Many many thanks to Michael Shanks for playing Daniel so admirably through all his trials and tribulations. Thanks also to Richard Dean Anderson, Chris Judge and Amanda Tapping for Jack, Teal’c and Sam. The writing has fallen short far too often in the last couple of years but you have always given 100% and I wish you all the best. Please don’t take my decision to withdraw from this show and this fandom as any reflection on the excellence of your own performances or the appeal of your characters. It would just be too painful for me to watch the team going through the Stargate without Daniel Jackson. The Stargate story began with Daniel standing in that lecture hall doggedly persisting with his theory even though he could not prove it and no one was listening. I’ve watched him find and lose a wife since then. I’ve watched him be able to follow his dream and explore the galaxy, and find an even better family than the one he had on Abydos in the SGC with Jack, Teal’c, Sam, Hammond and Janet. I’ve seen him through too many highs and lows and become too involved in this magnetic character and the people in his life to just forget about him because the writers on the show were unable to incorporate him into the new direction the show has taken over the past few seasons. I love Jack, Teal’c and Sam and will miss them but to paraphrase the most lovable archaeologist to ever appear on television, I can’t watch a show and a team with a hole in its centre in the place where Daniel used to be.

Without Daniel Jackson, there would be no Stargate -- movie *or* series. While I’m a big fan of Richard Dean Anderson -- and even started viewing Stargate the series because I knew he’d be in it -- it didn’t take long to realize that I was watching Stargate primarily because of Daniel Jackson. Michael Shanks’ version of Daniel Jackson. Didn’t like him nearly as well in the movie version, no offense to the original actor.
Daniel’s the one character I can most relate to. Brilliant, insightful, honest, decent, caring, and damned brave -- what’s not to like? And all the Egyptian mythology stuff was fantastic -- and Daniel was the team’s -- hey, Stargate Command’s -- expert in this area. The growing Jack/Daniel friendship became the glue that held the team together through many vicissitudes. I admire Sam -- how many strong but sympathetic female characters are there on television? But, sorry, she & Jack & Teal’c -- never mind this unknown "replacement" for Daniel, whom I hate already just *because* he’s Daniel’s replacement -- can’t carry the show without Daniel. Besides the obvious eye-candy angle (sorry, couldn’t resist Hmm. Geeky guy in glasses -- could *this* be why Daniel’s been virtually written out of the show this season, even before his demise in the upcoming "Meridian"? Does MGM and the Sci-Fi channel *actually* buy into the myth that only (or even mostly) young males like sci-fi and/or action shows (and young males don’t, like *relate* to geeky guys in glasses)? Newsflash. That demographic hasn’t been true since the 1950’s. And young (and even middle-aged) females have *loads* of disposable income in these more enlightened times. Why don’t you target *us* as your audience, for a change? I mean - here I am, a middle-aged female. I’ve bought the CD of the Stargate soundtrack . I’ve bought the 1st season DVD’s. I’ve bought every Stargate book ever published. So why don’t you, TPTB, want *me* to watch this show? Isn’t my money good enough? Don’t I (and others like me) swell your ratings? Because by dropping the character of Daniel Jackson, you’ve lost me as a member of your audience forever. Daniel was the reason I watched, and you’ve screwed this character over. I wondered why this season seemed so -- flat, almost dull -- compared to seasons 1-3 until I realized it was because Daniel Jackson had become mere wallpaper on the show. I don’t intend to watch Stargate, ever again, after Meridian. Oh -- and btw, I won’t be watching Showtime anymore, either. I only ever signed up for it *because* of Stargate. The Stargate of seasons 1-3, when it was a *quality* show; smart, well-written, with fascinating forays into mythology as well as science and marvelous character interaction. And Daniel Jackson was a full, and viable, member of the SG team, bringing to it (and the show) a sense of wonder and adventure, and a love for seeking out the unknown that is at the very root and heart of good science fiction. Brenna Mathiasen <bmathias@lib.usf.edu> spaderfan <miteafrodite@hotmail.com> Cinda Barone < Jenny. H . <PRIVATE> Michael Shanks acting talent stands proudly in so many episodes of SG-1. Please don’t turn away such talent, especially not when the only grievance is the recent narrow writing of a formerly excellent character. Christopher A. Dellario <dellario@mediaone.net> emma cheney <emma_cheney@blueyonder.com> The character of Daniel Jackson is the MAIN reason many many folk watch Stargate SG-1. How stupid could MGM be not to see that. Holy Hannah!! I really hope that the powers to be will finally see sense, and put their heads down and butts up and start writing Daniel scripts and ask Michael to come back.
