szhismine: [Mr. Burns] excellent. *drums fingers* [/Mr. Burns]
foxy (fuechslein): we will keep the name alive with our names: HARPERfront and HARPERchondriacs ;)
GMW: If pressed, I wish the whole end of the thing had been a little bigger maybe and more involved for Harper, but it was Tribune and Tribune had their mandate etc.
szhismine: :D
magoghair: the harper is good
little red head: yay
JilliJ: stupid tribune
Hannah the writer: Apart from the Harper, who is your favouritest character you have ever played?
magoghair: yeah stupid tribune
GMW: Two characters: Sam Barlow in Shattered City and Srgt Huddy in Peacekeepers.
Parisindy: Gordon do you want to talk about Clutch or Mysterious Island?
GMW: both in the military! I just realized that
szhismine: what was your favorite episode of Andromeda? either to film or to watch?
GMW: either or you pick
little red head: Those were good ones
Parisindy: dear goodness i loved Peacekeepers
Hannah the writer: I haven't seen Peacekeepers yet.
Mercurys Winter: Loved Huddy!  Peacekeepers and Princes in Exisle are my favorite roles I've seen of yours...I stress that I've seen :D
GMW: Actually clutch was a lot of fun too. Put that one in the pot to (SPit)
JilliJ: maybe you have a secret desire to be military?
Janos (maggie): Hey that's fantastic! Somehow I feel proud that your favourite character was the one I asked about ;D lol
foxy (fuechslein): did you enjoy your time with Wildside? with all the animals
Eljay: Cool!  Sergeants Rule! I used to be one... ;)
Hannah the writer: Or do you like how you look in uniform? :P
Parisindy: i think there is a SPIT cult following... you were brilliant in that
GMW: Wildside was a life experience I cannot even describe.
foxy (fuechslein): a good one?
Hannah the writer: "don't make me taze you, bitch..."
Parisindy: hA1
AKAJipster: hehee
szhismine: i really wanna see Clutch, 'cause two great actors are in it :D
magoghair: if you could choose a character to be in a future pic what character would you want to play
GMW: Bitten by a cheetah, chased up a tree by a zebra, kicked by an Ostrich, waded waist deep in mud with Cape Buddalo...
szhismine: lol

Hannah the writer: Sounds like fun.
szhismine: sounds fun ;)

stokrotka: really??
Parisindy: really!?
GMW: No
Parisindy: hA!
celeste (acynti): Lol

Hannah the writer: You would make a great Kurt Cobain. :) You are good on guitar.
magoghair: hehehe
JilliJ: huh?
little red head: lol
GMW: Just joshing with ya
Parisindy: thanks goodness hehe
Eljay: Oh good--you had me worried for a minute.
szhismine: lol!
Macjr: I wondered.
foxy (fuechslein): you are a really good actor, thats true ... every role I have seen you in was good work
magoghair: you never know
little red head: silly Gordon
JilliJ: is it sad that I had to ask Jips who Kurt Cobain was?
Mercurys Winter: LOL got my hopes up! hehehe  8-}
Hannah the writer: yes, Jill, it is.
AKAJipster: I'm still laughing jill hehehe
GMW: When I had my hair long my wife said I looked like him (long time ago)
Parisindy: ha!
Macjr: He was local talent.
Eljay: DRugged-out rock and roller.
foxy (fuechslein): hehehe
JilliJ: :-P at Jips and Hannah
Hannah the writer: The long hair was cool.
Macjr: Lot of those around here.
magoghair: you'd have to wear flannel
stokrotka: hehehe
Hannah the writer: I remembered you to John Rhys Davies the other day.
foxy (fuechslein): like in Legend of the Gatorface
Parisindy: long hair - Herbert Pencroft :D
foxy (fuechslein): ;)
GMW: I would  love to do an action movie. Something like Indian Jones or something. If I could choose
JilliJ: that would be so cool!
sparkycola: great films!
