the one moment that, when you think of sam carter, you think of her?
*the first episode(COTG): when she enters and says who she is, ok that isn't who she is in the rest of the seasons but still... how she walks in with that confidence of her... She got the looks
*exodus: just the smart samantha. Making a plan for blowing up a son... Holly Hannah. And it works.
*Heroes: when you see her first fighting and when she knows Janet is dead you can see the pain and the greave (don't know how to write this word, sorry) she has for loosing her best friend. But you also sees how much she cares of Teal'c, Daniel and O'neill.

I just wanted to say you've all made good points in your discussion about S9/Mitchell. I absolutely agree. My best friend and I were talking about it today, and we both agreed that there needs to be a female in TPTB. That would solve a lot a problems, don't you think?
And thanks for all the birthday wishes!

It's a dangerous, irresponsible message to be sending out.

They made a conscious choice to demote Sam and to replace her with an inexperienced male hewo and they should be ashamed of themselves.
i think the answer would essentially be; *arrogant laugh* oh its not sexism, its just making the show more fun. silly women and their silly issues. it wouldn't be the first time we'd had an attitude like this from one of TPTB.
i don't think the fact that they have disrespected amanda has entered their heads. sam has never been put in a clear command position over any male military character in the field. introducing a male character onto sg1 and having sam be his commanding officer? nah, makes far more sense for the guy to be the CO. thats just how its always been. sam's a girl!
however, i'm sure some other samandans can come up with another reasonable explaination for the decision that doesn't include the word "she" or "her". i'm sure its possible to explain the choice logically without incorporating gender into the mix.
don't all speak at once now!