BRING OUR DR JACKSON HOME TO THE SGC. Does the Stargate top guns have an email address to contact them at? For me living so far away, down under, here in New Zealand, it would be far quicker to bombard them with email messages than to write.
In fact it would be neat if all Daniel supporters could bomb SG-1 top dogs with email messages saying "SAVE OUR DANIEL JACKSON.BRING HIM BACK". Shelly <ryehill@ihug.co.nz> Please, reconsider and offer Michael what he deserves, now before its too late. Please give him the respect, recognition and role that is rightfully his. Tina Tina <TRose@farrer.co.uk> ~*~ This is to TPTB Have *any* of you ever heard of ’supply and demand’? It’s a simple concept, really. If you want to survive in the business world (and television is most definately a business -- that’s why it’s called ’show biz’) you have to supply the demand. If you supply a product that has absolutely no demand, such as Stargate in it’s current state, you WILL go down in flames faster and more spectacularly than an asteroid streaking across the sky. If you want to survive in this Game, you *HAVE* to give the fans (the consumer, who *creates* the demand) what they want. And we don’t **WANT** the changes that have been made to Stargate. We don’t WANT a Jack/Carter romance. We LOVED Stargate the way it was. WE **WANT** DANIEL!! We *WANT* the team the way it was in the first seasons. What is so HARD to UNDERSTAND about this? Why aren’t you *LISTENING* to us?! We’re not murmuring these things to ourselves, we’re not saying it under our breaths, we’re not quietly whispering to each other in the corners. We are NOT being subtle -- we’re being LOUD and clear, screaming it at the top of our lungs, shouting it from the rooftops, with no possible way to misunderstand or misinterpret. So again I ask you: Why aren’t you LISTENING? Are your ears stopped up? Clogged with water, perhapse? Got your heads where only your proctologists will find them? I’m beginning to think you people have a few phobias...the fear of success being the most prominent. It takes a lot of courage to admit when you’ve been wrong and to fix that wrong... And it’s *long* past time the lot of you grew backbones. If Michael Shanks is willing to come back, then get him back on the show! LISTEN to him, fix Daniel’s character, and get on you knees and *beg* if that’s what it takes! If Michael comes back to the show, so will the viewers. And it’s the viewers who ultimately determine which shows stay on the air...I’m surprised none of you have realized this. Stargate was my favorite show and Daniel *is* my favorite character. Just thinking about what you’ve done to Daniel and Michael Shanks, driving him off the show, makes me cry every time. Thank gods for fanfic, otherwise I’d need a prescription for antidepressants after what’s been done to Stargate. Amanda Drake <firedrake@hotmail.com> It was very sad how Daniel’s/Michael’s departure was written. I *can’t* believe TPTB decided to kill off Daniel... the very man who discovered the seventh symbol and made the Stargate work. There could’ve been MUCH better ways to handle this. If this situation was inevitable -- AND IT DIDN’T HAVE TO BE -- I, personally, could’ve stomached and coped with everything MUCH better if Daniel simply decided he had enough of the Stargate and returned to academia. Losing his wife and then doing gate travel for five years... it would’ve been PERFECTLY understandable if he just wanted to walk away and return to a life of normalcy. Plus, if Daniel had just walked away, it would’ve created a MUCH more believable storyline to work in Daniel’s/Michael’s return if such an event would -- AND SHOULD -- happen. Other science fiction shows (such as "Earth: Final Conflict" and "Sliders") have made the mistake of eliminating core characters and have failed. It only makes sense to bring Michael Shanks back in his original role and give him the character development he so rightly deserves. I was amazed at how eerily James Spader-ish he appeared in "Children of the Gods" and most of the first season, but over the years, I have been just as equally amazed at how Michael took Daniel Jackson and made him his own. I bet you, TPTB, are wondering why Daniel is everyone’s beloved? It’s because he is an ordinary individual (such as myself and others here) who believed in himself (i.e., his theory that Egyptian life started earlier than what we believed) when no one else did, and was suddenly thrust into extraordinary situations and became a fish out of water (like I and others here sometimes feel). It is because Daniel is an extraordinary ordinary civilian that I traveled with the SG-1 team for five years. It is also because Daniel