Parisindy: OMG that would be the best!
szhismine: that would be cool :D
foxy (fuechslein): Indiana Jones? Great idea, i love it
JilliJ: *gets ready for GMW action figures*
magoghair: there supposed to be making a new indie
little red head: Ooh that would be cool. Love Indiana Jones
foxy (fuechslein): :D
stokrotka: that would be cool
celeste (acynti): Is there any chance in an Andromeda revival someday?  Or movie?
Eljay: Now that would be awesome.  The Indy movies were great and we could use something like that again.
szhismine: Indiana Jones: Canadian version
stokrotka: graet idea
magoghair: that would be cool
GMW: I doubt it Re Andromeda...
celeste (acynti): Aw
Parisindy: :((
Hannah the writer: Can we at least have The Harper Show?
foxy (fuechslein): *tries to see gordon as younger Indiana Jones* Looks good :D
GMW: The way Tribune made their money was to sell it up front and not invest promotion or time into it
Mercurys Winter: There were early rumors of a spinoff with the crew from the Maru, I would have watched that :D
Parisindy: not that i'm surprised i was heart broken the spin off didn't go
little red head: Can we say Stupid Tribune again?
magoghair: bad tribune
szhismine: when i take over the world... *starts daydreaming*
Parisindy: can we hit them with a trout?
stokrotka: very bad tribune
Woody000: *sighs* @big companies
foxy (fuechslein): they would sell more, if they'd think more about it
Eljay: I say we tribble 'em.
magoghair: when i win the lottery i'll buy it
JilliJ: or an otter?
AKAJipster: janos keeps getting stuck in the revolving doors :D
Parisindy: hehe we are a violent lot
GMW: They would never make a movie because they would have to shell out, promote etc. and there is no way to know if they would get a return on it because they never did that with Drom so we'll never know if Drom could have drawn big prime time numbers
Janos (maggie): Hehehe yes ;)
szhismine: lol
Eljay: Otters are harder to toss.
Mercurys Winter: Well, we *can* thank them for giving us Harper
celeste (acynti): Jeremy Horowitz had a great idea that maybe fans could finance their own sci fi shows.
JilliJ: :((
szhismine: good point MW
foxy (fuechslein): what about a prequel: Adventures of the Eureka Maru? ;) with lots of Harper, Beka and so on
magoghair: we know it would
szhismine: :D
szhismine: and Vexpag
sparkycola: That would be fantastic!
GMW: A prequel would be cool
little red head: well said Merc
Eljay: True--and we'll never loose Harper, either.  Series come and go, but good characters live forever!
foxy (fuechslein): :D
GMW: And ratface
celeste (acynti): That would be neat... a prequel. yes.
JilliJ: and Trance with tale
JilliJ: tail
szhismine: lol
foxy (fuechslein): hehehehe
stokrotka: hehehe
celeste (acynti): Definitely Genterex
szhismine: hey! Harper never got his 84,000 thrones!
magoghair: you could write the eps
little red head: Ooh a prequel would be great
Janos (maggie): Hey, you're right! :O
little red head: Ratface would definitely have to be in it
GMW: that's right! I never got my money
foxy (fuechslein): yes, with tail
Mercurys Winter: Pre-Andromeda, the hunt for Harper's money
celeste (acynti): Fear and Loathing in the Milky Way was one of the most favored episodes of all.
Eljay: :D
little red head: and Ratface shocked Harper
foxy (fuechslein): *rofl* :))
magoghair: you better be asking for that
szhismine: stupid Gerentex
JilliJ: for the record...Sparky didn't know who that Kurt guy was either O:-)
foxy (fuechslein): 80000 thrones ;)
GMW: Fear and Loathing was fun. Especially for Laura
foxy (fuechslein): or was it more ;)
Hannah the writer: He's a TV chef, Jill.
szhismine: no, 84000 thrones
JilliJ: I loved Fear and Loathing
Janos (maggie): I've got a quick question
Woody000: hehehe, good ep
szhismine: i know the episode by heart, i remember ;)
Eljay: I think Harper got some of his own back in F & L!  I loved it when he opened the door into Gerentex's face.
