SHOW PATROL: Brian J. Smith on the end of 'Stargate Universe'
By Curt Wagner
March 7, 2011
Brian J. Smith seems fairly pragmatic about the end of “Stargate Universe,” the Syfy series in which he has starred for two seasons.
“It definitely hurts to have shows you like get cancelled—and it really sucks when it’s a show you’re working on,” he said last week on the phone from New York City. “But there is nowhere else that you can get 40 episodes of 'SGU,' or [a show like] 'Caprica' on, other than a boutique-type, specialized, genre-based network.”
Syfy begins airing the final 10 episodes of the controversial series at 9 p.m. March 7 with “Deliverance,” an action-packed hour that picks up where the series left off in December. The Destiny crew stares down an army of drone ships programmed to destroy anything in its path. Smith’s character, Lt. Matthew Scott, faces a tough decision when he suspects his girlfriend, Chloe Armstrong (Elyse Levesque), may have sabotaged the ship. (WATCH a preview by clicking the "SGU videos" link at left.)
"I love the episode,” Smith said. “I think it has a lot of [stuff] in it that the fans will enjoy. More space battles—it starts with one and pretty much ends with one, too...”
