Christopher Judge of SG-1 learns about Furries

Christopher Judge of SG-1 learns about Furries at DragonCon

Actor Christopher Judge from Stargate SG-1 asks what furries are when his co-star Michael Shanks mentions being freaked out after encountering a group of them at Dragon*Con. The audience and Michael's wife Lexa Doig explain it to him. His reaction is... hilarious. Taken at Dragon*Con in Atlanta this year, 2007.

Transcription of video before cue:
Michael Shanks: Although we can stop expressing ourselves at the Furries, I think(a comment drowned out by laughing - sorry!). We can limit the expression right before then.

Lexa Doig: Michael just learned about them last night.

Christopher Judge: What are furries?

Michael Shanks: I'll tell ya later.

Christopher Judge: Makes mention of something like "is it like gay porn or something".

Michael Shanks: Beep (I think he was trying to censore Chris at this point)

Audience Member 1: That's called slash.

Christopher Judge: What is it? What is it? (He wants to know about Furries still, but the audience member - I think - was confused and thought he was asking about the definition of slash).
(Cue video)
Audience Member 1: Slash is gay fanfiction.

Chris says something that's drowned out by many people talking, and Lexa (I think it was her, anyway) chimes in with the comment that Furries are anthropomorphics.

Alexis Cruz: Do we have a Furry rep here? That could give us a tutorial?

Me: Don't look at the girl in the ears. I just like the ears.

Christopher Judge: What is that?

Michael Shanks: Just...just...shhhhh.

Furry 1: People in furry suits!

Michael Shanks: I'll tell ya later.

Furry 1: People in suits! FURSUITS!!!

Christopher Judge: No, seriously?

Audience Member 2: Someone tell him. I want to see his expression, please? (meaning Chris'...boy did she get her wish!)

Michael Shanks: Damn, man.

Furry 1: They dress up like animals.

Audience Member 4: You started it (meaning Michael was the one who brought up Furries).

Christopher Judge: They dress up like animals?

Audience Member 3: You can whisper in his ear.

Michael Shanks: I started it, but he doesn't have to finish it! *smacks table* You could've just left it to die on the floor.

Michael says something that got lost in the general noise, then says "Children" which makes Chris wonder what that has to do with what Lexa just told him.

Christopher Judge: What's wrong...why can't a kid hear about people wearing animal suits?

*Gets a definition about what a furry is*

Christopher Judge: What?!?!?!?

Lexa Doig: Haven't you seen the episode of CSI?

Christopher Judge: What?!?!?!?

Christopher Judge: What?!?!?!? (yes, he's said it yet a third time)

Michael Shanks: That's right, ladies and gentlemen, you've offended Christopher Judge.

Christopher Judge: (incredulous) And I've never done it? (kind of garbled, but I think he then says) Where do you get the suits?!

Christopher Judge: Are you serious? (pause) What?!?!?

Lexa Doig: Don't you watch CSI? When there was a (the) 'show'?(then asking the crowd) Did you see the show devoted to the furries? *people yell from the crowd* Yeah, see! I don't know what season it is, but you can get it on DVD, it'll explain everything. (For those of you unfamiliar with it, it's called "Fur and Loathing" in season 4)

Michael Shanks: I am so sorry for starting this.

And then Marcia, the panel moderator, decided it was time to end this train of thought and asked Vanessa a new question.

F**k you CSI T_T but you cant blame it all on CSI, there is the furries that go out of there way to freak humans out...I love being a furry, but who gives a shit what people say anyway =3

[werehyenataur]

You do know that furries wrote the script to and starred in that CSI episode.

It's meant to be sarcastic, but it is an accurate portayal.

[werehyenataur]

omfg... you just compared fursecution to the Holocaust!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­!!! YOU'RE A FURFAG!!!

[clintallen123]

Fucking furries. Burn them all down.

[RexTyrannosaurus]

@werehyenataur I'm not gonna start a flame war, but I will state the following. The script was not written by furries, it was written by the normal writers. They contacted some California furries from SoCalFur convention to see if they would participate in the episode. Initial they were excited, but upon getting the fully script they tried to point out the blatantly false parts to give a more accurate view of the fandom. The writers decided to change nothing.

[Polydynamix]

All these angry people here... chill out, it's clear to us now, thanks to all your trolling, that furries are worthy of respect and admiration, I guess....

[Nevlamas]

I don't know what your problem is. I'm sort of furry and I can't stop laughing.

[SireSquish]

This is even funnier if you think of it as Teal'c learning about furries for the first time.

[moshadoe]

@werehyenataur Not really. IT was a stereotyping. 

[GuitarM0use]

WHAT! You mean Gilligan's Island is not real :'(.....I have lost the will to live......

[HowlsFury]

Furplay or *plushing* is when people ware the fur suits, not all furriers are into that.

Furries are just into anthropomorphic art and role playing ( like DnD or finale fantasy)

Yiffers are people who are into Furrie porn and some do, Furplay as well. just thought i might clear that up a bit. in the end i say what ever floats you're boat as long as its consensual and both parties are in sound mind to under stand what they are doing. l