JilliJ: I recorded it so I can watch it up stairs since I can't watch my DVD's up there.
Mercurys Winter: Loved seeing harper's bad-@ss side
magoghair: me too
Parisindy: :D
celeste (acynti): yeah
szhismine: :D
GMW: heh heh B-)
sparkycola: lol
foxy (fuechslein): Gordon, did you watch Andromeda on TV?
Hannah the writer: Mmmm ... bad!Harper...
szhismine: and lots of Harper angst O:-)
little red head: Yeah bad Harper was sooo good
Parisindy: *paris will not talk about harpers ass* hehe
Janos (maggie): Gordon, do you prefer playing funny roles, or serious roles?
Janos (maggie): ohhh Paris!!
Mercurys Winter: LMAO
GMW: I watched the Andromeda dailies (everything you shoot before it gets edited).
Parisindy: opps was that outloud?
celeste (acynti): Or SERIOUSLY funny role. ;)
Janos (maggie): Lol :D
foxy (fuechslein): :)
little red head: Maggie I was gonna ask that. hehe Good question
Janos (maggie): Thanks :)
GMW: There were times when I thought the show was little over mixed. That's just personal taste thoug, not a criticism. I like lsee music etc. you also get a more accurate idea of your performance that way.. without all the music hamburger helper making you more dramatic
Mercurys Winter: LOL music hamburger helper hehehehe
Woody000: yeah I agree
Parisindy: lol
Macjr: I agree
Janos (maggie): Hahaha I've never heard it described that way :D
szhismine: *nods*
stokrotka: i agree
Janos (maggie): But it definitely helps ;)
Macjr: Some shows and movies do that way too much.
JilliJ: music hamburger...thta's what my fifth graders make all the time in orchestra
JilliJ: *hold ears*
Janos (maggie): I'll repeat my question: Do you prefer playing serious roles, or funny roles? (Or Seriously Funny roles ;) ;) )
magoghair: who's making hambugers
GMW: lol jill
Woody000: mmm... hamburgers
GMW: Seriously funny roles
Janos (maggie): Hahaha :D
szhismine: :D
stokrotka: hehehe
Eljay: Too much music is like an inappropriate laugh track.  Either it *is* dramatic or funny or it isn't--it shouldn't need that much help.  Some of the music was quite good mind you, but too loud at time.  Music hamburger? hehehee
Hannah the writer: Gordon, what is your favourite film?
foxy (fuechslein): and serial?
GMW: When the music isn't there you can tell if the actor is fudging or not
Hannah the writer: (that I might put it in shrine)
GMW: My fave film is called Paper Moon
stokrotka: really???
Parisindy: ooo cool:D thats a good one
Eljay: I remember that--saw it when it was in theatres.
Hannah the writer: I love that film!!!!
Mercurys Winter: imdb is now being inundated with searches for Paper Moon hehehe
stokrotka: cool!!
little red head: Ah yes the one that won Tatum O'Neil an Oscar
GMW: thats right
Parisindy: hehe @merc hehe
sparkycola: ah yeah the one with the con artist right?
Janos (maggie): I've never seen it... but with your recommendation, I'll rent it sometime ;)
Hannah the writer: Moze!!!
Hannah the writer: That's what I call Jips!!!
stokrotka: I love that kid
GMW: I think it is an example of perfect direction
foxy (fuechslein): and favourite serial?
sparkycola: wow! pretty high praise
Woody000: I've not seen it either, but I will now hehe
Eljay: Does it say something about me that I liked the con artist better than the kid? 
GMW: And a father and daughter acting together, her first movie and she gets an oscar.
sparkycola: lol
Parisindy: captain crunch is my favorite serial (j/k)
foxy (fuechslein): I have never seen it
JilliJ: LOL at Paris
foxy (fuechslein): sounds like she did a good job :)
stokrotka: she was really good
GMW: SPOILER......The relationship, the big wide shots and the fact that Ryan Oneil never admits whether or not he is her father...
