Originally posted by ChillinTheMostActually, a bumbling detective sounds like great fun. From the little I know about Amanda, I think she would relish a part like that. She seems to have a wonderful silly streak. Also, after playing the highly competent Sam Carter for so long, a silly role would be fun!
I guess my big dream/wish for AT is that she finally gets to play a strong female lead in a really well-written movie and that Canada's hidden treasure gets noticed by the larger world. Let's face it, the world of Stargate is just one tiny cosmic dot in the huge universe of mass entertainment! We have been entertained by AT as Sam Carter for nine happy years but this commitment to a TV franchise may have cost her in the long run.
I know she would love to return one day to her first love and what she studied and trained for: acting and directing in the theatre. At GABIT, she teasingly revealed that a psychic predicted her living in England one day! I'd fly to London to see Amanda in a show!
May she prosper and be well!

Actually Abby Lord will be starring 2 Canadian actresses Amanda and Maria Del Mar. Most of us in Canada do know our Canadian actors/actresses.
I think the more movies they make in Canada the more chance Amanda has in getting a starring role. (Of course taking into account her schedule with SG1)

Spoiler:
One other thing: In the scene that y'all are talking about where Mitchell stands up real close to Sam and she seems to jump back, I think they both stood up at the same time and didn't expect to find themselves that close to each other. I think it surprised both of them, didn't they both jump back a little? Amanda/Sam more, but I think Ben/Mitchell also reacted in a way that showed he was a little surprised that they ended up so close to each other. Anyway, he was supposed to stage-whisper to her, so he was aiming for close, but maybe not that close. Amanda/Sam, for her part, maybe was emphasizing her reaction because they were close and Sam didn't realize that Mitchell wanted to whisper something to her. Did that make sense? I think it was a combination of both of them standing at the same time and being surprised that their individual paths brought them so close together and the fact that Mitchell was trying to get close to whisper.
that was basically my interpretation as well.[/QUOTE]
i wonder. maybe she was used to the fact taht the dude she used to sit next to always exited his chair from the right, and here am is doing it on the left and 'oops' little moment there

^^^ Kinda sounds like seasons 9 and 10 of SG-1 to me. Thor, ya got Aspirin?
AGateFan has officially Gone Fishin (with Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c) and is hoping Atlantis does not take that same hairpin turn.

Originally posted by ChopinGalYes, it will be a nice change of pace, even if she plays second banana to a female lead. Leading lady would be the icing on the cake though ...

Well she did turn down two other offers in order to do the 10th season of Stargate and enjoy the first year of motherhood, so who knows what the future holds for this talented actress/director. I wonder which she enjoyed more directing a TV show or directing theater? (Darn why couldn't I think of that question when I had a chance to ask via the open forum)Last edited by ann_sgcfan; 26 January 2006, 03:22 PM.

Why is it that most of the time when Sam is wearing leather, Jack's no where to be found.

Originally posted by ann_sgcfanActually, I think the center picture (where Sam is holding the pool stick) is where Sam, Jack, and Daniel suddenly had a protein craving during the arm band incident ... and we all know how that lead up to a few confessions.

Originally posted by ann_sgcfanThe confession was two shows later (Divide and Conquer) after they are suspected of being Za'tarc's (sp?) Jack confesses to caring more than he is supposed to about Carter. I just meant that the armbands lead to the confession not really that particular show ... sorry about that.
