I also think it's becaue Sam is so easy going and John is probably alot more like Jack then some might think. If she can handle all she went through with her team... she can handle John and Atlantis.Originally posted by bluealien View PostMe too...
I loved the John/Sam friendship and I think they both took to each other straight away because they had so much in common... I also think Sam "got" John and not many people did... I always felt that Teyla and Ronon knew John the best..... I never felt that Rodney or Elizabeth ever really knew the real John... they never really saw through the John Sheppard mask...
I know there are times John and Rodney are close, but Teyla and Ronon have a different relationship with him. Ronon is like a little brother to both John and Teyla. And John has seen Teyla and Ronon's struggles and hardships, not to mention that they are both warriors.... soldiers if you like. Something John can definately relate to.
Elizabeth was diplomatic. She had to stay neutral lots of time... or be firm with her beliefs. So, IMO, I think that's what seperated her from the rest. She kept her distance to make sure she remain the Head figure. Not because she wanted to be bossy though. I think she kept her relationship/friendships at a distance because she was the leader (Sunday said it all) and I also think because of Simon.
Oh I know.. and Joe said he'd love to see John/Teyla revisited in season six... but with the present writers who knows, and JM could do a Keller on us.. gives you less of what you want and more of what you don't want..
I am a bit weary too, but the optimistic in me keeps hoping.I'm a bit wary of anything from these guys... as much as I'd love to see the team altogether again and the actors reunited, I'm worried it will just be more of the latter half of season 5...
I'm still looking forward to the books more... anyone heard when Death Game may be out.... it was due in September..
Oh I hope they feel better soon... hugs..
I can't wait to get my copy. I won a prize from a banner contest and the prize I picked was 2 SGA books. So, I had them order Death Games and Dead End. I'm really excited.
Thanks for the update.Originally posted by Artie View PostSupposedly it shipped from the printers on Friday, so with a little luck it will be out next week! I'm certainly looking forward to my mail!

I loved that site, but I'm not sure how up-to-date they are keeping it. I know the owner used to frequent here. I signed in once but I know they got hacked or something like that a couple of times and she had to redo the whole thing all over again.Originally posted by scifan View PostDoes anyone know how to sign onto Unique Bond?

Gosh, I can't remember what her name was in here if not I'd tell you to PM her. They must have a contact info in the site, did you look? Email them.sigpicComment

[QUOTE=bluealien;11968422]
I've always loved Sam, but not in SGA. I just never felt that this was the place for her. I always thought where the heck is her relationship now with Jack while she's on the other side of the Universe or beyond. But more so than that...I thought that although John really showed his place with her, and certainly he showed it in Search and Rescue, *thank you for that quote Rockhound* I just felt that Sam took away a part of John that he only showed and that I loved to see in John/Joe to Weir and Woolsey. They really couldn't keep Atlantis led by Military. It almost took away everything that Atlantis stood for.Me too... I loved the John/Sam friendship and I think they both took to each other straight away because they had so much in common... I also think Sam "got" John and not many people did... I always felt that Teyla and Ronon knew John the best..... I never felt that Rodney or Elizabeth ever really knew the real John... they never really saw through the John Sheppard mask...
I liked Sam best when she only came to visit Atlantis. But that John held her in a high esteem...no question about it.
My fears about this have always been there. If Joe couldn't get them to do JT in Season 5, what's to say he would have been able to do it in for Season 6? Now, although I do believe that Teyla's commitment with Kanaan was for it to be forever, I do also think that if she sees or feels that it's not right, she won't stay in that relationship just for Torren. So, any slight hesitation in any direction for her, could and would end the relationship with Kanaan. But I think more than anything at this point in time, Teyla had resigned herself that John and her was never meant to be and that with Kanaan now is whom she's meant to be with. Even though I strongly believe that deep down she knows that the man she truly loves is John.Oh I know.. and Joe said he'd love to see John/Teyla revisited in season six... but with the present writers who knows, and JM could do a Keller on us.. gives you less of what you want and more of what you don't want..
Touche!I'm a bit wary of anything from these guys... as much as I'd love to see the team altogether again and the actors reunited, I'm worried it will just be more of the latter half of season 5...
Oh, sorry. I've been so busy that I've only caught up on things in Beya. This was the latest from Jo Graham about Death Game.I'm still looking forward to the books more... anyone heard when Death Game may be out.... it was due in September..