Hannah the writer: Hehe the first time I saw it I couldn't believe she was smoking onscreen.
Janos (maggie): ...
Eljay: Sounds like you might have some plans that way?
Hannah the writer: They would not be allowed to do that anymore. :P
szhismine: what was your favorite episode of Andromeda to shoot?
GMW: the smoking I know!
Parisindy: hehe
Janos (maggie): Great question, SZH
Mercurys Winter: LOL well, I just saw brokeback mountain today, there was a lot of smoking in that movie :D
celeste (acynti): Tough question, perhaps.
GMW: Devils Divide was my favourite and and also most painful.
szhismine: :D
magoghair: why most painful
JilliJ: love that ep
celeste (acynti): Ah, that makes sense, as it was your baby.
Parisindy: OMG i love the devils divide!
GMW: When you write something it is hard to see it get changed as it inevitably it must, I know that as much as the next guy; but when your ideas fail or can't be supported you have to accept it and move on.
Hannah the writer: Where was it changed?
celeste (acynti): Fail? How?
magoghair: i see
szhismine: it was a very good episode though, i don't think you failed with it :)
GMW: Mostly it was just piddly stuff... like a lot of the science had to go and I spent a lot of time researching and coming up with a concept for it to work...
Eljay: That was one of the best episodes of the entire show!  The story covered so much ground--what motivates people, what the price of acheivement can be, what the consequences can be if we look just at what we want.... I could go on and on about that ep.  It was awesome!
Parisindy: i think that will /would be the hardest part...letting others frell with something you wrote...writing is very personal
foxy (fuechslein): thats bad :(
magoghair: it was still awesome
JilliJ: Like turning in homework and being told the assighment was changed.  Hate that.
celeste (acynti): Yes, it turned out great.
Janos (maggie): I agree, it was definitely one of the best ones of the series... and I'm not just saying that!
GMW: But still, most of it was preserved and it was a thrill to see it come to life.
foxy (fuechslein): :)
JilliJ: If it makes you feel better I was seriously yelling at Harper to not turn on that stupid machine before the end.  But he didn't listen.
Hannah the writer: I think when Rhade was electrocuted his hair should have stood right up like Harper's hair...
szhismine: and it was a thrill to watch it ;)
Mercurys Winter: Well, we were all very proud of you
GMW: Especially the Patriarch. He did it so awesome. He said those lines exactly as I had hoped, even better
stokrotka: hehehe
AKAJipster: why did Woody have to die? hehe
JilliJ: ah, Chevron Guy :)
Eljay: Oh yeah--he does "evil SOB" really well!
magoghair: i liked harper not listening to dylan
celeste (acynti): I loved the way you poked fun at the other characters in your Andromeda scripts.
sparkycola: It was great, you should be proud of it :D us fans all loved it!
GMW: thanks
foxy (fuechslein): :)
little red head: Poor Woody
GMW: woody had to die so there would be innocent blood on my hands
magoghair: awwww
Janos (maggie): :'(
Eljay: How did you feel playing "Commander Harper"--your own chance to play 'evil genius'?
szhismine: harper maniac has something to say, even though she doesn't know what to say...
JilliJ: *sniffles*
Janos (maggie): poor poor Woody...
stokrotka: awww
harper manic77: lol
stokrotka: poor woody
little red head: Poor Harper
Parisindy: woody rocks! both of them :D
Janos (maggie): I think releasing the Magog on the world was bad enough, honestly :P hehee jk
Mercurys Winter: the bloody hands weren't really followed up with on the show but I believe some great fanfic came out of that particular angst :D
Mercurys Winter: thanks!
