Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[Agent_Dark]

There's a clause in Amanda's contract saying no motorcylce riding (because they can't manage without her for half a season with broken bones)

Amanda's contract. You'd find similiar ones in all of the cast member's contracts

[Agent_Dark]

And all the Aussies here, have a great Australia Day Think I might go watch the cricket

I thought that's what they meant, but because they said Sam, I got confused. I suppose when RDA did his knee in that time, they decided something had to be done.

Slightly confused here....

There's a clause in Sam's military contract saying no motorcycle riding (other wise she wouldn't get her hazard bonus etc)

or

There's a clause in Amanda's contract saying no motorcylce riding (because they can't manage without her for half a season with broken bones)

My guess would be b) since there was that scene on Space Race when she came to the SGC wearing her leather motorcycle outfit and carrying her helmet

Another good point. It is hinted at that she rides her bikes, not just plays with them (hmmm... sexual innuendo not intended) throughout the series.

Look what I just found:

“Abby Lord” TV Movie starring Joe Lando, Maria Del Mar & Amanda Tapping
Lifetime Network /Brainstorm Media
Executive Producer: Meyer Shwarzstein, Robert Mickelson
Producer: Scott Kennedy
Director: Matt Hastings
Production Executive: Trisha Robinson
Production date: September - December 2005

Not that I didn't believe Amanda when she said she was part of the movie, but it's nice to finally see her name officially listed. Wonder when we will hear more about it, though.

Sorry, AD was correct. It's in Amanda's contract. I apologize for the goof... I actually realized how it sounded, but before I could fix it, my daughter had an emergency involving her laptop that couldn't wait.

She mentioned it in the chat the other day. That she'd just finished filming it.

It's ok. Has the emergency been sorted?

OMG! Toooo funny. My French tutor sent me an email. I'm currently applying for teacher training, and I asked him to be my referee. He sent the following response.


Yes, of course, no problem for a reference, though I would have expected you
to be going for an MA in Applied Sci-Fi Studies, with a dissertation on
intercultural communication in Stargate.

He knows me too well.

Hello everybody I wanted to share a vid I made with you. I finished it in Nov or Dec last year, but due to circumstances outside of my control it didn't get hosted until last week. But I didn't forget my promise to share it with you all, (even though you've all probably long forgotten) I'd like to thank everyone who offered suggestions when I asked for Sam/Gate scenes. I actually didn't end up using any of them due to some changes I made and I think the vids the better for it. But I do thank you most sincerely for coming to my aid when I asked

The vid is Sam/Dad. The song is the very beautiful 'Quizas' by Enrique Iglesias, and you can find the vid here http://www.stargate-intel.net/member.../samjacob.html

And here is a link to the english translation I used to make the vid (My spanish is, I'm afraid, quite pathetic) Just follow the link and go to 'Quizas' http://www.enriqueiglesias.org.uk/1lounge2_quizas.htm

I hope you enjoy this tribute and reviews are always welcome. Thanks

I don't know if anyone tried to view the vid -ya'll are far too prolific for me to read each post- but if you did and it didn't work, here's an updated linkhttp://s35.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1...I0T7GFQJXJPSSP

Yes, somehow she managed to change the screen settings for her laptop and the characters in the movie she was watching( Madagascar ) became so big that all she could see were their eyes. I still have no clue what she did to change the settings like that, but we managed to fix it. Luckily for me, she fell asleep soon after.

We need an AU with Time Travel where SG-1 ends up in the B5 universe. That way we can see the two best women of Scifi in the same place and they can show the boys what true cool is.

Did I say two. Forgot Delenn...3...oh wait and Na'toth...4....
Plus I bet Mitchell and Garabali would get along pretty well.
I think they would need to bring Walter through the gate with them though so he can hang out with Vir and Lenier. Daniel and Teal'c can defend Loki in court... there was a B5 ep where an asgard was getting sued for abducting some guys grandfather. I suspect it was Loki, though they never say...well they dont call them asgards either, but we all know the truth.

oh well.... did i mention Carter is a great character *bump*.

[Qasim]

I know the prodigy one. I think that's one of the most famous ones in Gatedom. Didn't pick up on the scratch, though.

If we're looking for goofs, though, I suggest...

PDL, Qasim and Sky.

They always seem like goofs to me

*cough*

Nice work Myrth

Amanda's contract. You'd find similiar ones in all of the cast member's contracts

it's quite common to have things like that in contracts. they'll list things like the actor can't change his/her appearance with out approval (no hair cuts until you're done with an episode), can't do risky things like skydiving, surfing, motorcycle riding, etc. they can be prohibited from gaining too much weight, losing too much weight and for the females, getting pregnant.
