    Hi deepspace! (waves) You're not alone. I'm just catching up on all the overnight posts.(overnight for me, that is)

    Here's another question and answer from Joe M.

    We read over the weekend an interview from Amanda Tapping in a French magazine http://www.theamandatappingclub.net/telestar.jpg she was asked about Sam and Jack's relationship.

    TS: Before Richard's departure, will the fans finally have a clear view of the love story between Jack and Samantha?

    AT:However, waiting for Richard to come for one or two episodes, Samantha says to who wants to hear, that she is not single... for you to judge!

    So my question is: Are Jack and Sam together as a couple in S9?

    Thanks!


    Joe’s answer:
    Hmmm. Maybe Amanda knows more than we do. Seriously though - if you're referring to the French article I think you're referring to, that quote could be translated either of two ways.

    Looking ahead to season 9 however - I'm pleased to report that none of the stories we've done to date focus on Carter's romantic life.

      Hi guys.
      Sorry to sound so pathetic, it's just I'm used to this thread going so fast that I can't keep up!

      And sorry Sky, I'll be having to go to bed in a while, it's getting late, so I probably won't be on in a few hours.

      Interesting new Malozzi quote NC. Without meaning to be mean to the shippers, I won't at all mind if the emphasis is taken off of Sam's romantic life for a while. I never minded it, it just got a bit dominant over other story plots involving Sam.

        deepspace, I agree with you about avoiding ship for a while. It just seems to give the Sam-bashers too much ammunition.

        Now I better go get ready for work. Only a couple more weeks of summer school, thank goodness, then I can start my summer vacation.

          thanks for your time.
          Yup. Check out Beach Head.
          Should be interesting...

            Gee, my rep machine just told me that I've given out too much rep in the last 24 hours. I've never gotten that message before.
            Am I wrong or does it get harder and harder to give out rep to people as you gain rep? On many occasions I've been told that I have to spread rep around before giving it to a particular person again, but I've never been locked out completely. I wonder if I will ever fully understand the way the system works?
            Well, blue jello for everyone then, cause I couldn't rep you.

                All my Jaffa left.

                No one feared me anymore.

                It really sucked.
                It wasn't a demotion, it was a re-assignment. (wink wink)

                And we all still love you!

                  that is good news to me. these boys just can't do romance well, and personally, i'd rather they not do it at all.

                  let's get back to sam being sam (trust me, shippers will project what they want to see, they're good at that )

                    i've done that a few times. i don't know the numbers but you are limited to how many reps you can give out, and how many different people you have to give them to

                    the limits did change recently when the other stuff with the reps changed

                    i get locked out quite frequently from the green jello fridge

                      Yep, because with or without Jack there... all S/J shippers (even the ones walking the fence and the closet ones) know that Sam and Jack are together, so we don't need to have it as the focus of an episode. (Ok, well I don't need it as the focus).

                      JM never said there wouldn't be any romance for Sam in season 9, he just said it wouldn't be the focus of any episode. *wink wink* Which is really good because without RDA around, an entire episode with Sam chatting with Jack on the phone would get pretty tiresome even for those of us that enjoy a bit of ship here and there.

                        Yeah...thinking about it, I'm not sure why they even went down that road with Pete in the first place. I'm pretty sure that after the 'reproductive organs' line, Amanda did a deal with the writers saying that 'You just write a scientist + soldier - I'll provide the female.'. And so they threw in Chimera...where the Sam part of the plot had no relation to scifi whatsoever...why exactly?

                          other then giving DdL a job????

                          Just kidding, i'm not bashing the guy really

                          chimera, to me, was the meshing of two half baked ideas, breaking the black widow curse (and since they couldn't use jack, had to create a new character) and dealing with the osiris/sarah issue

                          unfortunately, to me, they gave emphasis to the wrong one. I'm sad that sarah has pretty much dropped of the radar. she could have been a fascinating chance to explore ex-hosts and all they go through. or how about her and sam? everytime sam has seen sarah, sarah has tried to kill her. gotta be some bad blood there.

                          or how about the sgc trying to get intelligence from sarah. osiris had to have known a lot

                          the whole thing was such a wasted opportunity for something more than 'sam gets laid' (although, poor girl, it HAD been 7 years or more)

                            I agree,I didn't even like Pete....Really I straight up HATED him from the whole "Box of wine,-something with a duck on the front" line. I think they should have touched more on the fact that sarah/osiris was getting into dannys mind.I just think the should have kicked the Chimera Idea out the window ,while it was still on paper.

                                Thank goodness. Sam's character took such a hit on the "get a life" story line. Couldn't they have found another way to get Sam and Jack together. Why did they have to make Sam look bad in the process. Jack came out smelling like a rose.