GMW: I wanted there to be an episode where Harper really screwed up, for real, and almost gets kicked off. Because we never dealt with what happens when you may have to let a crewmember go
Janos (maggie): yes that's true
Hannah the writer: That last scene was stuck in my litle head for days...
celeste (acynti): Dylan would never have done that!
celeste (acynti): ;)
magoghair: that was cool i realy liked it ,but i didnt like dylan for a long time after that
stokrotka: yeah you are right
szhismine: i think i need to watch the episode again, lol ;)
Eljay: And Trance as much as said that the evolved Magog would have shown up sooner or later anyhow.
Janos (maggie): Haha
GMW: And for the record, space elevators made of carbon nanotube ropes actually exist (on paper)
little red head: Yeah lots of fanfic came from that last scene
Janos (maggie): :D
foxy (fuechslein): okay, now I know, that I couln't watch that episode because it is season 4 :((
stokrotka: hehehe
AKAJipster: I liked the conflict between harper and dylan
Macjr: I have read that
Parisindy: really you think if anyone got kicked off it would be beka or harper as both have 'wild' streaks
Macjr: At least three books
JilliJ: hey, does the Andromeda have an elevator for emergencies?  ladders are hard to cary stretchers up...
szhismine: i didn't like Dylan from Bunker Hill to The Shards of Rimni, then i started hating him again after that... don't remember why though
Mercurys Winter: The research for that ep must have been mind bending
Parisindy: gordon you should write an andromeda book!
sparkycola: I always thought Dylan was really unsympathetic to Harper. I'd a liked to see the Beka/Harper relationship developed more, too. What did you think about the relationships between Harper and the other characters?
stokrotka: yeah Jips you really like that conflict
sparkycola: Paris is right you totally should!
Eljay: I remember you commenting on that on one of the DVDs--I'm impressed that you did the research for the ep.  So many folks think they can just "make it up--it's only sci-fi, who's gonna notice."
magoghair: i didnt like dyln till he talked to harper in last ep in season 5
GMW: Harper and Dylan actually had the least conflict
sparkycola: Eljay- the difference between fiction and real life is that fiction has to make sense
AKAJipster: I know, I was always hoping for more hehe :D
GMW: dylan was just always yelling at him... but that's what Captains do
szhismine: hmm
foxy (fuechslein): of course
Hannah the writer: They should have done kung fu on each other. For a whole ep. And Harper should have kicked Dylan's ass. :P
sparkycola: He was very disapproving though
magoghair: which is why i didnt like him
Hannah the writer: And become captain...
Woody000: *cough* Trance/Harper *cough* ;p
Mercurys Winter: The dynamic I really liked (besides Harper and Rommie) was Harper and Tyr, awesome interaction and so much to play with between their very different pasts
GMW: I pitched an episode to them called SuperHarper once...
Parisindy: ooo good one woody :D
szhismine: *points to woody's cough and ndos*
sparkycola: all the characters should love Harper like we do!!
Mercurys Winter: Oooh, do tell!
JilliJ: ooh, would have watched that one
foxy (fuechslein): I like the special friedship between Trance and Harper :)
celeste (acynti): The fans would have loved SuperHarper!
JilliJ: of course, I watched them all, so I can't say much
foxy (fuechslein): friendship
Parisindy: SUPER HARPER (paris perks up)
Macjr: I liked the episode where Hrper and Dylan worked as a team
GMW: They didn't like it because Dylan is supposed to be so tough but...
Macjr: Forgot the title.
szhismine: lol
szhismine: Shards of Rimni!
Hannah the writer: Aw man does Harper get to beat up Dylan? And get all the laydees?
stokrotka: but...
Macjr: Second show of season 3.
Parisindy: OMG super harper would be cool... the commander harper was a lot of fun to
magoghair: they really ruined dylan character that way
szhismine: brilliant episode :D
sparkycola: Since when is Harper NOT super?
celeste (acynti): Yeah, they really went the wrong way making Dylan this god-like superman.
sparkycola: :P
Woody000: lol
Parisindy: good point sparky
magoghair: nobody liked him
GMW: A collector sends Harper to an all expense paid vacation to a sort of cyber get away where he plugs in the dataport and has a week of sexcapades in a matter of minutes...
foxy (fuechslein): but Super Harper wouldn't be the guy we love ;)
szhismine: lol!
