Well said Darkquee

if Shippers keep watching the show ..why would TPTB modify the direction ??!!

If Shippers keep on buying the DVD's ( I'm not by the way ..no buying season 7, 8, and 9 for me I stopped at season 6 and I'm happy with that ) then why why TPTB employ new women writers to make the show more appealing on a human level?!!!

On the other end ..and this is very good .... I'm spending my money on buying DVD's for other shows like Alias and Dark angel .

Caty

Oh, I don't know Caty. I'm glad I got the Season 7 DVDs...first of all to hear the commentary for Avenger 2.0...especially for the scene in Felger's apartment which was hilarious...and then of course the LOST CITY commentary...

...when AT was pointing out at the end how she called him Jack and that that was important...

Hear, hear, Caty! I second the motion! I bet they can hear it all the way out to Vancouver!!!!!

Just to throw some cents into the pool here... I thought S5 & 6 were really light on with ship. Whereas 7 has plenty of it, ala Grace, Heros, Lost City etc.... plus the commentaries alone make it worth it. Amanda does alot of the commentaries in 7. If you're picking and choosing which DVDs to buy... 7 is always on my list

I can't wait for 8, I just gotta hear the commentaries on Threads & Moebius.. obviously... but also IGTBK & that scene in the hallway in that one with the wedding.... plus the Director's series and who knows what ship-bits will surface out of it... I'm a slave to marketing.. but I'm happy that way...

Good point gatebee.Knowing the Shippers Luck

Spoiler:

If there is a season 10 it will be like the x-files..except this time they'll do the missing character for both of them ...Jack for Season 9 and Sam for season 10 just to keep the carrot hanging in front of the shippers ..

but Do they think we are that stupid or what ???

I mean the x-files was sad without Mulder but still the romance was there and still very believable ...and he (Muder) did came back for Scully quite a lot for season 9 anyway ..So it was alright ..Chris carter and David Duchovny know they have made a bit of a mistake there but they still did quite well considering the departure of DD .To have Mulder abducted for part of his quest was a brilliant idea ..when they went wrong was when he left on his own will for his protection and his family and without Scully and the baby going with him ....

Hopefully everybody (Hear TPTB!!!) learnt that a show where there are 2 lead characters is doom without one of them ...and although Daniel and Teal'c are part of SG1 , they are not the main characters to me anyway ..so if Sam and/or Jack is missing for a year or more .....the show won't be the same for many reasons that we all know and not only ship reasons but humor, angst .....the banter with those 2 characters are extremely important .

Anyway ..Slighty fed up to talk about SG1

and I'm gonna watch some good shippy x-files Mulder and Scully episodes for a change ..that was such a treat and I miss them so much ..Please please Movie 2 hurry up so that I can go back into the x-files again

I also have marketing experience

but I still think that Stargate Tptb is extremely mean to the shippers .
When you market a product ,usually you want to please your customers ( SALE AND AFTERCARE TOO) ..and you usually know how the product is doing from a market research before putting it on the market .

Of course For a show it's different , they know it from viewing and feedback from the episode in question ..... may be from reruns ....but if all the shippers say that they will still buy the DVD's no matter what well obviously TPTB is NOT gonna give them what they want right now but will wait right up to the very end like season 10 or season 11 ..and it will be the last episode .
Now Saying that Some TPTB are kinder than others ..and some are extremely generous in ship all along the 7 or 8 or 9 or 10 years of the show ( X-files was generous compared to SG1)

Myrth I respect what your saying but commentaries mean very little to me.

I really beleive that Threads was leading up to something. To have an episode that changing right before theseason ends, to put an AU ep right after it, it's like they're planning to have something in season 8. I don't think they'd push the ship as far as they did in threads if they weren't following through. I'm not saying we'll get a complete resolution. Maybe they'll want to drag it out for a while. I mean, after 8 years a single ep resolution might seem almost TOO sudden. I think the tension between Jack and Sam makes a great plot device and I think they want to use it as much as they can. Which, as a writer, I can appreciate. But there comes a time when you're characters won't take anymore. And i think that's where sam and Jack are. I think it's time for the characters to take action

This is something I've touched on earlier about THREADS.

If TPTB wanted to squash the Sam/Jack issue, Threads would have been THE opportunity to do it.

Sam, who has finally gotten past her reservations, could have been really excited about her upcoming nuptuals with Pete. Jack could have continued to be supportive of Sam, even though he harbored feelings for her that he would never get to realize. Jacob, although not sure at first that she was going after what she really wanted, would have given her his blessing...and then with him dying, Sam would have found comfort in Pete, thereby cementing their bond. After a period of mourning, General Hammond could have walked her down the aisle.

BUT NONE OF THAT HAPPENED!

Sam NEVER got past her reservations...they only grew stronger and stronger as time passed by and she began to really believe she screwed up by accepting Pete's proposal. She avoided Pete and all things having to do with the wedding, allbeit she kept insisting that she WAS going to marry him and she DID want to be involved in the ceremony. Jack, who supported Sam on GP, could not help but unconciously reveal his feelings for Sam when she left his house, and Kerry obviously picked up on it. Jacob was wary the whole time about Pete and was not shy about voicing his concerns; plus he as much as told her to go after what she wanted, i.e. JACK, and not let regulations get in the way. As her father languished, Sam didn't go to Pete, but rather found comfort with Jack...thereby continuing to cement THEIR bond.

I'm still pulling for Hammond to eventually walk her down the aisle.

I'm thinking that'll happen at the end of Season 32.

Hi Shipper Family!
I think season 9 will give us some type of resolution to the Sam/Jack drawn out relationship. There must be some definitive answer as to whether or not they are together (which I think they are). By the way...SciFi is showing Beneath the Surface tomorrow night. Ahhh...the shippy, "I remember...feelings" moment.

Thanks Shipper Family for all the wonderful jello

((((((((((Shipper Family)))))))))

BTW Bev .... Would now be a good time to hand in my notice? Do you require me to work the full notice period, or shall I just clear the desk now?

Congratulations!!!

I so hope you're right about this. I'm just so afraid to trust TPTB anymore.
ROFL at that last line!

New Music Video Release!

All I Ask Of You
Phantom of the Opera Soundtrack

I really felt that I could do one last song since my Army Deployment was delayed due to a family emergency back in March, and I've just been struggling to find the right song until now. Well, anyway, enjoy.