Latest on Death Game...
taken from
http://jo-graham.livejournal.com/85733.html
The latest on Death Game is that it shipped from the printers on Friday, so the first people should be getting their copies early next week! I'm pretty eager to get mine too!
Do me a favor and give a holler when you get yours, if you don't mind, and let me know how you got it -- ordered directly from the publisher, from an online bookstore, or bought in a physical shop. It'll give me an idea of how this process plays out in real time.
Meanwhile, Homecoming is going to the printers in the next few days, so it should be out in a couple of weeks. I have to admit that I'm dying for it to come out so I can talk about spoilers!
Also, Beya is hosting a Book Club for all the novels starting with Death Game and Jo Graham herself will make an appearance and answer questions about the novels. So, stay tuned!!!!sigpicComment

I loved Sam in SG1 but actually preferred her in SGA...I felt she wasnt given enough to do. But she really had what it took to be a great leader..Originally posted by Jeyla4ever View Post
I felt the opposite. As soon as the Wraith attacked I felt the leadership should have been military or someone who at least wasn't so anti military. I felt that Sam understood John a lot more due to their military background.. Elizabeth and John just never seemed on the same page when it came to defending Atlantis and this came around full circle in First Strike..But more so than that...I thought that although John really showed his place with her, and certainly he showed it in Search and Rescue, *thank you for that quote Rockhound* I just felt that Sam took away a part of John that he only showed and that I loved to see in John/Joe to Weir and Woolsey. They really couldn't keep Atlantis led by Military. It almost took away everything that Atlantis stood for.
Though I was actually dreading Woolsey and didnt think he would be up to the job because he wasn't military but he really surprised me.. he showed he was more than capable many times and very believable as a leader..
I liked her instantly..I liked Sam best when she only came to visit Atlantis. But that John held her in a high esteem...no question about it.
I never really felt any committment from Teyla for Kanaan.. there was never anything there... the writers wanted us to believe there was something there but at the same time showed us many instances where there were still feelings between JT... I'm come to the conclusion that the whole Kanaan thing was just unbelievable and so not in Teyla's character..or even in Johns.. it was just a badly handled fabrication to explain Rachels pregnancy without any real insight into Teyla character at all.. I can never see Teyla admitting to liking someone from Atlantis while seemingly at the same time having a relationship with Kanaan... So the whole fiasco was out of character for both John and Teyla imo...and I saw nothing from Teyla convincing me she was in love with Kanaan. She went to him in a time of need and yes is very fond of him and never intended to get pregnant... when that happened she settled for him because yes maybe she thought she and John would never get together.. but in time I think she'll come to the realisation that her feelings are not strong enough for Kanaan to sustain a relationship and it will end..My fears about this have always been there. If Joe couldn't get them to do JT in Season 5, what's to say he would have been able to do it in for Season 6? Now, although I do believe that Teyla's commitment with Kanaan was for it to be forever, I do also think that if she sees or feels that it's not right, she won't stay in that relationship just for Torren.
I think she already knows the relationship won't work.. did she ever look like a woman in love in season 5..So, any slight hesitation in any direction for her, could and would end the relationship with Kanaan.
I don't think she ever felt that her and John were never meant to be.. I think circumstances just altered her course in life and I think in time will make her realise more how much she loves John and not Kanaan and in time those feelings will come out.But I think more than anything at this point in time, Teyla had resigned herself that John and her was never meant to be and that with Kanaan now is whom she's meant to be with. Even though I strongly believe that deep down she knows that the man she truly loves is John.
Oh thanks for the update...oh, sorry. I've been so busy that I've only caught up on things in Beya. This was the latest from Jo Graham about Death Game.
