    It is possible to make a show appeal to more than one demographic group. It's amazing how good writing contributes to that result. (More Amanda wouldn't hurt either.)
    I agree with you on the day to day quality of the show, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Hammer was responsible for some of the changes made in season 9 that I really dislike. I think some of those decisions were forced on the B@B from up above. Nothing concrete that I can point at; just a hunch on my part. It would be interesting to get the scoop on what really happened some day.

      Gateworld is just so massive that I've always been a little shy from joining. I come from the small universe at amandatapping.com. The reason I joined today was because so many of you stumbled onto my blog (Jedi Lois) - still trying to work out the information transportation method LoL - about my AT2 weekend. You were all so nice! Usually it's only my friends who get to read my blog, and sadly they are not gaters. So it was a massive surprise to open my email this morning and there were like 8 replies! Thanks! Anyhoo, I'm here now. Still trying to figure out where everything goes, but managed a user name which is step one. Not very original I know LoL, although I used my tea raffle number at the end so that I'll always remember. Well glad to be here, and hope to make some new friends! I'll try to jump on the bad wagon and see what everyone's been talking about!
      Welcome to Samanda gategirl422...and I read your blog last night...that was great...I'm so glad that you and all the Samandans here had a great time...I was hoping to go to AT3 but it's not looking so good for me at this time...it would cost me around $5000 AUD...and that's a lot when you're trying to save for a deposit on a house...

      But it's Amanda FCOL...I gotta get there...does anyone think there'll be an AT4...I would definitely be there for that!!

      Whoever made that a "style" needs to be (figuratively) drawn and quartered.
      IMO.
      Suse
      Are you kidding?? I think that look is gorgeous...and of course Amanda pulls it off just perfectly!!

I don't know about the rest of you, but I actually like this idea. Way scarier and more believable than the Ori, if you ask me.

      she's lucky, not only is she good looking, but she will always look younger than her years.
      i think rick too looked far younger than his 59 (?) years at the con
      Funny...I was saying that to Nik a few days ago...all the pics from AT3 and Avalon...she looks awesome...so damn young...yeah...I'd say she looked like she only just hit 30...or maybe 28/29! As for Rick...I really thing he needs a hair cut...sorry...but I much preferred the short clean military style hair cut but he's still such a gorgeous hunk'o man!!

      She truly does. I was laughing when she teased herself via the music video footage at AT2 "Oh look, there I'm young, then I'm old, young again, now I'm old...", because she absolutely does not look old, by any stretch. But I suppose we're all hyper critical of our own personal appearance.
      Dang...wish I could see that...bet it was funny!!

      I am appalled. Not only is it disrespectful as other have pointed out to Amanda and the G4, it is also disrespectful to the rest f the fans who happily observe the rules.
      In addition It is ungrateful. The G4 have worked hard to put together an event which is enjoyable and fun for both Amanda and the attendees. They requested the minimal of restrictions and placed a great deal of trust in us to behave in a respectful manner - which I think on the whole nearly all of us did.
      I agree that they need to be shopped - and don't feel bad TJ - I'm right behind you!!
      As am I...great post Coley!

      *runs and hides from J/S shippers *
      Oooooh....well...what can one say to that...but look...she's still smiling...maybe she likes to "arm wrestle" with Jack...a little rough play is good for the soul...isn't it?...ok...slinking back to the gutter!

      Night night...take care, be safe and be happy!

                            S/J is the one true SHIP IMHO, Though I do like fic ship between S/Jt, J/D. The only one I can't do is S/D ship LOL.
                            S/J ship rules forever!!

                              Thanks to all those who have posted pics and reports!

                              OT: I showed some really good clips of French and Saunders in my last day of class yesterday---they do parody so well (one was a commentary on body image). I can see why Amanda likes them so much!

                                I also had to jump in, given that my PC is broken and so can only get online at work at the mo.

                                There are just so many of us who live and re-live vicariously through the images we take at any convention. Imagine if that priveledge was taken away! Utterly devastating.

                                I definitely support your decision to notify Gabit, and it seems like everyone else here does too. Good job!
