A pretty interesting read!! " Many science fiction fans first met Memphis, Tennessee-born Ben Browder when the very smart, very original series Farscape premiered in 1999 as one of The SCI FI Channel's first ever original series. As IASA Commander John Crichton, Browder brought to life one of the most complex and entertaining genre heroes in one of the most imaginative series ever to grace the small screen. He has also appeared on Party of Five, Melrose Place, CSI: Miami, and in 2004 played Lee Majors in "Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of 'Charlie's Angels.'" Now 42, Browder is moving his family from sunny Australia to Vancouver, British Columbia to join the ranks of another hit SCI FI series, Stargate SG-1 -- once paired with Farscape on Friday nights. With filming on the show's ninth season set to commence in March, little is yet known about his character, a Lieutenant Colonel with the initials "M.M."
In our interview, Ben talks at length about joining the long-running show, and reveals that he's a big fan of Stargate. He shares what he knows so far about the new role, and what thought he has given to how he will portray "M.M." He also discusses his Farscape (and soon SG-1) cast mate Claudia Black, and what he thinks the two series do and do not have in common" Please Click Here For The Ben Browder Interview...

I have to say...that's an awesome interview. He's very knowledgable about the series, has picked up on a LOT of the nuances, and has convinced me that whatever his character brings to season 9 will be fantastic. His comparisons of Farscape and Stargate were extremely well-put. Maybe he's been asked that question a thousand times already and he can spout that kind of analysis in his sleep...
I'm IMPRESSED!

How many fans do you think felt that way about Anderson and McGyver? Depends on the looks.....only reason why I see such a distinction between o'neill and MacGyver is that Richard dean anderson is so much older and has really short hair while Macgyver looks so young and has long flowing curly hair..lol
