Fans of the Jack O�Neill/Sam Carter relationship will be happy to know that it is once again addressed in the second half of Stargate�s eighth season. After all this time, though, Tapping wonders just how important it is in the overall scheme of things. �Obviously there�s a chemistry between these two characters and that�s always been fun to play,� she says. �However, it�s become sort of like this mantle we have to wear of. �Wait, what about Jack? But, wait, what about Sam?�

�Yes, it�s a wonderful thing and there�s a clear acknowledgement of the fact that these two people feel something for each other, but I just wish it didn�t always keep coming back to that, do you know what I mean? I�m so proud of the person that the writers have made Sam. She�s become a great woman. I really like Sam and I don�t want her to be just Jack�s gal, and I don�t think Rick wants it either. We�re developing these characters in such a way that they�re becoming more and more real.

�They�ve had their loves and losses and all that makes them more accessible to the viewer. There�s so much more to each of them, and they shouldn�t be defined by one single aspect of their being.�
