oh, and time for my reminder....vote for the best sam eps of s7.
as of now, i have two, yes two votes. so if you have a choice, pm/e-mail it to me
thanks for the reminder, sky.
i usually make my decision and send it to you pronto, but season 7's choices were just too hard for me. there were just too many eps that, while not 'sam' eps, had some awesome sam stuff in them. some that stuck out at me were --
space race
grace
death knell
heroes 1
heroes 2
lost city 1
lost city 2
but giving it a day or two and suddenly having this come back the forefront, i'm having no second thoughts picking 'grace'. i'll send my vote to you now via email.
I'm having a Sam Carter appreciation morning. And I'm shamelessly OK with that. LOL
(snip)
SAM CARTER IS THE BEST DAMN FEMALE CHARACTER ON TELEVISION TODAY.
In my books at least, that is no small basket of potatoes to lay claim to.

i've had my 'sam/amanda appreciation days' too, and aren't they wonderful!?
sam/amanda grabbed my attention from the get-go, and became my fave character by the third ep. and all that's changed is the amount of feelings behind it.

i picked death knell. personal sam; her interactions with jacob at the start and the end, and with jack at the end. soldier sam; pretty much the entire thing. tough sam; again, the entire show. scientist sam; the start. scientist sam mixed with soldier sam; kicking super soldier butt with a modified UAV.
and lots of other sams mixed in. mmmm stealthy sam, mmmm.
grace was definitely on the short list though, along with avenger 2.0 and space race which i know a lot of people hate, but i loved, and heroes.
Sure! Under pen names, of course. They wanted to explore their creativity, but they still had future opportunities to worry about. For those who don't know, She Spies was EASILY an Emmy Award-winning show about three female spies and their adventures. Think "Murder She Wrote" meets MTV, and you've got it.
But you're still cast as the token "oddball" brunette stargate barbie, if that makes any difference. At least work would be fun, because you'd get two really cool people as castmates.
The "oddball" brunette Stargate Barbie? Is that anything like Kate Jackson's (Sabrina Duncan) role on Charlie's Angels?
wow. thread's moving fast. (or are we just talking about Jack/Kawalsky and my crazy p/at thing?)

I realize that after they had a more "obvious" scene, someone [PDL?] said that that wasn't what he had intended and they rerecorded that scene, but by then I thought the other scenes had been recorded and had been left in because there wasn't any obvious romantic connection in them. I thought the other scenes were so vague that they decided not to reshoot them. This is just what I thought, though, I have no idea if that is what happened. I probably thought this because there does seem to be a level of "familiarity" between BlackMitchell and BlackSam that normally isn't quite that obvious.
yeah, that's what i read happened. not that i actually agree, but would you like to speculate on why BlackMitchell and BlackSam were closer than ours? get more insight on our guys relationship.

Yes, I agree, spoilers do mean something, but they are only spoiling a few scenes, not the entire season. And I, too, would love to see a lot of team interaction, but I would add a Mitchell into your scenerios: Sam interacting with everyone and Mitchell interacting with everyone. Just my personal bias.
you're right, they do just spoil a few scenes, and its up to us to speculate on how well that represents the season. for me, based on past exprience...ah well.
i would love mitchell interaction, would really help me except (ok, tolerate) his character. just didn't list it because this is a sam thread, and i felt dangerously OT as it was. you know what i REALLY want from sam&mitchell though? she needs to knock him down a few (ten) pegs. then they can start to develop thier platrelationship.

And my apologies, but what does "samp" mean? I guess the first part is "sam", but, "p"?
DEM got it!!! yay! oh god...:shudder: :headdesk: OUT, DEM! out of my head! right now! you're not SUPPOSED to get it. you're supposed to be hopelessly lost and ignore me!

And I alternate from being with Chillin and being with PR on the side of the "forced" friendship. Pragmatically, I think making Sam and Cam the bestest of buds, but not really explaining it, was their bizarre way of trying to make nice with the Sam fans out there. As a result, I sometimes wonder if their buddy-buddy stuff isn't a tad bit on the forced side. But that's only if I think to much about it.
yes, well i tend to do that a lot. (no, really) probably why i can't stand it. they seem to have slight (or big honkin) problems with most groups this season.

On the other hand, I'd like to see some legitimately cool Sam and Cam (hehe) friendship scenes, just for the sake of our sanity. They had a chance to make some conflict between characters, but they took the easy road. But I can handle the easy road of Sam-n-Camdom (<--really read that word wrong), if they just do it well and consistently.
so who can't tell what word i like in that?
of course there was hot, burning passion between Jack and Kalwalsky! spazzy, come on!
I'm just going to sit back, relax and keep refreshing the page to watch Kat's sig rotations go by....They are awesome and "The windows to the soul" is so mesmerizing
True. I'm sure the gossip mill was already going, and that would only feed fuel to the fire. Calling each other by their rank, surname, etc. helps them stay professional. I think if they called each other by their given names, it would sort of break down the wall they've so carefully constructed. Like why Sam(in my opinion) never agreed to go fishing. She knew if she did, something might happen between them. They already walk a fine line with the teasing and flirting. Calling each other Sam and Jack would only help make that line less distinct. Not that I would mind hearing them call each other by their first names...
Jack did call her Sam a few times in the early seasons--such as when she was waiting for CAssie to blow up. But I agree that somewhere along the way, probably to keep that professional wall up, he stopped doing it. Even in Divide and Conquer he says something like "I'd rather die than lose Carter"--not Sam.

So am I. I love Kat's sigs. They're so much fun. I just got the Bob the Builder (or should that be Sam the Soldier) one, which made me smile. Has Kallesta been inspiring you again, Kat?
