I noticed early on that Sam did NOT have the typical physique of the Barbie Doll and I found that refreshingly wonderful. She was proportionally slim and that makes sense for a woman on a field team. That was really the last time I can remember noticing until I saw the promo pics from...Season 7?...when they produced THIS as the Sam promo photo:
I was already not happy over their desire to take my brilliant, cerebral, tough soldier Sam and turn her into a lovesick major moping after her colonel. And, geez, now she looks like a Barbie proportionally.
But seriously -- look at the cover photo on the DVD set. Wouldn't you be wondering what they'd been smoking that day at the photo shoot if everyone was standing in a vaguely heroic pose but Teal'c was turned in a partial profile and had his chest thrust forward, arm out, and hand on hip?
My theory on the shininess of the slip cover is that it's to distract us from the lousy job they did on both art AND words. :)
