In early 2019 Aaron was in 3 episodes of the tv miniseries UNSPEAKABLE which starred Michael Shanks and Sarah Wayne Callies. On February 28th at 7pm EST Aaron and some of the other cast members will be joining Robert C. Cooper (the Writer, Director, and Executive Producer) for a video Q & A session.

Join Rob and special guest panelists, including cast members from the show, for this Q & A session as we dive deeper into the individual Episodes (5-7) of “Unspeakable.”

UNSPEAKABLE: Aaron’s first episode airs tonight on SundanceTV

For fans in the USA. It’s finally here. Tonight is the night. Aaron’s first episode of UNSPEAKABLE (1×04: Unsafe) is airing tonight (Friday April 12, 2019) on SundanceTV at 9pm PT / 12am ET. Chief Tyrol and Daniel Jackson!!!!

 

UNSPEAKABLE is an 8-part miniseries based on the true events of the Canadian tainted blood scandal, chronicling the decades long saga of two families impacted by one of the biggest medical disasters in Canada’s history.

In the early 1980’s, AIDS emerged and quickly became an epidemic. Those responsible for public safety failed. Thousands died. A second virus, hepatitis C, infected tens of thousands more. People were kept in the dark, afraid to speak out. Ignorance, arrogance, politics and economics all lead to betrayal, to cover-up, to scandal. Unspeakable is told from the perspective of two families caught in a tragedy that gripped a nation, as well as the doctors, nurses, corporations and bureaucracy responsible. The series follows the decades long saga as people struggled to survive, change the system and battle for compensation for those who desperately needed it.

UNSPEAKABLE: Final episode airs tonight in Canada

Tune in tonight (Wed Feb 27, 2019) at 9pm on CBC in Canada for the final episode of UNSPEAKABLE. I’m really going to miss Aaron and Amitai Marmorstein having scenes together. Those two together made me 😂🤣 so many times.

ICYMI: Unspeakable will premiere in the USA on SundanceTV on April 4th
Fun fact for you DIRK GENTLY fans. That’s Caroline Cave in the background of this photo. She played Lux Dujour’s girlfriend Sammy on Dirk Gently. She plays Nurse Ann O’Malley on Unspeakable. And Amitai Marmorstein was in S2 of Dirk Gently. There’s SO MANY Dirk Gently actors that are also on Unspeakable. I should make a post about it (I will make that my next project).

UNSPEAKABLE: Aaron’s third episode airs tonight (Feb 13, 2019)

Tune in tonight (Wednesday, February 13th) at 9pm on CBC in Canada for Aaron’s 3rd episode of UNSPEAKABLE (1×06: Krever). Tonight’s episode was written by Robert C. Cooper. Parts of UNSPEAKABLE are based on Robert’s life. He was born with hemophilia and required blood products which resulted in him contracting hepatitis C from tainted blood products in the 1980s.

FUN FACT: Aaron’s first tv gig was in Stargate SG-1 (playing Moac in episode 3×20: Maternal Instinct). That episode aired 19 years ago on Feb 25, 2000. And that episode was written by …… Robert C. Cooper.

UNSPEAKABLE: Will premiere in the US on SundanceTV (April 4, 2019)

For fans in the USA. We finally have a premiere date for Aaron’s 8-part miniseries UNSPEAKABLE that is currently airing in Canada.

Today at the Winter TCA (Television Critics Association), AMC announced that UNSPEAKABLE will premiere in a two-night event airing on April 4th and 5th (9/8c both nights) on SundanceTV in the US.

EDIT: It looks like it’s not airing at 9pm in the respective time zones. It will air at 9pm on the west coast, which means it will air at midnight on the east coast. That’s frakking ridiculous.

UNSPEAKABLE: Aaron’s second episode airs tonight (Feb 6, 2019) (Reminder)

Even though that look on Aaron’s face makes me think I’m going to need a box of kleenex, I’m excited to see this scene in tonight’s episode of UNSPEAKABLE (airing Wed Feb 6th at 9pm on CBC). When I visited Aaron in September last year he took me out to the location where this scene was filmed. He got lost while trying to find it which made us laugh because the day before he managed to find a particular tree in a forest from a BSG episode that he filmed over 12 years ago but couldn’t find the pond he filmed at 4 months ago. LOL.

UNSPEAKABLE: Aaron’s second episode airs tonight (Feb 6, 2019)

Tonight’s episode of UNSPEAKABLE was directed by Sarah Wayne Callies. Aaron asked Sarah for a selfie during the filming of that episode and we were saving it as a surprise to post on the day the episode aired. But Sarah (obviously not knowing that was our plan. Cylons have plans?!?) posted a photo to instagram of Aaron taking that selfie back in May 2018 (when the episode was filmed). The photo on the right is Aaron’s photo. SURPRISE!!!! ?

Tune in tonight (Wednesday Feb 6) at 9pm on CBC in Canada for episode 5 of UNSPEAKABLE. SPOILER ALERT: Jim wears some pretty awful 80’s shirts in tonight’s episode. If they’re not shown on screen long enough for you to appreciate their ugliness, I’ll ask him if it’s ok if I share the photos he took of them.
