I think in stargate he is still playing is old role of Farscape... he is just bad.. very bad!
Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Ben Browder. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
Ben Browder gives his ALL, totally immersing himself in any character he plays. In particular I would draw your attention to the role of John Crichton in Farscape. From the innocent IASA astronaut in Season 1, to the tortured soul in Season 2 - 3, to the ultimate sacrifices in S4, to a happy ending (for now) in PKW miniseries. Ben is a very talented actor, strives to be a perfectionist, a deeply devoted family man, all that and easy on the eyes to boot. He could make reading the phone book a pleasurable experience! Looking forward to his misscellany of future projects.
Ben Browder played Colonel Mitchell in Stargate SG-1 and he also played the main character in Farsacpe. I have never seen Farscape so I am judging Ben Browder's acting talents solely on his performances in Stargate. Honestly, I don't think he's that good. He's very mediocre and average. His character, Mitchell, is like a O'Neill wannabe. He has a dry humor and he just doesn't act well. I think if they had a better actor playing the character it would be better, but he's just annoying. His voice is abnoxious and his acting isn't good. I will have to admit that he's cute, but that's about it. He's just average and I don't think he has enough talent to get any more acting jobs.
Ben Broder my favorite tv actor of all time has more talent than i have ever seen in anyone! This man can do so much more! I would love to see him in a comic book movie such as Marvels X-Men as Gambit! I think he would make an awesome Gambit with his sarcastic attitude and sexy way of speaking! To me he is just amazing in Stargate but fantastic in my all time favorite show Farscape! He looks amazing in leather and cotton! You got to love this man! He and Claudia just have this great chemistry on screen! I wish i was her! hehehehe I had to put that in there! Ben Broder is the wave to the future in tv and dont be suprised when you see him in a wide release movie because im telling you hes got the stuff stars are made of!
I am from Belgium and the very excellent series Farscape got never aired in my country.
So I first saw Ben Browder on Stargate SG-1, my personal favorite show. I was disappointed about Richard Dean Anderson leaving the show, and thought: "Damn, they replace him with some cheap guy!" But then I realized, Ben Browder brought a whole new flair to the series. His coolness, different kind of Humor and wit are just a few of those qualities. I finally liked the Character of Cameron Mitchell a lot. Season 9 and 10 of Stargate just wouldn't have been that good without him.
But then I came across the amazing series Farscape! This is Science Fiction at its best! And Ben Browder's performance in this show is just tremendous! I liked everything about his Character John Crichton! How he ends up in another part of the galaxy and has to learn everything anew. Humanity are small children in this vast galaxy and nobody could have played this learning human better than Ben Browder. Furthermore his interaction with Claudia Black in Farscape was truly excellent! Though that chemistry unfortunately didn't find its way into Stargate! I'm sad that both Farscape and Stargate SG-1 are over. I hope Browder will get a new show, where he can prove once more his talents! And i especially hope that it will be Scifi!
9.7/10
I first discovered Ben on a TV movie called "Secrets" many years ago. He was much younger and had a supporting role. I thought to myself, what a wonderful and talented (good looking) actor. He had everything you could possibly want as a leading actor. I thought, he would definately eventually get a starring role on a show. After that I forgot about him... Many years past, and I was into my favorite show, "Farscape". It was about the second or third season, when I was flicking the TV and saw the movie "Secrets" was on. I thought to myself, what ever happened to that wonderful, gorgeous actor I saw years ago? To my surprise, it was none other than "my" Ben. I was so proud.
What more can you want? He's talented (I can believe any character he portrays is really him), funny (he has such a wonderful sense of humor, I can laugh for hours), witty (his personal remarks when he is being interviewed and the way he portrays a role), handsome (oh, yes he is manly, those features, those bedroom eyes, those lips!!), sexy (what a body! His biceps, that well formed chest!).
I hope when Stargate is over he gets another show fast (hopeful in a scifi show!). Scifi is where is does his BEST work). (He likes scifi too!). I will miss not seing him every week in my bedroom. I NEED my Ben fix! When god made Ben, he broke the mold, 'cause no one should look THAT good!
