My personaly favorite artillery shot (which I do not have, sadly) is the one of Sam with a S.A.M. - I laughed out loud the first time I saw that episode, I think I even said, hey look, Sam's got a S.A.M.! Pathetic, I know, but humor chose that moment to strike and I was powerless against it.

There is also the simple fact that maybe, becuase she missed 5 episodes and said that she wanted a reduced schedule that amanda simply didn't want to be the show lead. Maybe, to her, being mom is more important than having her name first.
She's obviously ok with it or if she wasn't then she'd turn in her notice.
i respect her and her choices.
i have absolutely NO ire toward ben; it's the ptb that i am shaking my head at. (and have been so much this season that i'm getting a permanent crick)
the opening credits were skewed.

Has anyone considered how we'll celebrate our first 1000th page?
Sounds like a party!
I'll sleep on it, perchance to think of something cool, crazy, nice, etc. for the Kingdom of Samanda's milestone.

*sam thinking* 'i just need to overlap the wires in circuit 3 then i can peel away the second junction but i need to insert a into b at the right moment so i can insert the green wire into the red slot but not too soon or c can't fit into the blue knobby thingie--'
daniel - "what are you doing, sam?"
sam - "just trying to fix my vcr that keeps blinking 12 am."
daniel - "have you tried programming it?"
sam - "uh... i forgot how."

Originally posted by sg-1fanintnWarning: Generally mild-mannered Samandan about to have a rant
I gotta jump in with a little dissent here! Okay.....a whole lotta dissent!
As someone who has spent more than 20 years in broadcasting, I strongly disagree with the contention of several of my favorite Samandans that we, the viewers/listerners, whatever, have no right to expect producers, directors, networks, etc., to program to please us.
Folks, let me tell you, pleasing the viewers is what it's all about! It's the premise on which show business is based! Where do you think ratings come from? From satisfied viewers. Everyone is after satisfied viewers, because they're the ones who keep tuning in, week after week. You do have a right to want certain things from your shows, and to let TPTB, no matter what the show is, know about it! Otherwise, you get what they think you want! And what if they get it wrong.....or listen to someone else because you didn't speak up?
Show business isn't about art. It's about business. Every business must please its customers. Why do you think they set up focus groups? To find out what people like. Here's the equation.
Good program + Satisfied Viewers = Strong Ratings = Rich Producers
If you don't let them know what you want, you get what they give you. Unless you feel entitled enough to let TV execs know what you like, you run the risk of letting them decide (and they may not even care about your characters). I guess the best way I know to sum it up is this:
It's just like voting. If you don't vote, you get the government you deserve (for not voting). You get someone else's government. If you don't participate in the process, you really have no justification to complain.
But if you vote, if you take part in the process, if you make sure your viewpoint is heard and counted, you stand a better chance of getting the kind of government that represents you. And if you express yourself, you get a better chance of getting the shows you want.
Ok.....love you all! But you are entitled to express what you want! And you need to believe that your opinions matter.....because they do!
All right. Down off my soapbox now. End of rant.
well said!

Originally posted by SkydiverI'm all for folks defending Sam and Amanda. And i'm all for folks not being happy with how th ings are. not being happy isn't the isssue, it's how it's expressed.
WE don't like it in those dark places where sam is torn down to pump up another actor or character. And if we don't like it then we shouldn't perpetrate it.
If you want to express your displeasure, grab a pen and let scifi or mgm know.
Can we find a way to express our discontent without ragging on others? I would never like to hear that Samanda is full of cameron haters or vala haters.
Kindness reigns here. Kindness doesn't mean that we have to turn the other cheek all the time, but it does mean that, when we do fight back, we do it with grace and dignity...kinda like SAm does
I wanted to apologize for my post earlier today, or more so for the way it might have been perceived by many of you. I am usually a mild-mannered person, but I guess, I kinda "overshot the mark".
I most certainly did not intend to offend anybody or attack anybody, and the last thing that I intended to do was to bash or attack any actors. I d not hate any of them, far from it.
Over the past weeks I have gotten very sensitive to certain issues and I guess, I stated my opinion a bit too agressive.
You are right, if we "fight back", we should do it with grace.
So, again, I apologize. Kindness does reign here. After all, that's what I admire most in Sam/Amanda.
