On actor interactions

Okay, now I've had the time to discuss this with a whole bunch of people, to clarify my point in my head as well as on screen, I'm going to expand on what I was saying in my earlier post. But first, some context for the uninitiated.

A while back, Joe Flanigan was at a con and was telling a story about how sometimes, when other actors are filming reaction shots, he'll screw around and feed them a completely different line. And for an example, he said "I love you, Dr McKay." Naturally there was a huge amount of squealing, applause, all that sort of thing, and fans have since ripped the .mp3 and made it phone friendly and all sorts. It was an awesome fandom moment and it's made us happy for a hell of a long time. Then, at Shore Leave, some fans asked David Hewlett for a response to this, feeding him the line 'I love you too, John Sheppard'. This was filmed, posted on youtube and is linked to on mckay_sheppard if anyone wants to see it.

( Here's the thing. )

I really hope that that made sense, and that I covered all the points that I meant to. More than willing to discuss in the comments because, as with any and all posts made within fandom, your mileage may vary.

I want hugs please.

No, seriously, that's the entire post.
