    Sore throat
    Spoiler:
    I thrive on DayQuil. It's probably a cold - ibuprofen will lower your temp and help with the swelling in the throat. But I just go with the dayquil (or knock off brand because it works just as well and is way cheaper) - it has the decongestant added in.

    More natural remedy would be a cup of hot tea with lemon. A hot toddy will cure what ails you too LOL

I'm not entirely clear if such rules exist, but regardless, I'm really disappointed, too. I think AT mentioned that she would love to have him on the show, perhaps as a past love interest. Wish I could source both interviews... they may have come from RDA's website.

      OK, this really is my last post for the night. Shippy dreams, everyone
      Is Stargate not a Canadian production as well? They're based out of Vancouver. Not saying you're not right. Just clarifying

        That hot toddy idea sounds good except I'm not 21....yet and it reminds of what Rick/Jack said in the return part 2. My birthday is in october as long as a certain lieutenant general. But I'll do the tea thing. Thanks.

          I was thinking the same thing. RDA was in Stargate. Stargate was a Canadian production. I'm confused as to why he could be in Stargate, but not Sanctuary. Other Canadian productions seem to bring in non-Canadian actors all the time. Certainly Robert Carlyle is not Canadian. Apparently David Blue isn't either. There were certainly a lot of guest stars on SG1 that were not Canadian. Joe Flanagan is American (born in Los Angeles), yet he was the star of SGA (filmed in Vancouver, of course). Don Davis was born in Missouri. Rhona Mitra (Kiva) was born in England. If that federal regulation (whether it be B.C. or U.S. federal regulations) thingy is accurate, all these people got around it to work on the various Stargate projects, so I don't see why RDA can't do it again.

            It was call Minute Pass. The only reason I remember that is I video captured one of the commercials. I think there were 2 or 3 different versions.

              I love creating FanArt, and just finished my first Stargate SG-1 pieces. They are just experiments, so I will wait to share till I have some cool stuff.

              Thanks for the welcome, yessika.
              Oh no you don't. You can't say you made some artwork and not show them. Pretty please.

                Hi everyone! I tried to catch up on all the posts here, but I only got to page 23 and then gave up! I have free time, but not that much. LOL. Anyway, this is like my dream thread. I was a HUGE Sam/Jack shipper when I was watching SG-1. Hadn't seen it for a very long time, but suddenly felt this urge to see it, so I put the first season on my Netflix queue and was again obsessed with this ship. All my favorite shipper scenes came back to my mind and then I found this forum. Love you guys. Hopefully I can get out of "Probie" status and personalize my signature!
                Welcome! You only need about 20 post to get out of the Probie status, but there is a bug that nobody can access a profile, so you don't really miss much right now.

                I only remember the one where he did MacGyver for a Credit Card.

                  That is really helpful. I was feeling like an outsider because I couldn't do anything! I understand the Probie stage, because spammers are annoying, but not even being allowed to see my own profile . . . didn't get that. So, a bug explains that! Thanks for the info!

                    I think Stargate is actually a US/Canadian Production, whereas Sactuary seems to be just an Canadian production.
                    But hey - can't they give RDA political asylum for just a couple of episodes??

                    If it would be in my power I would give him the Austrian citizenship right away.
                    We sent Schwarzenegger over to the US - give us RDA!!!

                      My guess is that the bit about it being a Canadian production and "foreign actor status" was probably meant as a joke, considering--exactly as people have pointed out--it's exactly the same situation as Stargate. RDA has a rather dry sense of humor, at times. Like his tweet a few days ago where he said to AT that "all is forgiven." A joke, I'm sure.

                      Personally, and I know I'm the minority, I really wouldn't want RDA on Sanctuary. For me, I wouldn't be able to get past that "look! it's RDA/Jack!" novelty and see his character as anyone else but. My least favorite ep in S2 was the one with Michael Shanks, one reason being because every time I saw him I giggled and thought "Daniel...with a Jaffa pouch...."

                      Yeah. I'm strange that way. I know.

                      Besides. If I see angsty Jack eyes, I want them directed at Sam. Not Helen.

                        LOL! I totally agree! If someone is going to look at Helen with "angsty eyes" I want it to be Druitt!

                            Just think of it as encouragement to post more! To talk endlessly about S/J. To post artwork. To write fic.

                            WELCOME!

                            I didn't like MS in Sanctuary either but I chalked it up to the episode not being the greatest and I feel like MS isn't exactly a "high caliber" sort of actor (not that he's a *bad* actor, but he's sort of got a "type" that he does well with, y'know? It's my own opinion and by no means a way to knock him or people who like him!). RDA and AT have such great chemistry that I wouldn't mind seeing a scene where Helen comes across an old, fleeting lover as he's dying. Dye his hair or pull a Star Trek and just add ridges! LOL

                            As long as they didn't *act* like S/J, I wouldn't see S/J. Just a thought

                            Druitt definitely has enough angsty eyes for Helen.

                            And so I stay on topic...

                            Who doesn't love RDA's boyish grin?
