Sam - we will miss you!!!

New season - new cast!
To be Atlantis' leader seems to be a tough job. Within five years it switched its leaders three times...hehe! Oh well, it's sad Amanda Tapping alias Sam Carter is leaving Stargate Atlantis cast as a regular. But her reasons seem understandable and plausible. Thus, good luck with Sanctuary, Amanda! It's a great project!
Richard Woosley (or however this is spelled) is going to be the new leader??? Oh my gosh! I can see some funny and great episodes comming up. I bet this Woolsey guy will have big time problems to be accepted as a new Atlantis leader especially after Sam Carter. Robert Picardo is indeed an interesting choice for this role. Can't wait for the result...especially since season five seems to bear some other great surprises such as Micheal Shanks, Paul McGillion and others as guest stars...wohooo! Way to go!
