It’s hard to believe, but we’re looking at only three more days of production on Episode 201 before we break for holiday hiatus.  Director Amanda Tapping has been  all-systems-go and is set to deliver one hell of a season premiere.  With an assist from stunt coordinator John Stead, today’s on-set action was simply…Wow!

Tomorrow, it’s the infirmary, a production meeting, and the cast read-thru for Episode 2o2.

A few behind-the-scenes glimpses of my day…

  1. Would so like to see/know what’s going on in front of the camera but … I know … I have to wait like everyone else 😏
    Not sure what’s going on with Matt … *hem* ..there …. That sequence of scenes in ‘Love Actually’ comes to mind …. 😶
    Good to see Marc B looking so chipper. Glad you’re feeding him the decent stuff and not that … umm … crap Three’s been tweeting about!

  2. Sorry, did mean Anthony Lemke’s tweet – can’t imagine Three tweeting somehow!

  3. Oh look! your private pool comes with…..eh, built-in massagers? 😙
    But where’s the jacuzzi?

    I like the techno-crane – how long did it take to set up this shot?
    And how much screen time will this particular shot have?

    Great to see Marc Bendavid again

  4. That ‘pool’ looks large enough to fit all the raza crew in, does it float, or is it a means of an escape shaft? 5 is usually moving around in smaller spaces than the width of the pool, she is braver than I. Have a great day!

  5. That looks like a fun day! I hope y’all have a safe drive X-mas.

    That Sushi pic made me hungry….

  6. Is that a strip of ahi in the middle of(what looks to be) the seared ahi nigiri?

    Interesting….

  7. Everything is looking great, including that sushi! I’m expecting big things from this next season. You guys better not disappoint! 🙂 (I know, I’ve nothing to fear.)

  8. Jalapeño on sushi, looks tasty. Btw who is in charge of blurring out spoilery script pages and posters on the blog? Cuz they’re doing a good job of hiding spoilery stuff. Too good, grumble grumble. Thanks for brightening up the blog with One’s cute mug and that yummy sushi.

  9. Any day that ends in Sushi is a good day! As always thanks for the pics/teasers….June 2016 is too far away!
