UNSPEAKABLE: Trailer (Version 2)

Here’s a NEW trailer for Aaron’s upcoming tv series UNSPEAKABLE. It’s an 8-part miniseries based on the true events of the Canadian tainted blood scandal. It will premiere on Jan 9th on CBC in Canada (I’ll post a reminder when it gets closer to the air date). It will be airing on SundanceTV in the USA and AMC Studios will manage worldwide distribution outside of Canada. Aaron plays Jim Krepke in episodes 4, 5 and 6. There are two new scenes with Aaron at time stamps 00:58 – 01:11 and 2:19 and he’s shown very briefly at time stamps 01:49 and 02:08 (these scenes were in the original trailer). I’ll post the synopsis and screen caps of him in the trailer in the comments.

THE FLASH: 100th Episode Party

Tonight there is a red carpet and party for the 100th episode of THE FLASH. Aaron will be there (he played THE TURTLE in episode 2×10, which was the 33rd episode). Fingers crossed that we get some photos of him at the event. #TheFlash100. I will update this post with any photos/videos that I find.

SECRET PROJECT

Aaron is currently filming an episode of something that has to remain a secret for now (he had to sign an NDA). But one of his co-stars in it is Allison Tolman who played Molly Solverson in S1 of FARGO and she tweeted this photo. I *LOVE* that she’s a BSG fan.

“I worked with Aaron Douglas this week, and while I tried to play it cool, I ultimately failed. #BSG #FanForLife #SometimesYouHaveToRollAHardSix”

WHEN CALLS THE HEART: Aaron Douglas to guest star

When I was on vacation in Vancouver in September, Aaron filmed a guest starring role in episode of a tv series and I was lucky enough to tag along. I wasn’t allowed to watch him film (I had to stay in the trailer) but while everyone was on a lunch break Aaron took me for a walk around set. Can anyone guess what the show is from the photos? And you can’t cheat because I haven’t added it to his IMDB page yet ?

EDIT: Julie guessed correctly. Aaron is going to be on an episode of WHEN CALLS THE HEART. He will be in episode 6×11. I will post a reminder once it gets closer to the airdate. According to Wikipedia the shows airs on the Hallmark Channel in the United States and on Super Channel and CBC in Canada. And internationally on Netflix.

Evil Spirits Vodka

HAPPY HALLOWEEN. I bought this Evil Spirits vodka when I was in Vancouver visiting with Aaron last month. I suggested that we drink the vodka and then play with the Ouija board and he flat out refused. I think he was actually scared. That’s what watching wayyyy too much Ghost Adventures will to do you. He knows better than to mess with the dark arts ?

UNSPEAKABLE: Red Carpet Premiere

Tonight there is a screening of the pilot episode of UNSPEAKABLE for the cast and crew. So hopefully there will be some red carpet photos of Aaron taken that I can post. I asked him where it was being held and after I googled the venue I’m thinking “that place looks familiar”. It was used in the BSG episode 1×11: Colonial Day. So now I’m sending him screen caps from the episode saying “get photos of this, get photos of that”. lol.

UNSPEAKABLE: Facebook Page

For those of you in CANADA there is a Facebook page for Aaron’s new tv series UNSPEAKABLE (please see previous posts for the trailer and synopsis). They have geo-blocked the page so that you can’t see it if you’re outside Canada. I’m in Australia so when I click on the link from my phone it just takes me to my news feed. If I do it from my laptop it tells me “Sorry, this content isn’t available right now. The link you followed may have expired, or the page may only be visible to an audience you’re not in”. UGH. Mother Frakkers!!!! They did the same thing with the trailer and geo-blocked it but I found away around that. And I’ll work out the FB situation too so I can share any info.

UPDATE: I found a way around it. I can now get into their “Canada only” Facebook page for UNSPEAKABLE. So I’ll pass on anything posted on there. ~ michelle (admin)

Aaron at the 00:55 time stamp in the trailer. When I visited with him in Vancouver last month he took me to this location. So I’ll post photos of that once the episode airs.

DIRK GENTLY: Aaron wearing the Lux Dujour Coat

Soon I will start the long journey home to Australia. One of the highlights of my vacation was Aaron surprising me by dressing up in the Lux Dujour coat and the glasses that I won in the Dirk Gently auctions. He put on the Gordon Rimmer voice and stayed in character the whole time that I was doubled over laughing ?