is an extraordinary ordinary civilian that I will leave the SGC with him when "Meridan" is airs in the US on May 3. I only hope that you, TPTB, can learn from this very, very sad mistake. -- Stephanie Stephanie Smith <bysen@aol.com> You can’t take an established program, with an established audience, and ’redirect’ it after several seasons with the intent of recycling the concept to attract a new, more desirable demographic. The demographic audience you want has inevitably *already* sampled the show in previous seasons, and made their decision, and will have little or no knowledge of your change of direction. Therefore, they will have no reason to try the show again. Worse yet, even if they hear about your alterations to the cast and writing, the desired demographic will be reluctant to start watching, when they have missed about 4 or 5 years worth of backstory. In the meantime, you’ve completely alienated the balance of your existing audience, which is nothing less than commercial suicide. In the case of Stargate SG-1, the sole exceptions seem to be a fan contingent with the misguided idea that if one character they don’t care for departs, more focus will be put on a romance between two other remaining characters...something the series producers have already established that that they have no intention of doing. In the hope of encouraging the writers to put more of this impossible romance into the scripts, they are currying favor with one of the scriptwriters of their online acquaintance. It’s rather odd and humorous. If there’s a demographic you’d rather have, do another show. This caliber of decision-making does not reflect well on the judgement of a company whose management is trying to sell itself. L Rosenthal <bizarro7@aol.com> Caitlin <Ashleighese@aol.com> Precisely HOW far up your ass do you have to have wedged your skull to miss the fact that pursuing the tits-n-’splosions demographic is a sure-fire recipe to send your show down in flames? It NEVER WORKS, you nitwits. How the hell can you possibly have missed this? Janis Cortese <janis@io.com> Rob <robhills@blueyonder.co.uk> Boblu <Boblu_elf@yahoo.co.uk> a Mummy <Dotcom@blueyonder.co.uk> a Mummy <Dotcom@blueyonder.co.uk> My question is for the writers of the show. Exactly what is it that you are holding over the heads of your superiors that they continue to retain you, but let the heart and soul of the show walk? It must be something huge because it coninues to allow you to stab an actor in the back long after you have run him off the show; as in comparing him to the monkey from the show Friends. Lovey folks you are. No wonder you had to get rid of the character of Daniel Jackson. He’s simply too nice for you to write for. Thank God for the internet. I would have been devastated had I simply tuned in to watch Meridian. Now, I’m prepared, and will let the VCR do the watching for me. Maybe someday, when I have long ceased to care about this, maybe then I will watch it. But, right now, knowing what’s about to happen is more than enough for me. Now I say, bon voyage Stargate, ye sail on without me. (Watch out for that iceberg... oops you hit it!) Carol Duplessie <cdupless@msn.com> Frank <fmb15@optonline.net> I can’t believe that at the end of the series, one of the leading characters is not going to be there. Something needs to be done as my girlfriend is going to go mad, unless you bring Daniel back. You have to help MGM! As a bloke, it was quite wierd for me to actually get involved with one of my girlfriend’s programmes, but it was something that we both have really loved. She is distraught. She is still moaning after Meridian and its been ages. Are you going to pay for her counselling in getting over Daniel! Bring him back quickly. Pay him whatever! He is brilliant. Rob
Robert Aldridge <robaldridge67@hotmail.com> I know we cannot ’blame’ any one person for Daniel Jackson being written out of the show. It seems as though a lot of time was spent deliberating on the choice, but it was made, and what is done - is unfortunately done. But in the true power and spirit of the small (or big) screen. What is done, can always be undone. I guess what we are all trying to say in one way or another is - Daniel Jackson was a great pinnicle character, Michael Shanks is a great actor. Although the rest of the team is great as well, they are no longer just that....a TEAM. The fans feel strongly about this, and the actors obviously feel strongly about this too (someone mentioned below that Amanda became emotional at watching the episode where Daniel dies...Christopher Judge didn’t even need to watch it...we simply asked how he felt at the latest convention in Feb and he started to cry).
