Carter: "You, sir, are an incorrigible lunatic!"
Jack: "I assume that's a compliment, Carter?"
Sam: "If you say so, sir."
Jack: "Hey, T, I think she likes me."
Teal'c: Indeed!"
(A typical J/S exchange according to HailDorothy)

I'm not depressed....come to think of it, I'm quite happy about the future of Sam and Jack.
Everyone is depressed because not much (if anything) is being said about it.
It is TPTB's little game of trying to get the shippers to stay tuned,because they're not stupid, they know where their bread gets buttered.
IMO what they're *not* saying speaks volumes and they're using it as a trump card if the ratings hit the skids and for the power to have a 10th season.
One reader on the S/J Yahoo list believes that they are already married and that it will be sprung on us later in the season and I'm beginning to agree with her.
BTW, anyone have a guess on just how much time passed between "Mobius" and "Avalon"??
well, the weird thing about time is that it is relative. Especially to writers. They twist it to their own pleasure. In SGA, Siege part one, the marines come in compliments of General O'Neill. A very, very short time later, the Daedalus arrives with the ZPM. But over at the SGC, General Landry is in command when the Daedalus leaves Earth. So, these are the same people we are relaying on for ship? Any wonder why it hasn't happened yet? It was probably lost in the time continuum between SG1 and SGA.
Yes, another post from yours truly!!
I haven't had this much to say in quite a while!!
Everone has been saying that
Spoiler:
Jack looked tired in "Origins"
I'd like to think that Sam "used and abused" him half to death and therfore that's why he looked soooo tired!!!....that and he was hungry....muhahahaha
IMO other than no Sam and a few new characters season 9 isn't that different from season 8:
There's hardly any Jack, Daniel is still Daniel the great (cough)and Teal'c is still just scenery....at least there's no (THANK GOD!!!)

hahahahaha that's probably the best explanation we'll ever get too.
Queen Eleta.....thanks for the pics. I had seen some, but not all, of them. And they harken to a cheerier time, which lifts my spirits some.
Yes, I'm down after finishing Harry Potter today, combined with watching Origins Friday night. In between, Hubby and I took a great road trip on Saturday, though! I'm trying to get back in the positive groove. Maybe the fact that tomorrow is Stargate Monday on skiffy will help some. I've printed out Silver's new fanfic for tonight's bedtime story. From the quick glance I gave it, it may also improve my mood.
I have tried very hard to stay positive, but I'm just sick and tired of waiting for a resolution for two characters who deserve to be together. It's gone on so long now that it will be more difficult to get a satisfying resolution, because one of the actors involved has moved on.
After reading the Air Force fraternization regs, I believe them to only be an excuse now, especially in S9. Where there is a will, there is always a way. I'm just fatigued from the rollercoaster that the boys in Vancouver (TPTBM)are putting us through. And I say that the easiest way to get me to accept the "new team" is to happily resolve the S/J Ship, create a reason for Sam to still be there, and move on with the new stories. If they had done that, I would not be resisting the changes at all.
Thanks, Shipper Family, for being there to convince me that I'm not the only one interested in how this S/J thing finally is resolved. It's great to have you all to trade talk with, and feel that we'll get to a happy ending eventually.
Welcome to all the newbies we picked up on Ship Day, and to the folks who have just returned to the thread!
I'm not going to let season nine or a lack of resolution scare me away from fandom or from reruns of seasons 1 - 7...
Another thing - I've been thinking about something...
Remember the Neverending story films? (note this is a silly point from a slightly tipsy shipper)...they said in those films that anything you can imagine is real. So just think of those possible millions of fanfics!
Okay...that was an inarticulate babble...I apologise...If anyone could make heads or tails of it, please post your version of it!
sigpic Part 2 coming very soon!! (this is a fic btw, not the Fandemonium novel)
Sam: Jack, our shipper family wants us to return back from our honeymoon
Jack: FCOL, can't they give us a break!
Sam: Well they say they won't watch S9
Jack: Then how are we supposed to suprise them, didn't they get the motorcycle hint
Sam: Well yes they did, but you know how much they love us
Rogue I remember the Good Days when I could not wait to see episodes like Solitudes and Point of View and 100 Days.When I heard about 100 Days I could not wait to see that episode.It was tough working on the Day and I could not stop looking at my Watch all Day.The last Time I had that feeling was Threads and to me it was a letdown.I told myself before Season 9 that I would not like the Show the same way I liked the Show from Season 1-6 and it has helped a little.It also helps having AT still around and it gives me somone to root for on the Show.I still think we have not seen the last of the Sam and Jack Ship.AT latest commnets have helped.I'am just trying to tell myself there is nothing we can do about the Past and I'am trying to stay positive about the Future of the Sam and Jack Ship.I have great confidence in RDA and AT.
Ses, I have confidence in RDA and AT, but have zero confidence in TPTB. Thats who has the power now that RDA is not a major player in Stargate.I am tired of living off the bread crumbs that they decided to throw us from time to time. I also anxiously waited for Threads and was very disappointed. They promised us resolution and all we got was more questions.
I am waiting for AT to come back, which I am hoping the ratings will skyrocket with her return. But her latest comments don't give me much hope. How is that different from what we have been doing for the past 8 years?
Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.

Love the spoiler waterfall. Haven't seen any season 9 but from evertything that has been said here it sounds like a very valid reason. (hehehehehe)

Again, I thought Jack looked fine. He just wasn't given anything to say!!!!! But if he was tired, I certainly like your explanation for it!!!!!

Okay, waterfall, I need a lift. I'll bite. On what evidence or presumption does the reader on the yahoo list think they're already married? Cheer me up, please!
