Dear My Friends,

Do you think Show recycles actors because they know what a kick we get out of it? Because personally, I love it.

10x10: Bradley Stryker, (also 4X11) and Russell Roberts(10x10, 10x3, 7x19), even though my ridiculous brain keeps calling him Dr. Beardface. Beard-fah-say, damn it!!

I *LOVE* seeing the same actors in different roles! Especially when the characters they play are so different--very interesting to see! :D

I think it's because Vancouver has a limited pool of actors ;D.

I think so. I can't count how many times I've been watching, thinking; why do they look so familiar? Only to look them up and discover that, yes we have seen them before. ;p

I love catching a familiar face and then trying to pin down the ep before I look them up! :)

Back in the '90s there was a joke about the recycling of actors in Canadian-made shows: There Are Only Twelve Actors in Canada! It would've been a meme if they'd done those then. :)

LOL! I can see it's true--I drive my family crazy with, "See that guy? He was on SpN--"

All I have to say these days is "see that" and they're all, "WE KNOW."

And the sheer number of guys who were on the various Stargate franchises! It's what, 16, 17 seasons all told? It's gotten to the point where if something looks even a little bit like it was shot in BC and Dad asks, "Where do we know that guy from?" the answer's, "Well, it's a Vancouver production, so probably Stargate." And it gets worse when you consider that between Supernatural, the Stargates, and Smallville we're looking at almost 40 seasons!
