I didn't know the Geminis were such a big deal as you described here. The thought hadn't even crossed my mind that she would cancel AT4 for this. But I don't think she would ... I mean .. we are pretty special But, even happier now for all the noms Sanctuary received!
I don't mean to cause concern. I'm not saying she would cancel, just that I would understand if she did.
Thanks to Pengyn, SamJackShipLover and Mala for the sig.

LOL Suse and I were already pestering her on IM last night. She'll tape it and then I convince her to record it using her camera and send the file to me so I can upload so we can see it.
Yes, Eh-T knows Mandy But you do realize we're slowly bringing Mandy into the modern era .

Nobody has a tv card in their computer? Luddites. Geesh.
If we want to get technical, I might ask if you have a PC Tuner which would make it easy peasy to save and upload for everyone who might not be able to watch live later. Gotta love the gadgets!

"The silhouette statues, awarded in 99 categories, will be awarded over three nights in two cities: A pair of industry nights in Toronto Oct. 19 and 20 will be followed Nov. 14 with a gala presentation for major awards in Calgary, to be broadcast on Global and Showcase."
I'm assuming Amanda's nomination for lead actress is a major award? Hopefully something to celebrate at AT4???Originally posted by Skydiver View Posther role will be a 'major role' award
now the sfx one might be given out in toronto, but actor/director etc ones are the glamorous televised ones
Originally posted by Chelle DB View PostOK...if the Geminis are in October then she will be here in Oz when that happens...or is her part the one in November??? I'm confused with how they do the Geminis.
Either way I hope we can celebrate...I'd love to see her pick up a Gemini for Sanctuary...more validation....YAY!!!!
Oh bugger...I'll be on the plane when the October winners are announced...bugger!!
Ok...bad thought entered my sad little mind...Amanda wouldn't cancel AT4 to be at the Geminis would she??? We could throw a better reception/party for her than the Gemini folks and she can pick up her award later...and we can give her something to substitute it...yes...we can do this...ok...going to bed...frazzled head is what I got!
Originally posted by Skydiver View Postamanda's part of the awards will be nov 14
if it's laid out like the oscars, about 80 of the 99 awards will be given out in october, and they'll be the costume design, cgi, special effects, etc awards. all the behind the scenes stuff
then on nov 14 will be the glitzy and glamour awards, best actor, best show, etc
most of sancutary's noms are in the nov 14 categories.
and i don't see her cancelling at4 for the sake of an awards show. there's too much money etc involved
Originally posted by EH-T View PostThe Geminis are the Canadian equivalent of the Emmys so this is a very big deal (at least to us ). I have often lamented the fact that Stargate did not get the recognition it deserved from the Canadian TV industry so it is wonderful to see Sanctuary getting that recognition.
Sky is right that it will be the technical awards that will be presented in Toronto and the "major" awards will be televised. That will definitely include lead actress. What unfortunate timing that it is the same weekend as AT4. I repeat, this is a very big deal in our industry and it is wonderful that AT's talent has been recognised by her peers. Very unfortunate that she would miss this and I wouldn't blame her if she rescheduled AT4. Even if she didn't win, just to be there while your name was read out as one of the nominees would be special. On the other hand, people do sometimes accept via satellite. How cool would it be to have her accepting the award from AT4? Although probably not as special for her as actually being there.
I like already said to Chelle, if she went to AT4 and won, it'd be amazing for her to celebrate her win with her fans, I'd imagine the party would awesome, and things may get a little crazy with all the cocktails around . I know it wouldn't be as special as being at the ceremony, but it'd be special for her fans to celebrate her huge achievement with Amanda. What do you think?

Originally posted by Skydiver View Postthe only way i'd see her canceling is if scifi said 'you gotta be there'
Heck, actors have missed the oscars due to other commitments
As for the rescheduling talk, I've read on Samanda that AT1 was postponed twice, but that was for a real reason, Amanda was pregnant.

it's a VCR *hugs my vcr, which will record the gemini's*
at least EH-T understands me
*If people aren't nice to us luddites...the tape may disappear*
Anyway, rather or not Amanda goes *prays she will* I'll still record it, because they'll still be mention of her either, and that's something I really want on tape.

watching it would be tough
first, canadian tv doesn't air in the uk
second, lessee, vancouver is about 9 hours behind london, so when the awards are handed out what i'm guessing to be evening on the 14th, it'll be early am on the 15th in London
so the answer would be known sunday morning, probably if someone in canada e-mails it to someone in London, London will know it Sun am

Let me ask this question, who would rather Amanda go to the award ceremony than AT4? Wait, let me rephrase that, who wouldn't mind if AT4 was postponed a little bit so Amanda could go? Then everyone who made the arrangements to go, would go.

Originally posted by EH-T View PostSorry for the late response but I've been off sick. I'm definitely in for the tour which I now see is the London tour (fine with me).Changed the list.

I think it would be awesome for her to accept the award at the Gabit event...I just hope and pray she doesn't cancel out on AT4.

I have one and I only wish I could work it so I can tape Charlies Angels when I'm at work on the weekend. I only just discovered that it was on tv last Sunday...used to be my fave tv show ever...til Stargate."Live Peace - Speak Kindness - Dwell in Possibility"
Hug Your Loved Ones!!
