Ok guys, I just don't get it. Amanda Tapping? Seriously? After all I've heard: Go ahead, tear me up - but I just don't see it.

And McKay is way smarter.

I can see why they hired her in the first place - obvious Scully look-alike in hopes to get fanboy attention - but the woman has not aged well at all.

Brunette would make her way hotter, but then she'd be dangerously close to Palin territory.

I don't find her hot at all. I like the way she presents herself because she looks professional, but other than that, no. But I don't find anyone else in SG-1 or SG:A, male or female, attractive either.

That said, I'm kind of considering cutting my hair like hers in the first pic.

This is it?

Is this what you called a "very important post"?

Hm. Not really my type; features are too... severe I guess.

I see that you have received your parcel, however. I hope you enjoy it!

Indeed! And I found a surprise in there as well; one I had completely forgotten about. Taking my time, as usual, before I open my mouth. Reading through liner notes, listening, remembering...imagining.

I invite you to check out this picspam I did on her a while ago. It's basically my top ten reasons of what there's to love about Amanda Tapping.

Personally, I find her to be one of the most attractive women I've ever seen, and having actually SEEN her in person, I can say that with 100% confidence.

Everything talkofcake said ... AT is gorgeous physically and personality-wise. And Carter was okay, but Magnus takes my breath away. She's an amazing actress as well as all the rest :)

Amanda is an awesome actress and person.

Howdy! I'm quite sure she is - she surely seems able-bodied enough from what I've seen so far; I just felt that condescendingly objectifying her sexually was unseemly. The opposite of bashing her, actually. That being said, I'm unsure whether your comment supports, or dissuades this notion.

Either way, thank you for your comment!

Just another, "See, I told you so."

Let me take you back to the archives when I first called this...

Don't doubt me.

I don't think those publicity photos ever make anyone look good really...

But having met her in real life, I must say that she is very beautiful in person. A lot of people don't translate at their best on television, and the short hair doesn't always help.

That is very, extremely true - though I must admit the majority of people who've told me they find her hot liked her short hair better ;)

How cool that you've met her in r/l!

Lol, I had to randomly comment on this, because the whole reason I avoided SG-1 like the plague was that her face just *annoyed* me. But then I watched Sanctuary where she looked like this:



and was all badass and, well, it was hot. THEN I resolutely decided I only liked her with that hair, but started watching SG-1 anyway because there was no more Sanctuary. But then to my surprise I really liked the show, and she was adorable in a bunch of interviews, and one day I realised I somehow had an Amanda Tapping folder in My Pictures. And that she was hot.

And that is "Amanda Tapping & Me: A Reluctant Love Story" (A Play in Three Acts).

Nice avatar.

Yeah, that makes a lot a sense - I think my wife and I are going to watch Sanctuary next.

I mean sure not everybody has the same taste... but I think your poll does all the talking that is needed!!!
