John Sheppard/Teyla Emmagan Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

[gater101]

May I ask a rookie question of the veteran J/T shippers?

How do you feel about TPTB, considering how they've handled this ship? And has the constant push-pull turned you off to J/T, or made you cling to it all the more, because it's best when love ultimately conquers all?

I've always been able to see the possibilities of J/T together. It just makes so much sense. But IMO, TPTB haved turned them into Ross and Rachel....putting them together, tearing them apart....gaaaah! It drives me crazy!

I had high hopes when I heard

Spoiler:

about Teyla's pregnancy. I thought "FINALLY! Teyla and John admit their feelings and hook up!"

....but the way that storyline has played out this season has left me a little

I think a lot of us thought that about Teyla's story arc this year. But... I'm drawn to them, through their angst. I love fluffy John & Teyla of season one but I can totally understand why they haven't gotten them together - yet. It's never been the right time and I believe Teyla's people will ultimately always come first for her. To start with, there was always the possibility that they would be pulled back from Atlantis to Earth once they'd reconnected, or that John would be and that is enough to put them off. Then they got into this role of friends and they didn't want to break that. And now, with this crazy curveball, I think there is a reassessment of their boundaries needed.

In S1, it's easy to see why so many people are into Shepp/Weir (and it pains me to say that!) but there is just so much more 'chemistry' between them. I think (and I know some disagree) that Weir definitely had a thing for John, at least. But then, as Joe (or someone) said, "sometimes a hug is just a hug".

Which leads to Doppelganger and that other episode, where there is OUR kind of hugs... Where I don't believe a hug is just a hug...

I like what TPTB are doing to our couple.

But that's just me.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I"m going to screammm.....oh, I'm screaming already...

I HATE SATELLITE!!!!

Hubby and I record Stargate..well, he records Flash Gordon and all those shows before SGA but in the middle of Quarantine, the stupid satellite went off, and now I"m trying to buy it in Itunes and it's not there!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Oohhh... that hurts, man, really. Don't worry, you're not missing much

Man Elfie, that was some squeeee.

Though, admittedly deserved.

[scifan]

Maybe...

Spoiler:

I think they are forming an attachment to John and the baby. When the baby ends up in peril (because, do anyone really think everything will be all peaches and cream when it's time for the baby to be born?) John will be sad, angry and everything in between. Since Teyla is off-limits, John has to show his affection to the unborn child.

And ITA, about John touching her tummy. None of my male friends or babe's friends, would put their hands on my tummy nor would I put them on their. It's a very personal thing.

That's a very good POV and I agree witht guys thing. I feel the way.

Hey J/T shippers!

Just popping in to say...

Spoiler:

that it was great to see your couple having some nice moments last night. The belly scene was sweet, as was John saying that Teyla's baby was family.

If you're overseas and haven't seen the eppy yet, I recapped it live last night in the Ronon/Keller thread. By special request of a fellow R/K shipper, I paid special attention to the J/T scenes as well.

DoodleyDog. I jus want to say thank you so much for the recap and everything on the R/K thread. You were awesome and thank hubby for being patient to let you do all that stopping.

Yes too true Sel!

Quarantine caps

It's short and hopefully not to sweet (sorry in advance for any cavities ): Campanion

Thanks Linda.

“A relationship blossoms, an engagement is planned.” = Quarantine.

Answer: The casting was a long and often arduous process. I remember that one of the first roles cast was that of Dr. Beckett. Weir followed soon after. The characters of Sheppard and Teyla proved quite a challenge for most of the actors who auditioned. It took a while, but we finally found the right people for both roles. But that was nothing compared to our attempts to find the right person to play the role of the team scientist. After countless auditions and production fast-approaching, Robert Cooper had the brilliant idea of using an established SG-1 character instead: Carter’s arrogant, annoying, yet some lovable rival, Dr. Rodney McKay. Rob gets a gold star for that one.

Thanks MrsB for update.

I personally, have loved how much has changed in Season 4 and I hope they don't do a Ross and Rachel thing, but I don't want things rushed either. I'll take all I can get.
