012: Robert C. Cooper, Writer and Executive Producer, Stargate (Interview)

Stargate Writer and Executive Producer Robert C. Cooper joins us in a nearly 2-hour-long PRE-RECORDED interview to explore his career with Stargate. We discuss setting up the mythology in "Torment of Tantalus," creating races like the Ancients and Replicators, and take time to delve into his recent project, "Unspeakable."
