Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[Mandysg1]

Hmm? might we be seeing very short but frequent posts from DEM and PR to get their post counts up
(I hope they don't do that to this thread, my post count might be around 10)

to the best of my knowledge, the 'who should lead' was pulled for mod review. once decisions are made, if the mods feel that it's good to be put back out, it'll go back out.

if not, then it just might go away.

time will tell

If it does just go away, mission accomplished. Sam's on-going big lead in the 'who should lead' poll will disappear from view.

It ticks me off that I warned what was happening months ago to no avail. Whatever.

Not a very good scan, the paper is wafer thin but my Mother (who's in her 70's and never watched an episode of SG1 in her life) found this in her television paper and kept it for me.

No new information, no new picture but it's always nice to see your favourite show getting some press, SF on TV is notoriously under appreciated in the UK.

edit to add, okay, that won't work, too small to read, let's see what we can do to get a bigger copy.

FF (if anyone wants the original, let me know or I'll bin it, enough bits of paper in my house as it is thank you)

[ParadoxRealities]

oooh!! i want one!! i'd get it myself but i'm a yank and there's the nice big ocean in the way. i just love AT/sam in print!

[ReganX]

i can't play anymore. haven't been able to for a while. i want to heal sam (and others) but i just can't bring myself to hurt anyone who's left.
how pathetic is that.

I've been reduced to eenie meenie miney mo to decide who gets hurt - first heal vote goes to Sam, obviously.

Yeah, I've been drawing names out of a hat. I can't quite bring myself to consciously hurt any of them. Of course Sam's name isn't in the hurt hat

Anyone else find themselves thinking "Hammond wouldn't mind Sam having his points" or something along that line?

[ParadoxRealities]

i can't even bring myself to vote twice. hurt hammond and janet in the same day? :shudder: i switch off between the 2 of them. its sad that i'm even voting at all. but i feel compelled to help sam win something this season. especially with the WSL poll gone indefinitely.

Sorta. Janet often tells me that Sam gave her loads of points because she was such a gooood girl last night...

Tried again as greyscale but it's still a bad copy.

It says -
Amanda Tapping, 40, plays Captain Samantha Carter in the C4 series Stargate SG-1. Born in Essex, she now lives in Vancouver, where Stargate SG-1 is filmed.

When did you last cry?
Yesterday, I went to a convention that was organised in my honour. People said the sweetest things and I was totally overwhelmed. People travelled from all over the world to see me. It blew my mind.

When did you last laugh?
My daughter, Oliver, is seven months old and she's just started belly laughing at everything. If I run around the room with my husband, Alan, she laughs so loud and it cracks us up. I am loving being a mum.

If you could have one super power, what would it be.
I'm going to be really altruistic here. We have this device on the show which enables us to heal people, I'd love one of those.

Who would you lie to play you in a movie of your life?
Someone good looking, young and thin, like Keira Knightly! But it would also be fun to have Dawn French play me. She looks notihing like me, but it would be funny.

Do you have a fear?
Dying. Ever since I had Olivia, every serious illness terrifies me. The thought not being there for Olivia is scary.

How do you keep fit?
I work out with a trainer three times a week. I'm too lazy to do it alone. We go to a gym, but we live in British Columbia, in Canada, which is mountainous. We take our dog out, we're big walkers.

Who'd be your ideal dinner guests?
Matt Lucas and David Wallliams - I'm a huge fan of Little Britain.
For a discussion I'd have President Bush. I'd also have French and Sauders, I want people who are intelligent and funny who'd ask what Bush is doing.

Where will you be in five years time?
Producing and directing. Ive done some and I love it. I've been told by psychics I'll go back to England. I'm a fan of Gillian Anderson who made a new career for herself in Britain, so I'd like to follow.

Stargate SG-1 Season 9 Volume 2 is out on DVD frome April 24 (£19.99 Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.

PM your address and you can have the original (but it might be a couple of days until I can get to the post office again)

[ShimmeringStar]

i know!! i fell in love with it the second ShimmeringStar posted it! :melts: i swear she GLOWING! and not in the goa'uld way either! plathunk. feel free to steal.

I'm glad I could help inspire your muse. That DVD extra was nice - her expressions were just so animated! And I agree - with the lighting and the natural glow that just emanates from her - it's a wonderful shot to cap.

((((PR))))

Pretty cool that she was interviewed during (or right after) the GABIT con last year. :

Interesting the bolded piece above. Here's to hoping many an opportunity to do so will come her way in the coming years.
