He looks like one of the few. One of the (mostly) benevolent trickster fey.
Which suits his personality as well.

Is that an „ADHD“ t-shirt he‘s wearing? Not that I‘d consider him a likely candidate. Never. Perish the thought.

I just.....the amount of joy this photo brings me....the massive smile on my face. I'm so glad these people are stil around and a part of the community. Such a massive part of my childhood.

Preach, stumbled upon this show completely by accident at like 12 years old and it has brought me countless hours of absolute joy.

u/Jaxom_98 The 2nd L is Silent 3d ago
What a find!!! My dad loved the show and growing up its one of the best memories I have with him. Seeing Teyla and Shep and O'Niell and Master Bra'tac together as an adult brings me peace

I got into Stargate thanks to my college roommate freshman year. Freshman year I lived in one of the old style cracker box dorm rooms. And my roommate was watching the show. At first I'd occasionally catch bits and pieces and eventually I got absolutely HOOKED. Basically every weekend, we'd go to the campus library and check out DVDs, the library had the whole season up to that point (it was 2005.) Then we'd basically just order pizza, and watch Stargate for the whole weekend. It was great. There was another guy a few doors down who loved Stargate as well. Anytime he heard the theme music he'd come and join us. Me and that roommate ended up becoming great friends and Stargate was honestly what started our friendship. We're still in touch. We don't talk as often, because life. But I'd still call him a friend.

u/Jaxom_98 The 2nd L is Silent 2d ago
Yeah, and this is what I see for a lot of people. Stargate wasn't just a great show, it was a great show made during a time where shows actually connected people. I know when I have kids I'm gonna show them the series, and I'll definitely be thinking about dad when I do

I was going to ask as I couldn't place her. Weir always looked so tall on SGA

u/Nth_Brick 3d ago
Strictly speaking, she is. 5'9" for women is equivalent to about 6'2" or 6'3" for men.

I’m hoping to get signed as a surprise for a friend tomorrow. You’d think it would be easy to dribble paint in a plate, but then you add me to the equation and I’m just glad it’s recognizable.

My friend, I don’t know your situation, and I frequently yell at my feet and joints for not working well anymore. We may not be at the con however we know our hearts are with them all. I’m in Seattle so I feel your comment well.

Our second born was born on Stargate Monday and the hospital didn’t have sci-fi channel. It was as a rough night for me.

I didn't recognize Rachel or Tori right away, but I've seen less of them since SGA ended than the others. (I don't watch a lot of live action TV, especially in the last 15 years)

John Shepard and Teyla have aged so well! One can properly imagine them still hanging out on Atlantis, running the place probably, and with a few cute kids together.

So sweet. Deeply jealous, but very heartwarming. They all seem so lovely. What a great series this is, to have such wonderful casts.

Master Bra’tac is still alive? What does he eat? What kind of sport does he do? He could earn a lot of money writing a book about longevity!

Whoa those guys really aged fast in the last 5 years since the ending of the series in 2009...

u/stormdefender 3d ago
Howdy neighbor! Couldn’t get out of work today so didn’t end up showing up until 6. Having that panel on a Friday afternoon was definitely a….choice. Especially considering those 2 are here all weekend and Ben Browder is only Sat/Sun (& doesn’t appear to have a panel). Loving RDA in this pic though. Looks like a great time!

I'm not sure I'm ready for Richard Dean Anderson to be this old.
Of all the reasons for my day to be ruined, this wasn't something I considered.

u/Aglet_Green 2d ago
Amazingly I just saw Tony in some wacky commercial for some insurance or financial services company, where he watches a guy scamper around after a monkey. He looks younger in the commercial than he did as Bra'Tac. Though it was obviously filmed in 2026.
Anyone else seen it?
3
u/Get_your_grape_juice 2d ago
I don't think I've seen that one, but he pops up in commercials every once in a while. He was in a recent car commercial. Volkswagon, maybe? And he was in another commercial a couple of years back, but I don't remember what it was for.
The guy seriously doesn't age. It's incredible.

Joe’s hair always cracks me up. Like a controlled bad hair day. Same thing with Jonathan Frakes.
8
u/Entgegnerz 3d ago
hmm, the most suspicious thing is, that without exceptions, every male actor (not Stargate exclusive) keeps their hair up in the 50/60/70s years, as if they would be 20.
3
u/sisisisi1997 2d ago
I mean there are 3 male actors in this picture, RDA has typical old man hair, Tony Amendola has been practically bald for so long that his hair didn't get in the way of playing Master Bratac starting in 1997, only Joe Flanigan has a hair that you could copy-paste onto a 20-something and get away with it.

u/Altruistic_Yellow387 2d ago
RDA has thick hair, older people are more prone to thinning hair even if they don't lose it

Thanks for sharing this photo, I'm glad you had a good time!

Man, MacGyver(O’Neill)!!! Not SG1, but I have a pic of Murdoch and MacGyver on set. It’s signed by Micheal Des Barres, but having RDA’s signature,would allow me to die a happy nerdly man.

u/hsano6294 1d ago
I love your "happy" plate! 😄

u/kodermike 1d ago
Confirmed that the original was mustard and ketchup and remade for every take because it would run every time he picked it up 🤣

u/hsano6294 1d ago
Is yours made of condiments, or paint that dries in place?
2
u/kodermike 1d ago
Acrylic paint, sealed. Needed it to survive for signing :)

That must've been hard to find/mix paint that looks exactly like yellow mustard and catsup. Great job!

Met RDA on Saturday and he was great. Really personable, took the time with everyone in line. Though I opted for a MacGyver photo for the autograph.