Parisindy: *paris dies*
Mercurys Winter: LMAO
AKAJipster: hehehehe!
sparkycola: Lol!
Janos (maggie): Do you think they ruined Dylan, Gordon? I'm kind of on the fence abuot this one...
magoghair: i love it
harper manic77: LOL
stokrotka: hehhehehe
Woody000: lol!
foxy (fuechslein): good question, maggie
GMW: but while plugged in the collector downloads a whole whack of stuff, weapons schematics, kung fu, etc
Parisindy: dylan was a cool character... he just wasn't as cool as harper
Hannah the writer: I KNOW KUNG FU!
Janos (maggie): haha
szhismine: like Harper 2.0, 2.0?
Hannah the writer: Sorry, I used caps.
Parisindy: :D
Hannah the writer: So sorry, everyone.
Hannah the writer: I tried.
GMW: I'll get to the Dylan question in a minute...
Mercurys Winter: LOL @ szh
szhismine: ;)
magoghair: they shouldve done more with the dataport
Janos (maggie): Harper is always the best :) Trance and Beka were cool too.... ;)
Woody000: lol hannah
Parisindy: agreed goggy...i mean "hari"
little red head:  I agree Goggy
szhismine: Harper 2.0 squared
foxy (fuechslein): yes, maggie :)
Janos (maggie): haha
magoghair: hehehe
GMW: Harper goes back to the ship and is remotely activated by the collector. In a 'trance' he builds body armor, a force field some serious weapons and cleans out the entire ship, puitting the crew in the brink and taking over, delivering the ship to the collecter who turns it into an amusment park (he also has one of trimvere blackmailed to do a so-called official deal)
szhismine: whoh!!!!!!!!!!1
Mercurys Winter: LOL!
szhismine: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
stokrotka: lol
magoghair: wow
GMW: But they didn't like the idea of Harper kicking dylan's butt
Parisindy: OMG!
szhismine: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
celeste (acynti): :))
magoghair: we wouldve
Hannah the writer: There could have been a rollercoaster named after Harper.
sparkycola: :))
Parisindy: how cool would that be!
JilliJ: oh, that would have been the best!!!
Hannah the writer: The Harpercoaster.
foxy (fuechslein): sad ;)
AKAJipster: awww that would have been great hehehe
szhismine: *starts daydreaming*
magoghair: you should just write your own andromeda
Janos (maggie): :D
sparkycola: The Cola Roller ? has a nice ring i think
little red head: Harperland
GMW: heheh Harperdromeda
magoghair: hehehe
Eljay: :D  That almost sounds like the genesis of the "Commander Harper" ep--the Andromeda grounded and abandoned with tour-bots and such.
Parisindy: :D
Janos (maggie): Hahaha
JilliJ: wonderful
sparkycola: hmmm....Harperland....
szhismine: or at least write Andromeda fan fiction ;) post it on fanfiction.net or something
Mercurys Winter: LOL!  OMG that would have been great...poor Andromeda though, an amusement park?  oh the humanity ;)  I don't think harper could have done that to his Rommie, he would hav snapped out of it ;)
JilliJ: let's do it
Janos (maggie): In an ideal world... ;)
celeste (acynti): LOL
Parisindy: can we vote on it hehe
little red head: Sparkycolaland?
AKAJipster: they should have sent dylan away on one of his 'conferences'
JilliJ: all in favor say aye!
Hannah the writer: aye!
magoghair: aye
Parisindy: one day the harperchondriacs will take over the worl LMAO
Janos (maggie): aye!
GMW: About Dylan...
Janos (maggie):  :D
szhismine: lol
Woody000: aye!
foxy (fuechslein): no, the Harperfront will do ... or lets do it together :D
GMW: I don;t think they ruined him at all but I think maybe they made one mistake...
szhismine: nevermind Dylan, go back to SuperHarper! hehe ;)
celeste (acynti): Oh this'll be good. :D
Janos (maggie): the mistake being...?
magoghair: which is?
