The SG-1 Theme Song!

Did you know that there are lyrics to the Stargate: SG-1 theme? No. Really. ish.

While Scorched Earth was the first script we wrote for Stargate PRIOR to officially joining the production, Window of Opportunity was not, in fact, the first thing we wrote AFTER we landed on staff. No, that distinction goes to the lyrics to the Stargate: SG-1 theme song Paul and I composed shortly after moving into our offices.

Over 12 years, 14 seasons, 350 hours of television - I feel that this remains one of the best things we ever wrote for the franchise. Director Peter DeLuise coaxed us into performing it for one of the DVD extras. Enjoy.

Stargate Trivia: "The Ties That Bind"
#SaveStargate

This episode, originally titled “Treasure! Treasure! Treasure!”, ran long and, as a result, I had to cut one of my favorite exchanges, part of the scene where an undercover Mitchell encounters alien mercenaries
Tenat and Jup...

Tenat eyes Mitchell.

TENAT: Your name?

MITCHELL: Cam Mitchell, bounty hunter.

TENAT: Never heard of you.

MITCHELL: I try to keep a low profile, let my work speak for itself. Don’t like to brag, but I’ve captured some of the most dangerous criminals around.

TENAT: Such as?

MITCHELL: Well … Grabthar the Hammer.

TENAT: Never heard of him.

MITCHELL: The Olsen Twins of Omega 3? Moesha the Vile?

TENAT: No.

MITCHELL: Trebek the Destroyer?

Jup pipes up –

JUP: Him I’ve heard of.

This was one of my favorite scripts of my 11+ year Stargate run. I loved the opportunity to write an all-out comic episode – and greatly appreciated the fact that I was supported by actors who could deliver the funny.
From our series regulars to this episode’s guest stars, all were brilliant.

Another scene that I had to cut at the script stage sought to answer the age-old question: “What happens if you need to go to the bathroom on a cargo ship?”. In the scene, Jup is at the ship’s controls when the door behind him slides open and Tenat enters, pulling up his pants. "Don't forget to flush!" says Jup, prompting Tenat to initiate the ring transport. Question answered! And then my fellow producers made me cut it. 🙁

One of the many amusing memories of this episode concerns guest star Wallace Shawn (Vizzini in The Princess Bride. Inconceivable!). During the casting process, a local actor came in and did a pitch perfect Wallace Shawn impersonation for his audition. He was so convincing, in fact, that I was completely won over - and ended up putting an offer out to the real Wallace Shawn.

Prior to his arrival, I was told Wallace was very excited to be working on the show because he was, in fact, a huge fan of SG-1. So, on the day of his costume fitting, I went downstairs to say hello and welcome him to Stargate. “So, you’re familiar with the show,”I said. “Oh, no, I’ve never seen it,”he informed me. “I don’t even own a t.v.”.
