Congrats on post 6000 jckfan!
Originally posted by Skydiver View Postyou know, i think it's a little of both
Spoiler:when amanda joined the show, she was just a green actor. few guest bits, sure, but nothing really outstanding.
she gets the role and, in my opinion, rides out the next few years under rick's wing. And put your dirty minds away, what i mean is....rick is a professional and accomplished actor and, i feel, very willing to mentor others. he's willing to teach and learn and let others hone their skills under his tutledge.
I think season 6 was a turning point for amanda. rick stepped back - due to his injury and due to just getting tired - adn she stepped forward. she learned that she COULD be the lead of the show, if not in the credits, in the simple fact of being.
she's grown up and matured and is less of 'part of the pack' and more 'leader of the pack'
I think she had a rough patch during s9. she was tired and overwhelmed and a bit off course during a very turbulent and emotional year. but i think the whole outroar over 'we don't know what to do with sam' helped her. cause it made her realize that she's not just a pretty face. she's not just some extra 'baggage' that was in the way. she was an important part of the show. and i think that helped her out and - maybe - even gave her the encouragement to do sanctuary and step forward to take control of her life and career. to be less of a participant and more of a leader
I think, now, she's in a good place in her life. she knows that she isn't being 'demanda' when she stands up for herself. she's just being a professional and is doing what is necessary for her life and her career
i think, colonel sam carter, is a bit more like amanda herself. she's taking charge and isn't afraid to stand up, nor is she afraid to make the tough decisions. i think - like my opinion of rick - she will stand behind anyone that supports and is straight with her...but stab her in the back and it's all over.

Hi Everyone,
First, I need to apologise, I was meant to come on first thing today and remind everybody this is the last day people can add names to the list for the star, I am really sorry life has been a pain in the mik'ta today
Originally posted by hisg1fans View PostI've been thinking about this for a couple of months and am still trying to get my head around it.
Character Samantha Carter has made a steady progression of improved leadership/command ability as Actor Amanda Tapping has emerged as a leading actor in her field and became an executive producer.
Which way do you think the influence flowed the most? Did the maturing character of Sam rising through the ranks, influence Amanda more? Or did Amanda maturing and broadening her horizons influence Sam more?
- Both equally?
- Some more one way than the other?
- No connection?
P.S. I hope this makes sense, if not, just kindly ignore me and go to the next post

The verbose one strikes again…
What can I say—Sam is a great character and BAMSR just showed it again.
She's got brains & guts to spare. She's a scientist, she's a soldier, she's a leader.
And Amanda Tapping is wonderful too—she's funny, charming and beautiful (to quote Corso). And by beautiful I mean on the inside as well as the outside.
Raise a glass to Sam and Amanda (the Tappinator) Tapping to whom we owe this convergence of funny, charming and beautiful people that is Samanda!
Congrats jckfan

so when does anyone think they're going to announce if amanda's in s5 of atlantis? i'm *really* tired of waiting to find out...
jewel talked about having to get back in shape (for those grey uniforms) for starting up filming again, so it sounds like 'she's' in it... I NEED TO KNOW!

Hi Everyone,
Hope you all had a lovely holiday season. I have been on vacation and am just getting ready to start back to school for the Spring term.
Anyways, I found this interview while surfing the net and I don't think anyone has posted a link to it here yet. If someone has, just feel free to ignore it. It's from the December 2nd blog on the SciFi Channel site. It's a nice little interview.
"Queen of Sci Fi"
Spoiler for interview:
Spoiler:Can you imagine Amanda helping to catch 200 pounds of fish?
