Completely agree with you here. The only episodes I can think of where S/J ship is the storyline are Threads and half of D&C. Take out the ship and you still have a fantastic sci-fi show where the team really care about each other. The ship is the icing on the cake (and very yummy too ). BW I think it was said that to keep viewers tuned in they have to care about the characters. In order for us to care about Sg-1, they have to care about each other. We get that in spades practically every episode. The team even cares about everyone else! Prime example, Fifth Man.
My point is ..... uh let me think for minute cos I've forgotten in my ramblings ...
Resolving the S/J ship would not in any way have detrimentally affected the success of the show or the storylines. This is sci-fi not sitcom or soap. Showing Sam and Jack in a strong relationship just adds to that level of caring that makes us care more.
However, as to when they could have resolved the ship, I think the earliest moment was at the end of S8, and to give tptb some credit, they did have a go at that. I was ecstatic when the scene started playing and I realised they were
Spoiler:
fishing! At Jack's Cabin! Alone! (till D & T turned up anyway )
The regs have stood in the way for the rest of the time, and as I understood them from when they were posted the other day, there is no way around them - relationships in the same team are specifically prohibited. Besides, I've loved the angst
Now S&J are not in the same team. They are not in the same Command - although if you want to go excessively in depth into the chain thing, Jack as head of HWS is everybody's CIC.
OMGoodness! Just look at that! HWS! Doesn't even need the M does it Jack being in Washington could be a good thing afterall if that's what's happening
Got distracted there for a moment
Anyway, back to the point. I think there was a point. Ummm.....
S10 gives us the first real opportunity to get Sam & Jack together. Tptb couldn't realistically do it in S9 cos of RDA's absence despite our valiant efforts to come up with telephone calls and little asides. I really want to see it happen, not just hear about it after the fact!
So all in all, I really want Jack's appearances in S10 to give us something concrete, and then build on that in the movie. (If it ever happens and doesn't end up being the S11 finale and then tptb another 3 years to come up with another plot )
I could ramble about this for hours but I think I've gone on long enough. Hope I didn't put you all to sleep.
I like that - Jack in charge of HWS - we don't need no stinking monkey

There's a clip in one of Caty's vids - dang it, I can't remember which one where she's included a clip of a hand brushing Sam's hair off her face while she's lying down in the back of a cargo ship after getting rescued from ... something ...
Course we all assumed it was Jack and that we'd missed a very important shipper moment! After intense speculation and questioning of Caty, turned out it was Jacob's hand
Still, in my shippy world it was Jack's
(((Hello shippers))) Heard the good news last week and it's great ..I can see everyone is happy about it ..Sorry that I can't be around too much ...RL ,very very busy right now

Sam: Arriving tomorrow 09:00 hours? Lunch? Sweet! Meet me in my lab. **blushing** Me, too!!
Daniel: So, Sam, you've been smiling all day. Um, cracked the ZPM code?
Sam: I'm sorry, Daniel, I was distracted. What did you say?
Daniel: Ah, this is the second time I repeated this. You, OK?
Sam: Oh, yeah, better than OK. Um, I've gotta work on the ZPM code. See ya later.
Waterfall,
The song you're looking for is called 'Enjoy the Silence' by Depeche Mode. You should be able to find the words with this.
Oh...and by the way, I'm a big DM fan.

THANK YOU!!!!
BTW, I found it!!!
Here are the lyrics to"Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode, my #1 shippy song for Sam/Jack...it really reminds me of the "Heroes" hug...
Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand
Oh my little girl
All i ever wanted
All i ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
All i ever wanted
All i ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Caty! *hugs* You're here! You need to come here more often!
You have a new vid in the works? Great! I love your vids!
Hi guys I just thought I'd pop in to wish the shipper family a happy Easter and Passover!
SIde note: I was just reading about that fabulous auction item of lunch with Rick and Amanda; what an amazing thing to win! The person who wins that must have to have nerves of steel. I think I'd hyperventilate and collapse in a jelly-like heap on the floor with those two in a room with me! I was bad enough when I met Amanda on her own, I could hardly speak (I vaguely remember sqeaking something like 'it's really great to meet you' before almost passing out!) Is it wrong to find someone who's ten years older than your parents so thunkable? (RDA of course, Amanda's not as old as my parents but she is an amazing person) Also I think I'd be having an argument in my head the whole time trying to get round the whole 'it's Sam and Jack/No it isn't they're JUST actors' thing. Ah yes, the random ramblings of a ship-obessed, stressed out sixth former. Ignore me, I'll go away in a minute.
So, yeah, happy holidays everyone and I hope you all have a fab long weekend if you live in the UK (I don't know how the holidays work elsewhere around the world but iwhether you're working or not have a great weekend!)
Sam and Jack... Still the best romance on TV in years!
