Battlestar Galactica - James Callis on Gaius: Paley Center

[TonyEvans96]

I like how he's the only one NOT with a water bottle... look carefully.

Lmao, I love the actor, I hate the character with a passion. Let's airlock him

[nickofmillertime]

Baltar is my favorite character. So much depth.

[psychicriver]

Argh, I hated Baltar, but James Callis is so funny! And so much like Baltar in his mannerisms!!

[calanais06]

He´s so charming, his fantastic English accent is so sexy, even that tie is cute... and he is so funny! This man is flawless!

And I agree with several of you, Gaius was absolutely the main character in BSG.

[necessaryevil101]

lmao

[VooDooEf]

i like that guy, i laughted my ass off watching him in episodes!

[shayaan2354]

Gaius FRAKING Baltar

[videovixen71]

He is just as charming (and handsome haha) as his character.. hehehe

[argonaut200]

1:26 apollo is like

"get your fraking hands off me. Now"

lol

[jburg1231]

@AsASeins baltar is the center of the entire plot when it comes down to it. hes not in many action scenes but his character is very complex. he represents a lot of themes. without him the show would be mostly space battles and action scenes. baltar is the most interesting character in my opinion because we see into his mind more than any other character

[leNOIRfae]

amazing actor and person, full of joy

[gorboy]

I'd buy tickets to a comedy show by James Callis :)

And he did a great job with the series.

[daladek]

he should be comedian

[tank4731]

He acually kept his accent unlike Jamie Bamber

[tribbleq]

@tank4731 Jamie couldn't probably because Olmos was already cast and the son is not going to have a completely different accent from the father. They even gave Jamie blue contacts so he actually looked like his son.

[AsASeins]

can't stand him in the show, I was so hoping he dies during the early season !!!

[flyinggeese426]

@AsASeins Same here-- but, all the same, he was the BEST character in many ways.

[AsASeins]

@flyinggeese426 no really, I don't like him in any way. 95% of the moments with him are boring (when he sees the 6 it's just useless). I'm not saying is'nt a great actor or whatever I just can't stand the character

[93n371cfr34k]

@AsASeins that means he's doing a pretty good job in the acting ;)

[Discobiscuit1231]

@AsASeins If you truly don't understand how important he was to the entire series, you're an idiot. He was the main person in the series he was the one who made you think, If he wasn't in the series BSG would be nothing.

[DarkDarvor]

Best character on TV ever. As simple as that.

[RealityDefenseLeague]

@DarkDarvor Best assortment of characters ever in one show (period)

[Dantallus9000]

Great great actor.

[maulcs]

Gaius is fucking awesome

[guineverenaberrie]

love when he goes aussie hahaha

[Barlovento81]

uy uy uy...............

[alicelops73]

lolololol 

[AlannahClaire]

Favourite line of the whole series: "He tried to kill me! And he missed! ... Butterfingers!"

[eelisabethh]

@AlannahClaire I know x) He's hilarious! Another good one: “I just don't respond to the title 'Doc.' A dock is a platform for loading and unloading material. My title is "Doctor" or "Mr. Vice President," if you don't mind." :P I love this guy!

[abyssus99]

@AlannahClaire

Agreed :D

[Nartakh]

I dont see how anyone can top bsg

[DocWyldeCard]

@Nartakh

So say we all.

[ducksoup2007]

where can i veiw the whole interview

[GrissomLovesSara]

i adore james callis as james callis. Didn't like Gaius Baltar though I realize Callis was great in that role

[elfquestlove]

James Callis doesn't do too bad of an Aussie accent. He's actually does the best accent i've ever heard coming from any other country!

And being a native Aussie, that's saying a lot :P

[saijq]

@elfquestlove

Mate his Australian accent is absolutely spot on... he sounds more Australian than I do

[MyraLaRyn]

He does such a great Aussie accent! Great with the accents and stuff as always, anywho.

[ducksoup2007]

where can view the whole video

[teknizian]

best character of bsg

[luckycharm222]

oh yes!!!!

[amylh322]

Did any of you think the Baltar character didn't deserve .... i don't want to spoil for anyone who hasn't seen it yet - how his character comes to a close? I was OK at first and then thought "That shouldn't have happened" because of so and so...

OK, that was vague.

And I must add - James is FAB! I saw him play Hamman in a film about Esther (from the Book of Esther in the Old Testament) and he was a bloody good Really Bad Guy there!

[TheRealGrimRainbow]

I agree with your vagueness.

[amylh322]

Hee :) Thank you! You might be the only one :)

[TheRealGrimRainbow]

Forgiveness and perception of doings and misdoings was one of the many interesting things of the series. It's hard to talk of such things without typing a potential spoiler or 9 but I felt that a lot of people got off light to say the least and some got the heavy hand.

[GrissomLovesSara]

me . totally. i agree with you

[mintclan]

Ohh yes. Gaius for president! ...oh wait.

[sjvan0]

Wow, he nailed the Aussie accent.

[amylh322]

Yes! It so hard to do... I could do pretty much any accent, but gave the heck up on Oz. There's something about how the words curl under...

and a bad Australian accent is nobody's friend ;-)

[ducksoup2007]

does anyone know where i can veiw the full interview

[chuvv]

Man, I'm Australian, and he *nailed* our accent. That's very rare. (Just kind of shuddering at the thought of the guy in JAG, and when David McCallum tried to pull one off in SeaQuest DSV.) Go James.

[HisDivineShadow245]

He also does a passable Aerilon accent. :D

[TheInfinite91]

He *nailed* the sterotypical accent, but I hate that accent, and I'm glad I don't talk like that lol.

[chuvv]

Well, yeah, you're right. Neither do I. :) But I haven't heard anyone do even our stereotypical accent well since Merryl Streep in Evil Angels.

[TheInfinite91]

Yeah that's true =D

[Drwhosmate1]

Gosh he is just so so gorgeous, his voice, his hair, his intellect, his wit. My oh my.

[Icepacalapse]

Gaius Baltar.....he's the motherfrackin shit.

[darkasthesky]

hahahaha

he so funny

[Z985]

he is actually quite a funny guy.. lol

Especially when he mentioned his first sex scene lol.. auditioning for it.

[Cmet332]

omg he was my favorite character he was sooo funny

[Neoony]

@Cmet332 yeah he has been acting wery well in bsg

[Deadman6990]

James doing the australian accent had me laughing my ass off.

[Yariene]

James Callis is so charismatic.

[nanno121277]

you can get the full show on iTunes, besides that I have no idea where else to vie it.

[JohnnyDeppFan1433]

James is SO hot

[daisex]

yup...I want me some James...for life

[everythingshiny]

That's a great Aussie accent...good job him :)

[MisterMunt]

Wow. A non-Australian who can do a decent aussie accent

[ducksoup2007]

i have seen all the BSG Paley Center video but the videos are incomplete where are the rest does anyone know

[Stormtjakka]

"Owh yes'

LOL

[Jrch01]

Suprizingly funny! ^^

[rhyfeddu]

He's hilarious. Loved his Aussie cameraman.

[kixxa33]

What a sweet and funny man James Callis is.
