*Looks up* I did? I did! I'll be! Replying to one of your posts to boot, mini!

[minigeek]

Thanks guys - all of ya

And on a related note, I don't have any green left either. I've been trying to green people for two days but it keeps saying I need to spread the love around - I guess I'm only greening Samandans, trouble is, I don't end up posting with anyone else! D'oh.

Aww, Sky! That's so cool! Do you think it'd be OK if mine found its way into your hot, little (generous) hands at Shore Leave?

*cough* I only ever give out green to thoughtful and insightful posts! I have to say, if I really want to green someone, I will just randomly spread the love (or hate, as the occasion calls)

well, to harp on a common topic, if the MEN that write this stuff - and do thier best to keep the entertainment indistry a boy's club - would just stop writing the cliches

what female characters are common???

the ho
the maternal figure
the sex object
the damsel in distress

there are a few shows that avoid that. Judging amy was ok for a while (but did descend into relationship silliness), Elle on Criminal Minds is good, so is Melinda Kanakaredes on CSI: NY, along with Catherine most of the time on csi.

Sam used to be really really good. she was a part of the team that just happened to be a woman. Then they got fixated on the whole relationship stuff and turned her into a cliche. 'i'm so desperate not to be alone that i'll put up with anything'...yeah, every male's fantasy. a hot woman that prefers being a doormat.

consciously or not, male writers are doing what they can to keep women from being seen as an equal to a male.

characters like sam work to break that mold. They are 'proof' that a woman is not a sum of her boyfriends.

but then, inevitably, the boys get tired of all the work that goes into keeping a female from being a cliche and they fall back into old molds.

Yes, the writers lately can't seem to help themselves with going overboard. "Let's let Sam have a love interest who doesn't die" became the notorious Pete saga. "Let's have an episode that's just 'fun romp' " became let's have the character *every week!* and not worry about developing her. "Let's get away from Sam's personal life" became let's get away from Sam entirely.
Bah humbug.

I think we need to keep the images visible for caption ones. What d'y'all think?

I don't want to upset Sky is what I think...I don't like doing bad!

G2H2? wha?

EDIT: its been brought to my attention that this was post number 44000, so i thought i should put something in here a little more substantial that a silly question. unfortunately i couldn't think of anything so instead;

caption this!

Right now, with SG1, not only do we have OTT characters, we have really bad storytelling, so there's nowhere to go but up I think (or I hope at least)

With AT valiantly bringing dignity to her bits. I really think she elevates the material.
