        "We don't know what to do with Sam Carter" ... completely believable after seeing these past two weeks of eppies. Handwriting on the wall?! I hope not, Dani. But your spoiler above and concerns about Sam's current "role" at SGC has me just as worried. Sure, we got some more revelations about Mitchell ... but there is still something not clicking for me. And homing in on the new characters may be sacrificing the integrity of the old!
        Spoiler:
        Yes, it was good to see the team be supportive of their new teammate but, once again, Sam is reduced to a glorified babysitter, taking care of "the little boys" in her life! She is so much more than that!

        You know, I'm beginning to think that we could substitute any character in the line: "We don't know what to do with.....". The writers have not had an easy time knowing what to do with Mitchell (is he a one-liner kind of guy? Is he a religious kind of guy? Is he a hero? Is he supposed to be the sole leader, the co-leader?). Teal'c has only had one storyline in 12 episodes (nicely culminating in 4th Horseman Part II, but still--not real exciting--what should they do with Teal'c now that he will follow SG-1 around next season?). What should we do with Daniel? Well he can be Vala's caregiver and the one who reforms her?

        So, now when I think about this line, and after seeing the writing this season, I really have to wonder---do they know what to do with any of the characters anymore?

        And maybe most appropriate is, "We don't know what to do with the team." and "We don't know what to do with the stargate." no problem, no problem, not to worry, we'll figure it out.


        Spoiler:
        I actually liked the episode ok last night because I was just relieved that the team cared about Mitchell, unlike in Babylon. I think BB did a good job with what he was given. I could easily harp on a number of mistakes Mitchell made on this off-world adventure, but I did care what happened to him. Sam was definitely a babysitter in this one too, but it bothered me less than 4th Horseman because I like Sam and Mitchell's friendship, and so it made sense that she would be there for him. I hope they explore a bit more of their background history together. So, now I'm hoping that Sam is featured more in upcoming episodes, and we get to see her science and military side kick in. I like her caring side, and now let's roll with some good ole fashioned technobabble and some kickbutt Carter!

                By not shippy do you mean a gen-fic or an anti-ship fic? Because I'm a real snob when it comes to post-THREADS fics. I will not read anything Sam/Jack set post THREADS that does not at least acknowledge that the two of them decided they needed to explore their unresolved romantic feelings for one another. To me, that is untarnishable canon.

                    And I also agree with the 'successful, intelligent single woman' part...
                    Funny, this is what popped into my head the moment I saw that picture...

                      I liked this a lot, mainly because the story really expresses the way that I thought Sam would feel after Threads, but also because it takes place in my neck of the woods. In case you're wondering, they really do have a lot of buffalo in Custer State Park, and the Black Hills are beautiful, in my biased opinion.

                        By 'not shippy', I mean anti Sam/Jack ship. However its definitely not AntiSam (like I would even read a fic like that...). So the shippers might not be all that thrilled about it (Uber wasnt )

                        However it is a wonderfully written fic, with great Sam Characterisation and I'd reccomend it as a Sam Fic alone, which happens to have the Sam/Jack issue in it

                          Ah. Thanks for the clarification, AD. I think I'll give this one a skip.

                          At this point (for me) the Sam/Jack issue (in the positive sense) has become what I feel to be an integeral part of Carter's evolving character (and O'Neill's as well) - their romantic feelings for eachother, as it were. So for me, a fic that debunks that evolution, even if it's positive to Carter overall, would still be OOC for Sam. Ergo, not my cup of tea.

                          But hey, each his own!

                          Cheers,

                              Hm. That's interesting. He's done some great work previously. But CD ... the directing and the editing of this episode were terrible. I wonder what happened. Looked like a really rush job.

                                Yeah I thought the same thing last night - either a rush job and/or one they were short on money for and having trouble meeting budget so they cut some corners.
