For those of you who have not already seen them, they have posted photos of the new, to be released, Sam action figure dolls on this thread Action Figure Sam
It looks as if there will be a green BDU and, desert camo version of Sam as well as Replicarter. According to what I have read there is also a black ops version of Jack, Daniel and Teal'c... so more than likely the same can be said about Sam.
It's hard to see Sam's facial expressions because of the lighting, but the ones for Teal'c look amazing.
Thanks for posting that, Kat. I hadn't seen them. It would be nice to see them closer up, though. The O'Neill one looked good until you saw the close up. I hope it's not the same with the Sam ones.
And as for the card and poem, thank you, it's amazing. I love the pic and the poem, and it's so lovely and generous of you to send it on behalf of the whole thread.
Okay we've talked about angry/irked Sam although I think we've barely touched the surface on that topic...so please continue with more examples as you think of them.
What about touchy/feely Sam? And no...I'm not talking about ship here. I'm talking about any and all Sam moments where she's hugged or been hugged or kissed or been kissed by someone. Male or female. A/U or not.
I'll start.
***WARNING...SPOILERS FOR ALL SEASONS***
She hugged Daniel when she saw he survived in The Serpent's Lair.
She kissed Jack (more like tackled him) when she was suffering from the broca disease in Broca Divide.
She hugged and kissed Joe Faxon several times in 2010...but then she was married to him so no surprise there.
She hugged and kissed Daniel, Teal'c and Janet in 2010 as well.
She hugged Janet at the end of Ripple Effect right before Janet returned to her reality.
Okay...floor's open!
...You're ALWAYS Welcome in Samanda: Amanda's Community of New Fans and Old Friends...
Haven't been able to play here much beyond the quickest of lurks the past couple days due to playing nurse to my doggie who had surgery... and missed on several b-days including strix varia & sgfanintin (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!), but.... in between nurse duty I was able to put the final touches on my 3rd fanfic! (Yay!)
Now if you're interested in some reading that's sure to make you all warm inside on this cold February day (at least it's below freezing here in the U.S. MidAtlantic states!), I offer for your reading pleasure, a little late for Valentine’s Day, but still in the month of February…. *drum roll*Chameleon!
It picks up where Choices left off. (It’s #2 of a 3-part series. #3 is still in it’s infancy, so it won’t be up for a while…) Now I know many don't like S/J ship, so I will gave fair warning on this one - it is shippy! I gave it an M (mature) rating to be safe since there is some non-explicit intimacy, a smattering of curse words, and brief violence in one passage.
Teaser: With an unexpected incident shaking up the SGC, this special op may just be a mission impossible for Sam and Jack. Spoilers for: S1’s Children of the Gods, The Broca Divide, The First Commandment, & Cold Lazarus, S2’s In the Line of Duty, S3’s Point of View, A Hundred Days, & Shades of Grey, S4 Divide and Conquer, S6’s Abyss, S7’s Chimera & Heroes Pt.2, and S8’s Affinity & Sacrifices.
Guys, that is so beyond generous and thoughtful. What a beautiful thing to do - and on behalf of the entire thread. CG - that poem is just perfect. You guys are so great!
Just want to say I think you're mistaken in where you think the majority of this thread, anyway, is focusing their ire regarding the treatment of Sam recently. I don't see most people focusing on Ben. Please don't mistake the fact that many of us think the character of Cameron Mitchell is a mess for criticism of BB.
I like Ben Browder. I was excited to see him coming onto SG1 when RDA left. (Though, in truth, I might have preferred Adam Baldwin, but that's a personal preferance.) As to the job BB's doing....I don't see too many people here, in this thread blaming Ben. Certainly, not the majority of people. I think BB's been given a whole lot of craptastic crap to work with. Maybe he could have done better with it, maybe not. But the blame whirling dervish that is Cameron Mitchell belongs the least at BB's feet.
As for your analysis of how the blame can be shared among the Sci-Fi network, and the showrunner-I agree. I add poor scripts to that mix, whoever is to blame for the current lackluster writing staff.
The problem with Sci-Fi network, as I've always seen it, is that they simply don't understand the genre. They see it as a previously untapped niche, where they can make some good money. But they don't get science fiction. Nor really, do they get science fiction fans.
Right on Deejay435! I know I've said some stuff that seriously pissed off one Ben fan, but it was just my humble opininon on his acting talent, not against the man. I think Ben is a fanfrellin'tastic man. Slowly over the past few eps, his acting has been changing my mind. Good on him!
It's funny that a network that is supposed to be promoting Science Fiction/Fantasy based shows doesn't know diddly squat about the genre.
I'm just glad they saw the error of their way and got rid of the reality show they had a while back.

I prefer to be called Sunny, Sun or SK. Thanks.
