[Southern Red]

Oooh, yes! And both Dad and brother Dave blamed John for it, even if he wasn't found at fault. That's deliciously angsty.



*bows in worship* Actions speak louder than words. Absolutely!

And not just the writers...

Spoiler:

could JoeF and Torri have known and been deliberately playing it that way, but publicly denying it (or at least playing coy) whenever they were asked, to deflect attention and keep fans guessing... Hmmm. Food for thought.

It was definitely not the writers, except maybe CB and

Spoiler:

I know Joe and Torri both said they talked about ways to play a scene together. I doubt they always played it flirty but it wouldn't make sense if they didn't sometimes. Like the desk sitting scenes and a few others. I think they just enjoyed working together and it showed. Otherwise he wouldn't have said on more than one occasion that he missed her and encouraged the fans to go on that blog and say they wanted her back. Obviously he wanted her back too. He clicks really well with most all the others, but it hasn't been the same. I think JF and RP have great chemistry, but that extra, dare I say, spark is just missing. And I love the way Joe calls RP his "hot new leading lady", meaning he lost the old one. LOL

Exactly.

Spoiler:

It had to be a conscious decision on their part to play things a certain way, at least when the script really lent itself to being played that way. It's all about the chemistry between actors; they had it, they knew they had it, and they both did what any good actor would do, which was to use it to add that extra "oomph" to their performances.

Hah! I (and everyone else in the room) got such a kick out of JF tossing out that "hot new leading lady" line at Comic-Con. What a hoot!

Haha, I like the old and new one reference. And the old one was probably a better one, right? Hehe. Nothing like the real thing. And he did a balcony scene (at least one) with both of them.

I can't brinf myself to truly dislike Woolsey or Robert Picardo, but he will never be the same as Elizabeth no matter how many "cool" moments he gets. Plus Elizabeth always looked hotter in uniform.

There are people who say, repeatedly, that JF was misquoted when Elizabeth fans refer on his comments about Torri. Well, he must have been misquoted many times, by too many people then. I'm not one of those people who wants to know and read everything the actors said or did, but Joe's support for Torri was something really exceptional.

[Anuna]

Oh, I forgot - I watched Mamma Mia last night. I kept re casting Sparky into the roles of Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan, and kept laughing. Actually I could recast the whole 'Gateverse into Mamma Mia easily. Crazyness!

Very nice!

The only contribution to Sparky day is another wallpaper/sig set

Sig:



What is Sparky day commemorating anyway? The ship in general? TLG? The last time I was here (before my 18 months in the abyss) the general consensus was not to have a Sparky day.

The people who are "misquoting" JF must have had a mass hallucination. In different locations, at different times. LOL

*snickers*



ROTFLMAO!



And no doubt, most if not all of those people are Weir/Torri-haters. So it's not like we can take anything they say seriously, right?

Let's analyze that:

1. You spread the Weir hatred across multiple threads, working it into topics where it doesn't even belong over more than a year.

2. You read positive comments about Torri from her co-star that directly contradicts your idea that his character hates her character.

3. You express disbelief in said comments and say he was misquoted.

Yeah, sounds about right.

Oh, and let's not forget. 4. You will now claim mean people are persecuting you and they are the delusional ones. Ooookkkaaayyy.

And now:

#1 They have the matching eyes.
#2 They are completely original.
#3 They're always watching over each other.
#4 They'll have beautiful children.
#5 They finish each other's thoughts.
#6 They care about each other.

I gave my two humble cents there. http://forum.gateworld.net/showpost....&postcount=310 I think it's good for sparky to get some attention.