Janos (maggie): no no, I want to hear :D
little red head: Yes?
Mercurys Winter: an aliance Harper's front chondriacs
foxy (fuechslein): too many women
Woody000: (no flaws? :P)
Janos (maggie): (lol we're all saying the same thing in different ways ;) )
Parisindy: patience
szhismine: lol
magoghair: to perfect
GMW: The thing I loved most about Picard was when he was along in his room, drinking Earl gray, you could see that sometimes he was scared
sparkycola: nah he wasn't nice enough to Harper
foxy (fuechslein): thats true
Hannah the writer: So Dylan should drink Earl Gray?
Hannah the writer: I agree.
Woody000: indeed! (love that series)
stokrotka: thats true
magoghair: i see they shouldve showed dylan as more human
szhismine: ah, Dylan was always stoic and in control and stuff?
Janos (maggie): I see exactly what yuo're saying. That's exactly the thing I've always thought! :D
JilliJ: no, dylan should be scared.
celeste (acynti): Yeah, he should have had more vulnerability.
magoghair: me too
GMW: They never let him show his weak side. And that's just one dimensional. Kevin did an awesome job showing it in the first season, about his wife being gone, especially in the pilot
foxy (fuechslein): dylan shouldn't be the whole day hero, just be a man, a human, who can get hurt
sparkycola: absolutely
JilliJ: yes, I loved those parts with his wife :)  made me cry
AKAJipster: yeps
szhismine: yeah
magoghair: yeah i wouldve liked that more
foxy (fuechslein): yes, that was the time I really liked Dylan
GMW: But they sort of let that drop away and made him Superman. But even Superman had a weak side even if it was an alter ego
celeste (acynti): I LOVED Seasons 1 & 2 Dylan, but not 3.  He got better though.
Janos (maggie): It just makes him so the audience can't relate to him... if he's jst this big all-powerful guy all the time, he becomes less human
magoghair: i agree
Parisindy: i always thought there should be more about... dylan going 'whoa' it's 300 years later
foxy (fuechslein): terrible idea :(
stokrotka: that true
szhismine: the only thing that really annoyed me about Dylan was the constant "one episode stands"
little red head: I agree.
szhismine: with various alien women
Janos (maggie): :P yeah, that too hehe
stokrotka: even superman have a waek sides
JilliJ: the captian kirking :)
celeste (acynti): You saw it, Gordon, and the fans saw it.  Why couldn't Tribune see that?
foxy (fuechslein): yes
szhismine: i mean, i know he had to get over his fiancee sometime, but yeesh...
Woody000: because they're not writers
magoghair:  i thought dylan shouldve learned from harper how evil the universe had become
GMW: Yeah that got a little too much. Its easier to write sex then it is to write love
Parisindy: but that being said... it's why we love the harper... he is way more realistic in many ways *suck up moment* i say that is because of Gordon
szhismine: and what's her name from lava and Rockets? they could've made a good couple
Hannah the writer: Have you seen his forcelance?
Hannah the writer: *hides, totally hides*
foxy (fuechslein): of course, but it was a bad idea for andromeda :(
Parisindy: HA!
celeste (acynti): Yeah, Harper was multi-dimensional.
Woody000: LOL
Eljay: It's true--I think that was part of what made me feel less satisfied with season 3 and after--Dylan became too perfect.  Until they needed "drama" and then suddenly, instead of being a very strong, half heavy-worlder, he got kicked around by darn near anyone.  But he never became an emotional character like he was in the early seasons.
magoghair: people can relate to harper
Janos (maggie): Hah :D
Hannah the writer: Could not resist.
szhismine: lol hannah
Mercurys Winter: LMAO @ hannah!
