Sam Carter didn't make the the make the list of Sci-Fi TV's Top Action Heroines but Helen Magnus did.

If you think it belongs in the Sanctuary section too let me know.

Others on the list include Dana Scully, Xena, Jo Lupo, Myka Bering and Diana Prince/Wonder Woman.

^ how is it that someone from pretty much every major sci fi show there is made the list but sam didnt

[Skydiver]

probably because Sam hasn't been on an active show for a while

[Mandysg1]

I think it's more to do that they had Amanda's Helen character, mentioning Sam in this write up and in Teyla's write up. They probably didn't want to mention one actress twice...but that's just my guess

[chrono trigger]

im not happy with that list i mean as much as i like teyla when you consider she spent most of her time on atlantis being wallpaper how on earth did she beat sam? also buffy should of been on the list imo but i was happy to see susan ivanova from babylon 5 on the list because she is one of the best female characters ever.

[hedwig]

probably because Sam hasn't been on an active show for a while

Given that a minimum of 13 of those named are not on active shows anymore and haven't been for a while (some in a very long while), I can't agree with this. At least two of those named were on shows that haven't been active in more than 20 years. Sam is very recent, and so is Teyla. Only about 4 or 5 of those named are on currently active shows. I have no problem with AT being mentioned twice. They could have put her in as "Sam Carter and Helen Magnus", as one entry.

^ ^ Agreed Hedwig.


Oh, this is kind of random, but I think it's funny. You know those cookie cooling racks? I've been using one as a platform for my laptop. Much quieter (and cheaper) than a laptop fan. And the laptop just does not get hot.
