    Slightly OT on AT and Sam/Helen which I don't think I've shared here yet:
    Spoiler:
    About a month ago I was watching one of the ComicCon Sanctuary panel videos with AT on it and my 6 year-old daughter was on my lap watching, too. Now, you have to understand, my kids have seen a lot (I mean... A LOT...) of both Helen and Sam. About ten minutes in she suddenly said, "Hey! That's the person who play's Helen..."

    My 9 year-old son looked up at the screen. "Oh.. yeah."

    About five minutes later, my daughter said, "Mom.... Know what?... I think she's Samantha Carter, too..."

    My 9 year-old glanced up at the TV briefly, then looked at his sister in disgust. "Don't be stupid."

    rofl. Which is almost literally what I did...

      I agree, the two do look very different. It's not just the hair, it's the body-language, etc. It just speaks to AT's acting ability really.

          AT on Sanctuary

          Spoiler:
          I was really impressed when I saw AT in the first episode of Sanctuary. I remember in one interview she said she had to reinvent herself as an actress to approach this new role. I think she couldn't have done a better job!!!

            Go pick on someone your own size.

            Why you all are so obsessed with that, I'll never understand.
            : D Have you seen their chemistry?
            I guess after pointedly ignoring it for so many years, I'm immune to its charms.
            : D Pity the fool.
            I resent that.

                  That is why I don't leave my happy place here on the Thread. It's a scary world out there. People are just plain crazy. Loco. Nuts. Bonzo. Three french fries short of a happy meal. WACKO!!!!!!

                  EDIT: Yup, still feelin' a little wacko myself. Woke up dreamin' I'd won a hundred-million dollar lottery jackpot. And after I shared the good news with my Ship family that I'd be THE PTB producing Movie 3, Daniel (yes, the character, not the actor) kept following me around begging me not to kill him again. Best I could offer was to not *keep* him dead...

                      Football OT - I am the same way. If my team isn't there, not interested. I am a San Francisco 49ers fan (there is no way I am going to be a fan for those Lions) so I haven't watched very many playoffs or superbowls for the past few years.

                      I loved how Sam was so relaxed and happy (because of Jack, of course) that she wasn't embarassed that people saw her in her pink bikini.

                        I think we've been reading the same thread today And you know what? I feel exactly the same way!! Our thread is like Sanctuary And don't worry, everyone has their own opinion, but at the end of the day, we are following canon here

                          I tried that once. It was very scary. That is why I don't venture out of this thread very much. I like to have my Sam and Jack fluff and I don't want anyone to ruin it for me. Don't even try to change their opinions, it will only get messy and it isn't worth it. You know and we all know the truth. They saw it: fishing.

                          Speaking of Fishing (morning commute OT) -
                          This morning as I was taking my children to school, the radio morning show asked "85% of men don't know this about women, what is it?" to win a prize. One man called in and answered where babies come from, which wasn't the correct answer. The DJ then asked the man, do you know where they come from? The man said: daddy's fish swim to mommy's pond. My eyes opened up with excitement from that answer, because we all know that is what Jack did to Sam.

                            When I first read this, I thought that you had written something else. (condom faced)

                            That is what I get for trying to read fast. Also, I am still trapped in the gutter pool. *looks around to all the familiar faces*

                            EDIT - I forgot to mention about the Sam/Daniel shippers. Sam clearly said in Season 7's Fallen that there had never been anything between them in that way. <mod snip>

                              That's actually one of the things I love about Sam post-Threads, and she's just become more so as the show's gone on from there. She's got this general attitude of "I don't care what you think" about her that's just fantastic. (to clarify, that's what you think about *her* personally... not other people's general input)

                              Also, as for the rest of GW... I know several folks (myself included) who ended up on this thread discussing S/J - and even the show itself - almost as default mainly because it was the only place we felt we could actually discuss the show and the characters we'd seen on TV. I just *can't* discuss what happened or, even more, Sam or Jack as characters with someone without the common agreement that Sam loves Jack and vice versa. It's not the *only* aspect of the characters, but it's important enough that to try to really discuss and interpret the show in any kind of meaningful way without being able to include that is impossible for me... And anyone's interpretation which simply ignores anything and everything indicating Sam and Jack want to be or are more than simply comrades and friends, while I respect their right to an opinion, isn't something I'm going to be able to pretend to take seriously. Not when there's enough canon information to show that they're just wrong. (and yes.. I said it... because it's *true*)

                              Now, someone who doesn't want them to be more... Or who is simply a HUGE Daniel fan and so has no time for Sam and Jack is a different story... But trying to interpret, for example, Sam and the choices she made and her character's evolution from S7 to where she's at now without including her relationship with Jack... Can't do it.

                                I have noticed that about Sam in Season 9. She is so different from Season 1-8 Sam, that even though I like it, it is going to take time to adjust to it. Now, if I saw the two of them together, post Season 8, it would help. I know I will in Season 10 and Continuum, but I'm not there yet. I am just viewing Season 9 for the first time and the next episode to watch is Ripple Effect. I have heard comments on this issue, but I am going to watch and express my own opinion when I do view it.
