Anne Marie Loder DeLuise. :)
MegTDJ: Jared Thumbs Up - meg_tdj[info]meg_tdj on May 8th, 2008 08:51 pm (UTC)
*flails* You forgot Reynolds!!! Eric Breker played the grieving dad in Long Distance Call. Totally made my week right there. :D

Um... who else... oh, Andrew Airlie, who played Kalen in Learning Curve and Dr. Carmichael in Avatar, was the realtor guy in Bugs.
Brian Markinson played Lotan in Scorched Earth and Jerry in Phantom Traveler.
Gillian Barber, who you mentioned, also played someone from Jonas' planet in a couple eps of SG-1.
Venus Terzo played Dr. Michaels in Frozen, and Michael's mom in Something Wicked (she just can't escape that name, can she? :P).
Dominic Zamprogna, one of the vampires from Dead Man's Blood, played Aries in the SGA ep Childhood's End.
Vincent Gale played one of the agents in Nightwalkers, and played Evan in Crossroad Blues.
The gas station dude in Born Under a Bad Sign was one of the Goa'uld slaves in Summit, but I don't know the actor's name.
Winston Rekert was the Tok'ra dude in The Tok'ra parts 1 and 2, and the farmer ghost in Roadkill.
Ben Ratner played a couple characters in SG-1 (a doc in Morpheus and a producer or something in Wormhole X-Treme), and he was Walter in Hollywood Babylon.
Ben Cotton played Kavanagh in tons of SGA eps, and was Pride in The Magnificent Seven.
Hrothgar Mathews was Dr. Hamilton in Prodigy and Grossman in Bad Day at Black Rock.
Aaaaand Peter DeLuise... well, is Peter DeLuise! He was the FBI guy in Jus In Bello.

Okay, stopping now, heh. As you can tell, I've seen both of these shows waaaay too many times. ;)
MegTDJ: Jared Dog - lierina[info]meg_tdj on May 8th, 2008 08:55 pm (UTC)
Oh! And apparently Henriksen's buddy Reidy played a colonel on SG-1 in the Fourth Horseman two-parter... his name's Kurt Evans. And Tyler McClendon was in Avalon part 1, and played the deputy in Jus In Bello.

*is really stopping now*
jessm78: Supernatural: Sam teh awesome (3x14)[info]jessm78 on May 8th, 2008 11:59 pm (UTC)
Hee... Thanks so much for all of these!! I totally cannot believe I forgot The DeLuise! *slaps head*

I looked up the name of the gas station dude, and his name is Richard Kahan. For some reason they don't list all the names of the Goa'uld slaves in Summit (I think they just mentioned one named Paul Anthony). But I did find out that he was in Atlantis ep The Tower. So I can still add him. Hee :D

And I *thought* Evan Hudson looked familiar when I first saw Crossroad Blues, but I couldn't figure out where in SG-1 I'd seen him. Now it's coming back to me. *grin*

Thanks so much for all this, hon :D *checks watch* Ooo, an hour to go till the new ep!
MegTDJ: Jared Thumbs Up - meg_tdj[info]meg_tdj on May 9th, 2008 03:17 am (UTC)
Hmm... it's entirely possible that it was some other guy in Summit... but yay for The Tower!

And now you have more to add from tonight's ep! ;)
jessm78: Supernatural: Sam teh awesome (3x14)[info]jessm78 on May 9th, 2008 12:31 pm (UTC)
*bounces* Yay!! It WAS Lorne that I saw... and he was talking to Grodin!

The SG/SPN connection is still alive and well ;)

ETA: Oh, and I just realized that I can add Ona Grauer too... she played an Ancient in SGA's Rising Pt. 1, and she played the Crossroads Demon in AHBL Pt. 2.

MegTDJ: Sam Excited - trusttheonions[info]meg_tdj on May 9th, 2008 07:58 pm (UTC)
Woohoo!! Dude, I squeed SO LOUD when I realized who I was watching on my screen, LOL! And then the blind lady from Scorched Earth appeared!!! Three SG alums in the teaser alone! And then Steven Williams! It was like SG reunion time, it was great. :D

Ona Grauer was in SG-1? Wow... need to go back and watch that ep again to see!
jessm78: Supernatural: Sam teh awesome (3x14)[info]jessm78 on May 10th, 2008 04:02 pm (UTC)
Hee hee! Oh... she was the lady whom he went up to in the hospital? I can't believe I missed that! Oh well... still cool!

She was in Atlantis ep "Rising".... I think at the beginning she was one of the "ancients". I'm gonna have to go back and check it out again too!

I totally came across this post by accident, but I have to say yay! I love it when Stargate actors show up in Supernatural episodes.
jessm78: Supernatural: Dean promo ([info]jessm78 on May 10th, 2008 04:03 pm (UTC)
It is cool, isn't it? I first noticed it when I saw Teryl Rothery in Heart (I only started watching SPN around mid S2).
