I've heard nothing but positive things about her. If I have a girl, I'll definitely have her watch SG-1 (when she's old enough, lol). Sam's character was about being practical and getting the job done, and we need more of that. :)

A-MEN. It's sad that we have so few examples of female characters like Sam to show our daughters.

... and our sons, too. More examples of intelligent, capable female characters who aren't overly sexualized or violent, who aren't loners, who are valued members of a team and not competing with everyone in sight.

I’ve been watching Stargate slowly for the first time and I’ve been really impressed with how they’ve written Carter so far! Maybe the only time I’ve seen where there was a weird thing with her (that I’m not sure they would have done if she were male)is when O’Neill is replaced by a teen version of him and she takes over a briefing he’s supposed to lead. The pilots are supposed to be disappointed it’s not him for the comic reveal of “O’Neill” getting into trouble with security when he decides he still wants to lead the briefing. But it lightly came off as the pilots disbelieving her credentials or take her word on what was going on over a teen boy they don’t know (as he’s able to convince the room in about 30 seconds flat that he’s O’Neill by the way he talks).

Sam is great. A friend who teaches girls ballet was looking for examples of female fictional characters who have a strong presence because she was going to do a class exercise relating to female role models in fiction. I mentioned Sam and then I said "although be warned, some of her story does involve her being caught up in feelings for a man" and then I correct myself.

Because sure, she has feelings for her superior. But he has feelings for her too. And the fact he respects her and the importance of her career is why he never truly acts on them until they're removed from one another's chain of command. I feel like that's worth stating because it's just so easy for the character in the position of power to just ignore what it means for their subordinate and act on their feelings regardless. But Sam is one of the smartest people at Stargate Command and the fact her career was never placed in jeopardy for anyone else means a lot to me.

Hard same, on all points.