All I can ask is that who ever the powers that be in this situation take everyones thoughts into consideration, and make a choice that will inevitably make us all happy. Thank you for your time - and a place to voice my opinion. Melissa <melissa_smith78@hotmail.com> What was it someone told you, that people like shows with female leads and you jumped right to it.. following the lead of shows like Dark Angel without looking at what your audience (remember us? the people who watch the show *now*?) really want to see. We’re just the people who put the show where it was, that’s all, why should anything *we* think about SG matter at all to you? You’ve got talented actors, creative writers (well, most of them are creative, others just have large action movie collections and an old joke book), so what’s to stop you re-inventing SG the way you want? One thing. Our desire to watch the results of your mutations. Is SG going to be around long enough to survive your experimentation? If you wanted to make a Dark Angel clone, then why not use the spin-off you’ve been planning to do that? That could have been ideal - write in a feisty (*shudder*) female lead and you’re away. But no, you couldn’t do that. You’d rather mess with a winning formula, turn a show that was about the team and their relationships into the Sam Carter Show. That just goes to prove you don’t get it - SG was never about one character, it was always about the team. Together they carry the show, make it a success, but focus on less than the team (and that lens has been closing in further and further as the seasons go by) and the premise falters. That’s fine. It’s your show (as so many people keep reminding us... *g*). Just remember to wash your hands when you’ve finished flushing it down the toilet. Paula emma <private> I think that Jack’s reluctance to admit to Sam that he misses Daniel is just part of who he is. His character... He is a character, with character traits to live up to, in order to ensure continuity... Besides, did NO ONE see the look of realisation & relief that he allowed himself when Daniel swept by in the corridor, & the others’ had already entered the lift??? Jack O’Neill is, by nature, a privacy-loving, secretive man... It’d be so out of character for him to talk easily about his feelings! If we, the fans, know Jack and Daniel, then we know that they, grudgingly, cared for one another... That’s what made their shared ’moments in time’ so FUN!!! I LOVE Daniel... I miss Daniel already... I wish MS had never left, but I am NOT half-witted... I can tell the difference between Daniel & Michael. To me, they are like separate entities, both of whom I will miss as being part of SG1’s heart and soul. I once bought a holographic style card, got it home, & realised that, on it, the girl in the painting on the card, her eyes caught the light, & with the holographic influence, looked a little like Sha’re/Amaunet... This spooked me out because the Goa’uld, frankly, are scary, & I thought, stupidly, Daniel would not be impressed by me for this card (which I later gave to a friend!)... My point is this: Daniel thought everything was fascinating, even the down right frightening... That’s what enabled him to battle, and sometimes, be so truly brave, which is close to downright foolishness when you think of what SG1 has faced!!! That’s also what made us LOVE him, and made me temporarily forget my senses, (!) & worry that Daniel would NOT be pleased with me & my Sha’re esque card... That’s the mark of fantastic acting, to have the audience see your character as REAL, even when most of them realise, if they have to be brutally honest with themselves, s/he isn’t... That’s why I will miss BOTH Michael Shanks and Daniel Jackson, because each gifted me with the other. Bethany emma <94ec032@aldersleyhigh.biblio.net> emma <94ec032@aldersleyhigh.biblio.net> emma <94ec032@aldersleyhigh.biblio.net> Stacey <StaceyLMcCormick@yahoo.com> I became interested in the show because of the mythological background and later during the show I became a fan. I can’t imagine seeing the show without Daniel Jackson in it. I understand that Micheal Shanks has to move on and that he decided to leave the show for whatever reasons. I wish him luck with whatever new projects he’ll work on but I would really prefer it if Daniel Jackson would return to the show. Furthermore, I don’t understand why MGM is taking so long to decide whether or not to make a movie. It’s a great concept, the show is brilliant and I imagine that a good script can’t be that hard to find! So: do your best to make a movie and please return our beloved Daniel Jackson to the show. It’s not the same without him! Jo <alma@stargatesg-1.com> My husband and I are avid viewers of Stargate SG-1 and look forward each week to Friday evenings at "10 Sharp." We do not understand why the writers of this show would write out such an important and necessary character to the storyline of this program. The Daniel Jackson character represents the collective curiosity and thirst for knowledge of both ancient and future cultures that might be encountered were a Star Gate Program ever to become reality. Daniel Jackson’s personality and character is the juxtaposition or complimentary other side of the militaristic element represented by the character Jack O’Neill. We recently had the opportunity to view the original Stargate movie and observed that it is essential to the story to have Daniel Jackson and his expressed viewpoints. He added that element of innocent curiosity and awe of the discovery of an ancient civilization that the SG-1 team encountered, whereas the other members of the team -- being all military -- took a more aggresive and protective stance at the discovery of Abidos and its people at every turn. That aspect needs a more intellectual and doveish approach to round out the rough and pointy edges of the strictly military viewpoint, which the story would be otherwise. Thank you for considering my point of view. We hope that you will reconsider relegating Daniel Jackson to a lesser role in the series and promote him back up the importance ladder as his character is such an integral part of this story.
