Love the days of Christmas! Funny!
As for the discussion on what AT wears. Sometimes I don't like it, but I can't see I've seen something really horrible. I think it's also what you like for a style so.
I already cringe at some of the things I wore myself a few years ago! Will probably do the same again in a few years.sigpic

I have yet to see anything that makes AT look *horrible*. Some things may be less than flattering (but let's face it... The nineties left a lot of people confused). And tucked in shirts is a pet peeve of mine on certain people... But even the date night dress was pretty.
Besides... for first dozen times I watched the episode, all I could see was the smile!
And while it's true that Amanda is gorgeous regardless of what she's wearing, I still wasn't a fan of the date night ensemble.
But really, I'm biased against the episode anyway-maybe I'm looking for more things to dislikesigpic

I didn't like the date night ensemble. I really didn't get the hair--why did they bother trying to make it look like she had long hair? It looked to me like someone who started getting ready too early and just didn't know when to stop. She just kept "doing" until the doorbell rang. Having been that girl once or twice in my life, I can commiserate!
That particular outfit (to me) just made her look like she was trying too hard. Maybe that was the point, though--that she (Sam) had to force things in order to make the date happen. **shrug**
All I know is that she would never have to try that hard with Jack. He's seen her in all manners of dress/dirt/illness, and he still loves her.

I'm obviously in the minority here, but I quite liked Sam's outfit in 2010 - but then I have no fashion sense at all and would be quite happy to never dress in anything other than jeans (not hipsters) and a fleece!The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it

Originally posted by hedwig View PostI blame the writers. They somehow found something to blackmail her with, and they made her do it. She was framed, I tell you. She didn't want to, but they made her do it!!! She's completely innocent!

Originally posted by Kunoichi View PostBut in a way it could be argued that the whole Pete thing was Sam trying for something that was the stereotypical movie romance. The 'sweet' guy, her ignoring the stalker angle, the dressing up for the date, the perfect house etc. However, in reality none of those things are really Sam. The reason her and Jack are perfect for each other is not because they tick all the stereotypical romance boxes, but because they are perfectly in tune with each other. They have something much deeper than the surface 'love' interest. They have chemistry and understanding and so don't need all the surface trappings that films and TV try to convince us are indicative of a perfect relationship.
Jack wasn't just a "safe bet". He was her only bet, because regardless of what she may have tried to convince herself, she didn't want anyone else. Pete COULD have been not creepy, he could have been great, but it still wouldn't have worked.sigpic

Sam's life takes a turn in an unexpected direction when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy. The decision to keep the baby and raise it on her own will alter her life forever. Relationships are put to the test, especially the one between her and Jack. She doesn't know what to expect from him and he surprises her at every turn.

And I think AT's idea was more of a one off. She dates a guy, he doesn't die; she moves on (back to Jack). Giving her a jerk of a boyfriend like and have Carter actually agree to marry him was just really bad writing and hurt her character. But for me it also demonstrates how little the PTB cared for Sam's character in later years. She was seriously tossed overboard toward the end of the series.sigpic

Didn't I read somewhere that even AT was surprised Sam accepted the proposal?
Sam certainly deserved a lot better than that stalking, good for nothing cop. Plus he really lacked in the looks department; they just didn't fit together. I would have even taken Joe Faxon over Pete (for a fling, not the 2010 experience).Unmade Plans (WIP: 11/20):

And yet more proof of the love of Sam and Jack:
I'm continuing my watch through. I'm watching Death Knell now and I'm right at the end, after Jack saves Sam. And then snuggles her. Right there. On the battlefield.
He knows she's dating a professional stalker. He doesn't care. She needs him and he loves her and that's all that matters to him.
Ok and now I'm all teary because Jacob just told Sam he can't come back for awhile. Sheesh. This show.sigpic
