Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[Strix varia]

Daniel of screen: Really guys I was ascended and this is the way Oma sent me back again

O'Neill: I'm not buy it. You Carter?
Carter: Nope Teal'c
Teal'c: Perhaps Daniel Jackson wants to save the costume department more money than Vala

LOL! I can't rep you... but gosh this was funny!

Well, here is my note to Amanda for The Tome. I don't have much experience writing fan letters, but I hope this sounds okay.

Dear Amanda,

Thank you so much for bringing the character of Sam Carter to life. Sam is a wonderful role model for women of all ages (strong, competent, intelligent), and without your amazing acting talents, she would not be the inspiration that she is. Stargate SG-1 has provided me with many hours of delightful escapism, some of them during very difficult periods of my life, and for that you have my eternal gratitude and respect. Thank you for the long hours you put in on the set; thank you for working so hard to be such a great actress; thank you for treating your fans so well; and thank you for, well, being you.

Mmm, I can taste it already - thank you ever so much.

And the (real) place is called "State College". Have to admit it doesn't actually mean a whole lot to me, seeing as I'm on the other side of The Pond.

"State College" is in north central Pennsylvania and is the town that is home to the main campus of Penn State, home of the Nittany Lions. That's their football team, not any roaming predators ... although, from the weekend that you were describing, it may very well turn into a bunch of roaming predators.

Penn State is a huge system of campuses and State College is located in a very picturesque part of Pennsylvania.
I fell into a very clean gutter ... the citizens of Samanda are very tidy and civic-minded.

Excellent and eloquent or excellently eloquent or eloquently excellent ... you get the point, and you get THE RED BEAN OF ELOCUTION!

ROFL.....ok, try this one smarty pants.....hmmm, still has a few flowers.



Um, a bit too off the wallish? I think I just made up a word.

Back to the kitchen......

Great (and unusual) cakes oh Royal Baker! I dare say I got dizzy looking at this one! Looks like something Alice in Wonderland would serve at her tea party!

I second ChopinGal's comments! Nicely stated words from the heart.

Personally, I think it's perfect. It sounds like it came from your heart and I'm certain it did. Don't change a thing.

hey! joe answered my sam question!

[ChopinGal]

hey! joe answered my sam question!

Yeah, he seems to be assuring everyone that we will see Sam in action and that the necessary hype had to go to the beginning episodes for now. See? And you were worried about the tone of your post ... kudos! The O'Neillium must have been deactivated after all.

Keeping fingers and toes crossed ... for Sam!

And you made Post 9100 with the good news about Joe M answering your post!

2) The generally negative reaction to Vala's plummeting decollatage has had an effect. Last week's spot had Claudia Black in a turtleneck & she's not showing much skin in this one, either.

Is it possible that Vala was in that leather getup just for that one episode and for a specific purpose? According to spoilers in would seem that

Spoiler:

she used to be the local god

Doesn't it seem likely that the other images of Vala, fully clothed, would have been produced during the same time period - some even earlier - at any rate, before we fans got to see any of them?

BEAUTIFUL letter, although one little nit, it's Role model, not roll

Beautiful note, Strix! I've put it into the Collection (And I changed roll to role after Sky caught it )

Ugh... thank you.

[majorsal]

Thanks! It went so fast I couldn't tell if they were old or new clips. But the important thing to me is that AT was actually IN the clips. Yeah! Do you think they've heard our psychic pain? --or looked at this thread?

i know, isn't it *wonderful*!

[LadyJeep]

Well it seems I'm back on the net again, with my *own* wireless connection. Five days without the net and my husband comes home from a business trip and within two minutes he has the thing working again.

*Grumbles to self about being an idiot*

Oh and my 4yr old just told me she wants to go get her hair cut short like Carter, so I'm trying to figure out what season to go with. Any suggestions?

Kat

I liked Sam's hair in season six. That's how I had my hair cut. Now I feel glamorous AND ready to kick Goa'uld butt!
