Salutation, Curious Crowd? We’ve made it to the last day of our panel recap from FanExpo Vancouver! Allons-y!
Kevin Conroy
The crowd was treated with Kevin’s iconic “I AM BATMAN!” and spoke fondly about his relationship with Mark Hamill.
.@RealKevinConroy praising @HamillHimself on being the best Joker. According to Kevin, Mark gets such joy from watching the rest of the cast do their work.#FXV18 #Batman #OG #Joker

Jaleel White
While Jen and I were volunteering for the 501st Legion, Jaleel was entertaining the FanExpo crowd regaling stories from behind the scenes at Family Matters and voicing Sonic the Hedgehog.
Wil Wheaton
One of Wil’s favourite memories on set was when Patrick Stewart came running up a hill, dramatically spun around, and began singing ‘The Hills Are Alive’. Classic. The Mark Hamill lovefest continued as Wil shared how much he fanboyed over Mark at the table read for The Big Bang Theory. Wil also shared some advice on combating depression and anxiety: loving on his wife and pets, talking a walk or a bath, reminding yourself that you deserve to be loved <3
#WilWheaton speaking fondly of working with @HamillHimself on #TBBT. Wil's friend moved his name card so he could sit next to Mark at the table read. Mark's line was "Who are you?" to Wil. Mark stopped the read & said to Wil "I know who you are."#FXV18

Stargate (Joe Flannigan/Alaina Huffman)
Although this convention was the first time Joe and Alaina had met (since they were in different iterations of the show), they had such a wonderful rapport on stage. They tackled the not so glamorous side of working on a show with intensely passionate fans (Alaina recalled multiple instances where she saw picketers outside of the studio) and Joe shared a story of when Jason Mamoa mooned a fellow cast member. Never a dull moment for the Stargate family.
Q: What were the sets like?@AlainaHuffman: They were beautiful! But my favorite was the observation deck. #JoeFlanigan: We had a massive set where there were whole villages. Our sets were $20 million for our first season!#FXV18 #Stargate #Universe #Atlantis

Katee Sackoff
It was all giggles for our last panel of the con. Katee’s laugh is absolutely contagious. She spoke about her upcoming project, Another Life, and reminsced about her love for Starbuck.
.@kateesackhoff still sees everyone from the cast. She has weekly Skype dates with @trutriciahelfer.
Adorable! ?#FXV18 #BattlestarGalactica