Parisindy: resistence is futile :D
JilliJ: but i do like Dylan too.  (just had to say it, someone's gotta)
Macjr: Me too
foxy (fuechslein): another question: Gordon, what do you think about the relationship between Trance and Harper? Some people say love, but I say it is a special kind of a great friendship.
foxy (fuechslein): what do you think?
magoghair: i only liked dylan when gordon wrote for him
GMW: Well now I can let the cat out of the bag...
szhismine: ooh
Woody000: :O
celeste (acynti): (gasp)
foxy (fuechslein): uh oh
Parisindy: i read somewhere that you had a though Trance and Harper were in love...read that in a magazine somewhere
JilliJ: *looks for cat*
GMW: or maybe I should wait till the convention in Pasadena...
Mercurys Winter: watch out, it's a plot kitten
celeste (acynti): NO!!!!
foxy (fuechslein): ahhhhh! don't do that with us!
JilliJ: NO!
szhismine: no, we won't all be in pasadena! :p
GMW: A plot kitten! lol
stokrotka: no
celeste (acynti): :D
Janos (maggie):  ohhhh
JilliJ: only one of us will even be there!  (right?)
GMW: thats funny
Mercurys Winter: hehehee
Hannah the writer: Yeah, apaprently £2.56 won't get me there!
szhismine: there are also plot bunnies
JilliJ: cute little plot kittens...*listens to purring*
Parisindy: okay i so hate central canada it’s no where near pasedena
sparkycola: I'm really disappointed they didn't develop the friendship wtih Gold Trance and Harper, they seemed to barely relate to each other at all after that :(
szhismine: and i think there were plot gophers at one point...
magoghair: i'd go but airports scary
little red head: And plot moose
Parisindy: and plot moose
Eljay: And lets not forget the badgers.
GMW: In Lava and Rockets, I think, they wrote a scene where Harper admits to Trance that he would maybe have more than friend feelings for her...
Parisindy: hehe borg
Janos (maggie): :D
GMW: but then they just dropped it and never went back to it...
szhismine: ooh
szhismine: :(
Janos (maggie): :O How did I miss that...
celeste (acynti): argh
Woody000: bah! how could they? :(
Mercurys Winter: if she hadn't changed? or even though she was warrior trance?
stokrotka: i wonder why?
Janos (maggie): it's really unfortunate, they seem to do that a lot :(
GMW:  it was kind of bothering the actors a little bit that things were getting dropped and not carried on so...
JilliJ: wishs all lost scenes could be seen one day.
magoghair: they did that alot
Macjr: It bothered me too.
foxy (fuechslein): said :(
Parisindy: i can totally see that....
little red head: It bothered us viewers too
Eljay: Argh!  I always figured that Harper had figured out just how powerful she might *really* be and was scared of her.
sparkycola: yeah me too
Janos (maggie): :( even
Hannah the writer: Some of the lost scenes are the best.
szhismine: *nods*
GMW: Laura and I sort of decided to carry it through anyway and look for moments to fit it in that maybe there were feelings between us...
szhismine: :D
JilliJ: go you!
Parisindy: mind you it does give us fans hours of conversattions
magoghair: like the kiss
celeste (acynti): cool
foxy (fuechslein): :)
AKAJipster: hehe cools
Hannah the writer: Laura says you blush when kissed.
Mercurys Winter: I loved the little smile you gave her at the end, that's when I knew everything was cool. 
stokrotka: hehehe cool
sparkycola: i really loved the deleted scene where Harper sticks up for Beka and she's eavesdropping, the Flash episode
Woody000: lol

*we lose gmw from the chat*

szhismine: wha!
little red head: whoops
Hannah the writer: Paris!
foxy (fuechslein): uh oh
Eljay: Oops--have we lost him?
stokrotka: ooops
AKAJipster: don't worry... I'll try and find him hhe
JilliJ: you scared him!!!!
Hannah the writer: *blames paris*
szhismine: JIPS! do something!
stokrotka: we lost him?
Parisindy: hey!
Parisindy: wasn't me
