Production Notes
- "Brad has laid claim to #4, a story that is right up his alley." — Joseph Mallozzi (November 11, 2008).
- "Of the first ten episodes broken, we have a grand total of 0 forested planets. I’m not saying we won’t, eventually, come across one but, for the time being, the emphasis is on the ship and some locations atypical of Stargate. As a matter of fact, Executive Producer Robert Cooper and Director Andy Mikita are in New Mexico as we speak, scouting a cool-looking alien setting." — Joseph Mallozzi (December 19, 2008)
- "Brad, meanwhile, is motoring along on Fire." — Joseph Mallozzi (January 30, 2009)
- "Brad is working on Fire and, from what I hear, is very happy with the way it’s coming along. It’s a great story and, as I’ve already said, right up Brad’s alley. Looking forward to reading the first draft. This episode will see a certain fan favorite retake the director’s chair." — Joseph Mallozzi (February 12, 2009)
- "Brad reports he should have a first draft of Fire sometime next week." — Joseph Mallozzi (February 17, 2009)
- "We received a visit from a Stargate veteran who will be making a return to the franchise with Stargate Universe’s fourth episode: Fire." — Joseph Mallozzi (February 27, 2009)
- Ytimyona writes: "Would this be a *different* veteran than the guest star you chatted with like 3 days ago? Or the same one?" Answer: "This one will be working behind the camera. The other one will appear in front of it." — Joseph Mallozzi (March 1, 2009)
- "Reading "Fire"...BW sure can spin a yarn. Can't wait to start seeing cuts." — Martin Gero (March 9, 2009)
- "Brad’s script, Fire, is also out and it is pure BW: action, humor, and enough angst to trigger an anxiety attack in even the most composed of viewers. The scene about halfway through with the characters when the thing happens (sorry, I can’t be anymore specific) is a real nailbiter!" — Joseph Mallozzi (March 13, 2009)
- "Yesterday, I was over on Stage 2, watching Peter DeLuise direct the shuttle sequences in Fire. Boy, that shuttle is a beauty. Someone referred to it as “a puddle jumper on steroids”. Anyway, enjoy some shots of Peter in action." — Joseph Mallozzi (March 20, 2009)
