STARGATE CRACK: Michael Shanks & Claudia Black in NBC Sitcom

[campylobacter]

Yes, coming this Fall to NBC's Monday night lineup (which I expect to be pre-empted by NFL overtimes).

magnavox_23  started it in this spoilery thread:
"Daniel & Vala in San Fran? I smell a spin off! :D"

sg_wonderland  got the ball rolling:

From the NBC Press Office:
NBC jumps back into the sitcom business in a big way with this gem from a genre not necessarily known for their comedy - science fiction.

Michael Shanks reprises his Stargate SG-1 role as Dr. Daniel Jackson, a globe trotting archaeologist who is trying to remain anonymous as the government decide when and how to declassify the Air Force's super-secret space travel program. Part of the price for his escape to the sunnier confines of San Francisco was that he agreed to take charge of feisty alien Vala Mal Doran, played by the irrepressible Claudia Black.

Together, the two of them try to live normal lives in a friendly downtown neighborhood without anyone finding out that one of them is an alien and the other had multiple deaths under his belt.

Coming this fall to Monday nights!

 

campylobacter  discovered the details:
Whew! At least it's slated for Monday instead of the Friday Night Death Slot.

SERIES WORKING TITLE: "My Little Alien"

Episode 1: "Please Don't Eat the SUVs"

Vala's father Jacek drops by for a visit, and tries to sell "genuine meteorite fragments" to the neighbors. Unfortunately, the fragments ARE real, and emit a strange radiation that turns people into rampaging mutant beasts.

sg_wonderland comes across this episode teaser:
Episode 2: "My Favorite Archaeologist".

When a handsome, silver-haired fox in Air Force blues breezes into town and bunks with Daniel and Vala, the neighborhood buzzes with gossip about just who's zoomin' who.

campylobacter posts this teaser:
Episode 3: "Desperate Hausfraus"

The neighborhood gossip really heats up when Vala is seen downtown in a leather bar with a beautiful blonde astrophysicist while Daniel's sequestered himself at home with the Air Force general...
 

cleothemuse  discovers an exciting twist:
Episode 4: "Mi Casa Es Su Casa"

Following the last episode's explosive conclusion, Daniel and Vala are back on the job as Mongolian Death Worms invade San Francisco. Is this truly an alien incursion, or is this simply a marketing ploy gone horribly wrong?

Episode 5: "I Married Thor"

A strange gray, naked humanoid creature is seen working in Daniel & Vala's garden, prompting a visit from the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, and forcing the USAF general to intervene.

Episode 6: "The Real Mrs. Jackson"

A gorgeous, Levantine brunette shows up after an earthquake, claiming to be Daniel's wife. Daniel's shocked, but Vala's smitten...

Stay tuned as hilarity ensues for the most extraordinary off-world family since A.L.F.

We so need to make a community and write this ourselves. I volenteer to make graphics and help write some of the episodes. I think its a cracky and wonderful idea.

ROTFL!

"Porn Shack Productions: We Smoke the Crack So You Don't Have To"

I'm not kidding. We really should. We talked about doing one with SG-1 on Destiny but I think this is better and cracky. I think it would be fun to do.

*Shhhh!* Don't give away Season 2!

I totally agree, though. I mean, seriously, how much worse could it be than the craptastic reality shows and police procedurals on primetime already?