Margaret Vick <sissiewest@aol.com> Dangermouse <dmouse@tiscali.co.uk> No matter how much fans want Michael Shanks back on the show, how will all these recriminations aimed at the producers and writers help to achieve this? If they are aware of this site and have read some of the impassioned criticisms by fans they certainly won’t like it. They are not so much being flamed as roasted alive and no-one likes to read such criticism of their work. I believe that Brad Wright and co. do care deeply about Stargate and they are also human and can make mistakes like all of us. A lot of the his comments in the latest article spring from the way television in the US does business. He has to put out a positive spin and try to move on from recent events because it is his job to continue to sell the show. The very bottom line for the studio is money and the creative process often suffers because of this. MGM and the producers are probably kidding themselves if they think that they are going to attract masses of new viewers when the show is in its last year. The evidence from other science fiction series shows that the quality of writing often dips as they near the end of the road. The jury is out on whether a really substantial number of the die hard fans desert the show or not. Unfortunately the only numbers that matter to the studio are in the US, not the rest of the world. Stargate has been a great show - that is why it has captivated the imagination of so many people and why so many are upset at the loss of Daniel Jackson. Is Daniel really gone for ever? I suppose that depends on whether Michael Shanks finds other work and his availability becomes limited. Maybe Brad Wright is correct and the change will spark fresh ideas. Lets not also overlook the possibility of Daniel returning for some episodes and his new status could bring in an added dimension. Everyone seems keen that he should be in any new film. We are all grieving for the loss of Daniel and it just won’t be the same without him. We also have to come to terms with the fact that the character was in effect written out in Meridian and it is highly unlikely that Michael Shanks will choose to come back on a regular basis. I just hope that the writers continue to show some sensitivity regarding Daniel’s loss and its impact on the team. I wasn’t too impressed by Jonas - he wasn’t an inspiring character like Daniel and their backgrounds were a little too similar i.e. scholar, nerd etc. They have a great opportunity here to do something with the remaining team dynamic and if it is just “business as usual” and here’s Daniel’s replacement then they will have done an even greater injustice to the character of Daniel Jackson and rubbished the years of talented work by Michael Shanks.
Monica Hamilton "I wonder how many of the people here who now supposedly hate the writers will watch the episode with Daniel Jackson in it in S6. ^^ Friday, February 08, 2002, 9:49:35 PM " We don’t hate anybody mate! That would be too simplictic! Fans are hurt, confused and angry - but that does not neccessarily issue in HATE, Daniel would expect beter of us! Dotty <dotcom@cableinet.co.uk> leah B.H. ^^ Cally <CalK31@aol.com> I hope everyone concerned is proud of themselves, with one blow destroyed a wonderful series. In the word of the song played to such effect at SG4, "if we could only turn back time, but I guess we’ll never know". Please I hope not Daniel deserves his place on the team. After meeting Michael Shanks I am now a bigger fan than ever. Linda After reading the comments in this guestbook, I just wanted to say that I cannot believe that TPTB have not bothered to even acknowledge this site! What a brilliant reflection it is, of the impact the character of Daniel Jackson and the acting skills of Michael Shanks have had on the fans! It is VERY obvious that his character is of vital importance to the series and the team dynamic. Everyone loves Daniel. He is the conscience of SG1. Please bring him back. We need him... Kristina x Kristina <ninarose72@yahoo.co.uk> It would be easy to dismiss what is happening as "Sci Fi Fans over reacting". But to me it seems that there are very real emotions being roused here, real grief, tears, pain and anger which are all a natural part of bereavement. OK, in real life when someone dies, it really IS the end and we have to deal with it and so we do, in many and varied ways. And perhaps therein lies the danger here, Daniel is not "really" dead, just "ascended" and "may" be back. Scriptwriters of all genres are a privileged people, having power over life and death of their characters and sharing this with us, the reader or viewer. We get involved, people LOVE Daniel Jackson and all that he stands for (present tense intentional). It is concerning indeed that scriptwriters and producers - people with such power and immense privilege - do not appear to have the ability, or integrity, to continue to develop a character such as Dr Daniel Jackson. From what I read and hear the actor did not want to go, his fellow actors did not and his fans certainly did not - and we are left with a void and this WILL be filled: But probably not as the producers would like, with a replacement character - it just cannot happen, real grief takes time, years even to resolve and for people to "move on", so