Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[AmberLM]

I had long blonde hair for awhile, and my hubby didn't want me to cut it until I offered to get a Sam Carter cut. Suddenly, he was all for it! I don't think I'll take him with me if I ever meet AT at a convention.

Hee, hee that might be wise. My dad didn't like Amanda at all until he met her and then he suddenly decided that she was rather nice! Honestly, I've never met anyone who has met her and not thought she was one of the loveliest people they've ever met but, man, is she tall! I'm 5' 3" in heels and she was almost bent double having a photo taken with me lol! I could praise Amanda's admirable qualities for a good few pages but I won't. Suffice it to say she's a truly amazing person and role model.

i notice her canadian on hello

in forsaken, when she looks into the crashed ship, she goes helllooooooo

Most of the time, Amanda does a very good job with her American accent because I rarely hear anything Canadian sounding, but on occassions it does slip out.

In Lost City II, when Sam and Daniel are discussing Jack's crossword puzzle answers I definitely noticed an accent on the word body.

DANIEL: Well, why else would you do that? (Sam takes the puzzle from Daniel and looks at it.)

CARTER: The clue for seven down is ‘celestial body’ and he wrote ‘Uma Thurman’.

O’NEILL (smiling): Yes!

not to be snarky, really but how is that different from the American way to say body, sounds like bod (rhymes with odd) e as in eek.

It just does. (now THAT'S snarky) *grins cheesily*

Okay...see...when she said "body"...it's like there's a slight "w" sound before the "o" and is really noticable, to me at least, and clearly to Kat too.

I also notice it when she says the word "resources"...the first "s" sounds suspiciously like a "z" (or, for you, a ZED).

Just a quick note: SCI-FI is airing a special "behind the 200th episode" at 8PM on Friday, in case anyone didn't already know. I saw it on a commerical tonight, otherwise I never would've known.

Sorry if someone posted this already.

Thanks for the reminder. I just set my TIVO to record it and noticed that SciFi is running SG-1 all day on Friday. Tok'ra I and II, Nemesis, Small Victories, Wormhole X-Treme, Prometheus, Unnatural Selection, Fallen, Homecoming, Lost City I and II. Then Eureka, the special, ep 200 and Atlantis. The normal repeats of SG-1 and Atlantis and then a repeat of the special. Seventeen hours of Stargate. Woo Hoo!

I guess I don't pay so much attention. I didn't think 'body' sounded different. There are a few words that jump out sometimes, but hardly ever. I really notice Canadian accents on SGA. Like when McKay says ZedPM, or how they say been. Not been like Ben, but been like...well, you know how they pronounce it.

Yes, that's helpful, Mandy, considering WE CAN'T HEAR YOU say 'odd'.

I was just settling down to READ *cough* when I made the mistake of checking this thread. I had to turn the equipment back on and dialup disc #49.

AT's body was weird. *snicker* The 'o' was too far back.

This week really is dragging, isn't it? And I have to wait until Saturday!! I am coming home and watching 200 before I pick up my kids. Hopefully, hubby will still be at work and I can enjoy it the first time in silence. I really hope Sam says

Spoiler:

Holy Hannah again.

That cracked me up!
