The great thing about the fandom of a show as great as this one is the fact that you and I and others can watch the same episodes and have completely different reactions to certain elements, come on this board and rant and rave about whatever aspect we feel passionate about and still come out of the discussion as both friends and loyal fans of the show.
I think my feelings regarding Pete are tempered because I was scared with Grace and Chimera that they were moving away from Sam/Jack and were pushing for Sam to go on with her life and find love with another man. But even after Chimera and Affinity I still loved the show, but it just kinda dimmed my passion for the series a little.
And then they gave us Threads...and I came to the belief that Grace, Chimera and Affinity were just bumps in the long Sam/Jack road. Their journey is a long one...just like Harm and Mac's was...and I still believe that TPTB can get it right, otherwise, why bother with Threads?
Really?
What would have been the point of Threads if they intend to drop the topic entirely? That makes no sense whatsoever to me as a writer and a fan. If they were going to abandon the emotions between them, then Threads would have been the time to do it...with Sam being giddy about getting married and Jack cracking jokes about wearing his formal uniform to the event.
But instead, Sam continued to question the rash decisions she made and realized that marrying Pete would have been a huge mistake.
Score one for the shippers.
