I mean, look at all the work she's done for Sanctuary, all the news interviews, all the trips, the TCA Tour, CC in San Diego, and the Tampa Rays game. All that time, hard work and publicity she's put into the show is amazing.

    And you know what else? All the work she's done isn't for the money, fame etc, etc, it wasn't even to please herself, it was for the/her fans . Like I said on the Sam Thunk thread, [B]that's one of the best things about Amanda IMHO, she cares more about what the fans think more than anyone else. What I love about her even more is that she still feels she has prove herself to them and she still keeps her head below the clouds and never lets any of than big Hollywood fame or what not go to her head.

    Amanda Tapping: None of that "Star", "big headed", and "self-centered" attitude here.
    Wow, look at all that, look at all the promoting, all the travelling, and most importantly, all the good reviews the show's gotten. Speaking of which, check out all these other good reviews from the Sanctuary news thread:

    Sanctuary

    (Premieres Friday, Oct. 3 on SCI-FI).

    Follows the adventures of a 157-year old physician who studies monsters, in a world that feels like ours but isn’t-quite. Monster-fighting and unlocking the secrets of evolution. This series originally ran on the web before being picked up by the Sci Fi Channel. I’m hoping that the move to mainstream will simply help it pick up a bigger audience without stifling it. One of the neat things about the production was that it encouraged fan interaction, making the episodes downloadable so that they could be remixed. Also, big points for starring Amanda Tapping from Stargate.

    tv wasteland: More shows coming back this week


    by: Stephen lackey

    date: Monday, september 29, 2008

    this week finds a handful of shows returning plus one new one to check out...

    Friday features a highly anticipated debut on scifi channel of a new amanda tapping series called sanctuary. The show has been covered here before because it was one of the best shows on the interwebs when it debuted there. It’ll be interesting to see how it translates to broadcast television. The scifi channel seems to be the only network that can make science fiction/horror series work on friday nights – other than ghost whisperer – and it’s filling a slot left vacant by stargate atlantis so it has potential to succeed...

    Friday

    sanctuary (scifi, 9pm est) sanctuary for all

    no description was available for this episode at the time of this writing. This new series is a science fiction series starring amanda tapping from stargate sg-1.

    sanctuary: Where unique and innovative collide

    by chandra on october 1st, 2008

    as i’ve said in the past, i’m really looking forward to sci fi channel’s groundbreaking new series sanctuary, which stars stargate sg-1 icon amanda tapping as 157-year-old dr. Helen magnus, a brilliant scientist who specializes in the super spooky and ultra freaky. My kind of gal.

    i received a couple of brief videos to share with readers, and you can find them [at the link above]...

    sanctuary will debut with a special two-hour series premiere, “sanctuary for all,” this friday, october 3, at 9pm est. Of course, i’ll have an advance review before then, but for now, enjoy the clips.

    Clips include: Artistic imagery and behind the green screen.
    And to think, had Amanda choose Atlantis, none of that would have happened, all those things I posted, and that we talked about, never would have happened. Amanda would have never dyed her hair, she would never have gone to all those places to promote Sanctuary, she would never have done the things she's done both for the show and herself, she would have missed out on all of that. And oh, Falcon, that means you would never have met Amanda at the game.

    I'm glad Amanda choose Sanctuary, Atlantis was on it's way out, and if Amanda had stayed, she would, like she's said "killed" Sanctuary, and she'd be out of a job with the other SGA cast members. Like I've said before if she had stuck with Atlantis, not only would she have missed out on the spot light for Sanctuary, but she'd be out of a job with the rest of the SGA cast, and like she said, she would have killed a potentially great franchise, and put those people out of work too. And since Atlantis and BSG is going, Sanctuary has a better chance now more then ever. So you see, her side wins

        AMANDA LOOKS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZNGLY BEAUTIFUL, HOT AND GORGEOUS!!!!!!!

        OMG, OMG, OMG! Amanda just gets more and more gorgeous all the time!

        *looses focus and gets mesmerized by Amanda's intense beauty , faints*

        *Wakes up*

        She is without question, one of the most beautiful women on the planet! She only gets much better looking with age, any dress, and any hair color . She is a goddess, my god, these are some of the best pics I've ever seen of her. Of anything, Amanda alone makes that dress look great, Amanda brings out her own beauty. Oh man, there is no question, Amanda is absolutely gorgeous. Yeah, Amanda is all grown up, but blond, or dark, she's still are Amanda. I wish we could see Amanda this glamorous and stunning all the time. This is one lovely lady, inside and out, and that'll never change. If only Carter would wear high heel shoes as often as Amanda.

          Everyone watch The Today Show Friday morning. A friend of mine was in NY with Amanda and found out that Amanda is scheduled to do the show prior to her signing at the NBC store. I think she's in the last hour.

Oh, and I'm sure this is the same interview that is quoted, cause all the other phrases used are exactly the same, also the picture with it is from that interview. So, the person who transcripted it, got confused. Imo.

                      Sorry Rocky.

                          Gateworld is using the same wrong quote, from that interviewlink you posted. See the comments of that post on the homepage (or better, don't, cause there are some stupid comments there).

                            Okay, was she on the today show or not? That is some massive exposure! I think it would be awesome because it seems as though television in general is becoming more friendly to casting women over 40 and having Amanda seen would be great for that. She's vibrant and lovely, and has a an illuminating smile. Right there is proof that the over 35 group should not be ignored in terms of casting.

                                The Today Show is on a major network here (one of the big three) and is widely popular to turn on and watch in the morning. It covers diverse topics from the news, weather, movies, music, cooking...whatever seems to be 'hot' at the moment.

                                Still kinda keeping an eye out but I havent seen anything yet. *yawn* Hopefully soon cos I havent slept in at least 24hrs. now.

                                ETA: I spoke too soon! Just saw the little blurb with Amanda. Lovely and beautiful as usual, she explained the premise of Sanctuary and what she does (exec producer, actor) on the show. It was only about a 2min promo, but I'm pretty excited. Word is getting out about the series virtually everywhere I turn lately.