EDIT: Here’s a clip of Aaron in the coat from DIRK GENTLY https://youtu.be/TfOsl7ZinXI. If you’re in the USA you can watch the show on HULU. For the rest of the world, it’s on Netflix.

Maplewood Farm

Today I made Aaron go to a children’s animal farm with me ? “I will love him and hug him and pet him and squeeze him and rub him and kiss him and I will call him George”.

DIRK GENTLY: Business Cards

Look what Aaron found in one of the pockets of the bag he takes to set. It’s the business cards that Dirk throws at Gordon Rimmer in episode 1×02 ❤️ Yeah, he’s not getting these back ? #DirkGently

ARCHER: BarkBox Opening Day (September 24, 2018)

For Christmas last year I got Archer a 12 month subscription to BarkBox. Aaron held on to this month’s box so I could watch Archer open it #BarkBoxDay.

Aaron Douglas (@theaarondouglas) September 24, 2018
It’s #BarkBoxDay for Archer. Let’s see what @barkbox sent this month.

CHIEF!!!!!!

Here’s a fun little video that Aaron and I shot for everyone. Enjoy ?

https://www.facebook.com/AaronDouglasFans/videos/2209273649347506/

FILMING LOCATIONS: Dirk Gently

(Video 1 of 3) While we were still out at Riverview (for BSG locations) we visited the building that was used as the ‘Animal Transfer Unit’ on DIRK GENTLY.

https://www.facebook.com/AaronDouglasFans/videos/664087717342458/

 

As you can see from the screen caps from the show they built a facade in front of those two sets of doors to make it just one entrance.

 


(Video 2 of 3) This is the back of the building from the previous video I posted. This is the scene where Gordon Rimmer is throwing away his Lux Dujour items in the dumpster but decides to keep the coat. In another episode it is where the fight between Gordon and Estevez (played by Neil Brown Jr) takes place.

https://www.facebook.com/AaronDouglasFans/videos/1903449083079412

 

 


(Video 3 of 3) This location is from the episode 1×07: Weaponized Soul where Gordon explains his plan to his henchmen (Men of the Machine). The scene was filmed in a huge derelict warehouse. But when we got out there …. watch the video … you’ll see.

This is a photo that Aaron sent to me while they were filming the episode. THIS is what we were hoping to find.

Photos from Aaron on the top. Screen cap from the show on the bottom.

FILMING LOCATIONS: Battlestar Galactica

(Video 1 of 2). Today (September 19, 2018) Aaron and I went out to Cleveland Dam to find the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA filming locations in the episode 2×03: Fragged. We were wandering around in the forrest for AGES. I was thinking “all these trees look the same, we’re never going to find it”. But also thinking that it didn’t matter because it was still a great experience/memory to be wandering around Kobol with Aaron. But then OH.MY.FRAKKING.GODS!!!! he found it!!!! We were totally fangirling!!!! lol.

EDIT: If anyone needs to refresh their memories, this is the scene.

(Video 2 of 2). As we were leaving, Aaron says “Let me see if I can find where Crashdown got shot”. So he wanders off and OMG, he found it!!!!! It was so great to share this experience with him. He was SO EXCITED that he was able to find them seeing as it was 14 years ago that the episode was filmed.

Look who I found while walking around the Kobol Forrest ?

Today (September 20, 2018) we went out to Riverview. A bazillion things have been filmed out there but you might recognise this building (Crease Clinic) from the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA episode 2×05: The Farm.

EDIT: I found a video clip of the scene from BSG

DIRK GENTLY: Gordon Rimmer’s Coat

OMG!! OMG!! I won Gordon Rimmer’s coat in the DIRK GENTLY auction!!!! I am SO EXCITED. It cost a fortune *cough*USD$3,995.49*cough* but it’s worth it. To me, Gordon Rimmer’s coat is as iconic as Chief’s orange coveralls.

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: 10 Year Anniversary of last day of filming

Today is the 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the last day of filming (July 10, 2008) of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. This clip of Aaron after he wrapped gives me all the feels ??. We miss you, Chief ?? #BSG10years.

You can watch the 17 minute BSG: THE LAST DAYS video at https://vimeo.com/31525437. Even after all this time that video still makes me tear up.
