yeah, it got a bit short there in s4 i wonder if at times she was disappointed having to cut it especially if she had just gotten it to a length she was happy with...
She could even wear the super short do in S6 and look great.

Someone could ask about it and they could explain it by saying Sam lost a bet or she had to dye it for some alien ritual or something. A bit fan fic-y, but I could cope.

I'm sure that if Amanda really wanted to grow her hair longer they would have been able to accommodate it somehow. I just reckon that it was easier for Amanda to keep it shorter given what she had to do to portray Sam.
I did hear though that the Air Force adviser did advise that Sam's hair had to be short...that the longer style was not acceptable. So maybe it was a bit of both reasons.

When AoT came out....I was shocked to see Sam with longer hair......aspecially with so many episodes over the years having Sam talk about her hair being "Military"......what made her grow it now........?¿
I've always seen Sam as a "to the book" officer.....so her growing her hair....just seemed so out of character......!¡Originally posted by Skydiver View Postthe only reason for the wig in EATG was because her hair was dark for sanctuary and she couldn't get it stripped light then go back to dark without pretty much destroying her hair
here's hoping they allow sam to not be blonde
Hopefully now that she's done Sanctuary, she can be real blonde for the movie, but it depends on the schedule the Stargate movies and the show, I'm hoping enough time will go by for her hair to go back to blonde just enough for her to pull it off, it's probably already going back to blonde now that the season is over.

Um, hugs? I'm fairly sure.
And, I agree. When one has the brains - which she definitely does - it's the se- most attractive asset one can have. At least that's what I'm attracted to the most.
Oh, and humor. But then, I'm of the school of thought that says you can't have biting wit without intelligence, so.
And our girl has it all. <3

she sure does...
and im attracted to smarts and personality first, i think who a person is is extremely important... no point if they are hot but there head is full of cobwebs i want to be able to have an intelligent convo with a person as well as the ordinary every day stuff...
i remember reading/hearing AT say in an interview that she had to have the short hair all through sg1 as the season finals always ended with a cliff hanger so her hair had to be the same length coming into the new season... and then with sga there had been that break so she was able to grow her hair without it messing up continuity and also she thought it established her as in command sga sam...

Have fun, and take lots of pics .
Originally posted by RealmOfX View PostActually in the US Air Force the only time a woman can have her hair loose and longer than her collar is when she has permission to grow out her hair and is in the awful in between stage, not short but not long enough to pull back neatly. When you put your hair up in a bun or ponytail there must be no loose edges sticking out.
Sam's hair in later SGA eps was not regulation, not because it was long but because of the loose edges. I think if it is a ponytail then it must also be above the bottom of the back of the collar but I can't clearly remember the rules at the moment.

The DVD for Season 1 of Sanctuary sounds great. Can't wait.
Thanks to parsifal for the heads up.[*]FROM THE PRESS RELEASE
*This September, E1 Entertainment proudly brings to DVD one of television’s most talked about and groundbreaking new series. Blazing an innovative trail, the hit Syfy original series Sanctuary features awe-inspiring virtual sets and visual effects as it follows Dr. Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping) on her quest to study and protect the extraordinary and legendary creatures that secretly live among us. On September 15, prepare to believe in the unbelievable as SANCTUARY: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON debuts on DVD in a deluxe, 4-disc set featuring all 13 exhilarating Season One episodes plus over two hours of bonus features for only $44.98 SRP.
*“With cutting-edge technology, Sanctuary creates a world teeming with mermaids, dinosaurs and monster mayhem”
*TV Guide
*Presented in 16×9 anamorphic widescreen with 5.1 Surround Sound and optional English and Spanish subtitles, SANCTUARY: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON also includes an arsenal of exclusive extras including: audio commentaries on all 13 episodes with cast and crew including Amanda Tapping, creator Damian Kindler, director Martin Wood and more; three making-of featurettes (”Welcome to the Sanctuary,” “Sanctuary Residents” and “Sanctuary Visual Effects”); the original Sanctuary webisodes (which provided the inspiration for the television series); a bloopers reel; behind-the-scenes photo gallery and an exclusive sneak peek at Season Two, which premieres on Syfy Friday, October 9 at 10/9 Central.
*Sanctuary follows the adventures of the beautiful, enigmatic and always surprising Dr. Helen Magnus, her new recruit, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Will Zimmerman and her fearless daughter Ashley. Together they track down, study and protect the strange and often terrifying creatures that secretly populate our world. Although dismissed as monstrous figments of our imaginations and the stuff of our nightmares, Magnus recognizes that the world is full of nature’s mistakes and triumphs. And she has the spectacular proof that they are indeed real. For some ‘abnormals’, Magnus is their protector. For a dangerous few, she is their captor.
*Sanctuary stars Amanda Tapping as Dr. Helen Magnus (Stargate SG-1), Robin Dunne as Dr. Will Zimmerman (Dawson’s Creek), Emilie Ullerup as Ashley (jPod), Christopher Heyerdahl as the sinister John Druitt (Stargate Atlantis) and Ryan Robbins as Henry Foss (Battlestar Galactica).
*Braving new worlds in each episode is just the start for Sanctuary. The series is also proudly credited for pioneering new techniques and technology in television production. Recently nominated for a 2009 Primetime Emmy® for Outstanding Special Visual Effects, Sanctuary is one of the only series to shoot extensively on green screen. The series was also the first in North America to shoot with the new RED camera a digital system that captures images at four times the resolution of a high definition camera, resulting in a look that is unmatched on television.
Now that is what I call a great review, especially the bolded parts, which was almost the whole review . And bonus points for calling Helen/Amanda beautiful .Last edited by Rocky89; 26 August 2009, 05:39 PM.

But you know they have still yet to set a date for production for the next movie...I'm putting my money on 2010 to start filming.
Re: the Sanctuary dvd's...apparently, according to my order through Amazon, we're getting it on the 9th of September. Yay!!
