Little birds have tweeted that we haven't seen the last of Dr Trevor/Charles Grant! The finale for Eureka was shot last week, and James Callis was in attendance. I'm quite excited about this! He was a no-show in the second part of season four (unsurprisingly, as we knew he was in Delhi while they were filming it). Dr Grant might just come to wrap things up neatly, or wreak more havoc. We'll see!
Edward James Olmos announced at Dragon*Con that he, James, and Ron Moore were going to Portland to shoot "an improv BSG skit"! :D This sounds awesome, and just up James' alley. I wonder what the skit will be like, with just the Admiral and Gaius Baltar. If it's anything like the Music of BSG segment, we're in for a treat. Edited to add: Oh, and it's apparently on a show called "Portlandia", which I had never heard of. So a guest starring role! Nice! Also something I can expect to see online soon after it airs. Watch this space!
Tricia Helfer, on the other hand, mentioned that she and James used to take shots of scotch before love scenes. Heee! They really needed alcohol to find each other attractive? I'm starting to wonder if Gaius Baltar's drink glasses contained actual scotch instead of some fake swill. BSG set was an openminded place...
During the past week, James has apparently managed to be in Vancouver, Portland, Zürich, Delhi, LA and London. (Or at least all of the airports, if I deciphered his tweet correctly.) This will only fuel the rumors of Mr Callis being Jesus, or Santa, or an unknown super-powered entity. We'll keep watching him for signs of greatness and report as need be.
If indeed Mr Callis had flown through the air without the means of a plane, we imagine it would have looked something like this...

>>They really needed alcohol to find each other attractive?
LOL, I think the drinking before sex scenes was less about finding each other attractive and more about not feeling awkward and self-conscious. Someone (probably Aaron Douglas) made a joke that he was worried about getting, y'know, excited.
Also, LMAO at the cartoon.
LMAO!! Maybe so! Of course it looked less conspicuous if Tricia was also drinking. ;)
I think he should be a cartoon hero. Jamesman - the defender of cigarettes, the jokester who makes all the villains die from laughter! He can be anywhere at the blink of an eye! London! Delhi! Vancouver! Swish!
I agree with Nicole, I think it was entirely about them just being more comfortable with one another, since they were being asked to immediately grope one another and roll around barely clothed. Also, because they're precious.
And because BSG set is an awesome place where they could have shots before a scene. I was only kidding about the attraction anyway, we all know James is attracted to Tricia, and I dare say it's mutual.
Btw, I HATE YOU GUYS BC YOU GOT TO MEET TRICIA. *sulks* If there are pictures and/or reports about the event, I will get somewhat less sulky. ;)
Pictures/reports are coming soon! I've started typing it up but haven't had time to get the whole post finished. It'll definitely be by the end of the week.
One of the panels is on Youtube, but it suffers from Richard Hatch-itis, and I didn't see the Tricia comment about scotch, so I'm guessing there was more than one panel?
Looking forward to your pix and reports! But no pressure :)
