Samantha Carter and Pidge

[Lunamor she/her]

Ok, so I know this is super obscure and likely no one will know about both of these characters, but does anything else think that Samantha Carter from Stargate and Pidge from Voltron Legendary Defender are basically the same person? They are both the only female on their team, can kick your butt, have similar personalities, are the tech person on their team, and even have similar haircuts.

I am familiar with both of these characters and I both agree and disagree. They're similar on the surface, but Samantha Carter is older, more mature, and more settled into her role as an SG personnel. Pidge by contrast is much younger, more insecure, and still struggling to find her path. Pidge also has the rescue of her family as a motivating force, while the challenges Samantha Carter face are those she took upon herself as part of her career.

Haven't finished Voltron yet though, and it's been a while since I watched Stargate.

I have only watched a few episodes of Stargate, so I guess that I don’t know the character as well as I thought that I did. Wait, what if Pidge is baby/child Sam?