one further series simply will not do it, especially with the "possible" return of Daniel as guest in future episodes and films. In real life, most of us would give almost anything to prevent the death or loss of someone we love. We do not have power to change it, scriptwriters and producers do. One can only conclude that the pain inflicted on everyone concerned is deliberate, and it has really hurt people (the antithesis of all that Stargate and Daniel Jackson stood for) and that is a very cruel(and ultimately lonely) place for a human being to stand. Kathy Jones <Not provided> ann soan <annsoan@hotmail.com> The only reason I referred to the movie as possible is because nothing has been signed yet. DJ will be in an episode in S6 and the possible film - therefore, it is not vital to the success of the show to see him in every episode. Granted, I’d rather not see him go, but I certainly don’t believe that it can result in the demise of Stargate. >< And WHY, exactly, would the show NOT get the movie if Daniel Jackson’s character isn’t vital? The only reason the fate of the movie would be in question would be if sixth season does so horribly that MGM would choose not to finance it. And why would sixth season do horribly? Maybe because fans would tune out, not wanting to see a Daniel-less SG1. Most fans aren’t online...just a small portion of the fanbase that has found this site. I’ve spoken to friends who watch the show...without Daniel, they’re just not interested. By all means, you keep on saying (and at least this time, you said it politely) that the character of Daniel isn’t vital to the success of Stargate. But it seems to me that you’ve just admitted that it is.
Khek It seems simple to me. MGM? Assure MS his character will be used appropriately and written equally with the others and see if you can reach agreement. None of us wants to stop watching the show. Please don’t make us. clangers_grrl Katt <katt@SG-1.com> I cannot help but wonder if Rik (Executive Producer etc) is a little jealous of Daniel, but surely that can’t be right??????? Ya think?
Dotty! Dot <Dotcom@cableinet.co.uk> termis The thing that impressed me most was the relationship between Amanda and Michael. How great it was to watch two best friends have a laugh and giggle. Then of course they played the tape of Meridian and it seemed to me a great sadness descended over the fans and the actors. They looked at each other and cried! Of course, we’d all been blubbing since they played it on Sky that week! I have to say that I was thrilled to listen to both Michael and Amanda tell stories about Stargate and the fun they had over the years. It was enthralling and thoroughly captivating. It was amazing how they both held the audience in their hands. The thing that came across though was the raw sadness between them. Although Michael was completely honourable and didn’t say a word against the programme, it really felt to the fans as if he had been ripped out of the heart of the programme. It didn’t feel like it was a nice and cosy exit on his part. It felt WRONG. VERY WRONG. I believe that Michael didn’t really want to go anywhere and would have been quite happy to stay and finish what he and the others started. He came across as being a very loyal guy who thoroughly promoted the programme and slogged his way through hundreds of autographs. All I can say is - Michael and Daniel deserved better. We the fans deserve action. I suggest that we step up the campaign and get those letters out. We can do it. We can make them listen. We got Season Six - Now lets get Daniel back. Elizabeth Wylie <wookie@ukgateway.net> But was that puff of wind and the smile from Jack a hint the maybe all is not lost and maybe Daniel will be back? sue <lunar@blueyonder.co.uk> Daniel Jackson is indubitably the most popular character of Stargate SG-1. Any representative internet poll ever made confirms it. I asked my family, friends, acquaintances, people who, for the most part, watch the show only casually. When I told them about Daniel being written out, the unanimous response was, "What? Are they nuts?" Indeed. I watched Meridian via squinty-vision asf file, and I cried. That hasn’t happened to me since Star Trek II. For the record, I’m 36 years old, and crying over the demise of fictional characters is not something I normally indulge in. But Daniel is unlike so many fictional characters. He is three-dimensional, thoroughly believable, and lovable. Out of all the characters on Stargate, we, as viewers, are most likely to identify with him, because he represents our own wonder at the miracles out there. His passion, courage, morality and intelligence are what draws us in. He is the main reason I watch the show, and that goes for anyone around here I asked. When he died, it seemed more real to me than the passing of other characters on television. And infinitely more tragic, because the wonder and passion of the show died with him. I also normally don’t try to influence the filming of anything. But in this case, I find I can’t keep my peace any longer. I, as a fan, will probably care about what will happen to SG-1 even after Daniel is gone. But the casual viewers of my acquaintance have already stated they won’t watch anymore. And they are part of what makes up the ratings. They are the viewers who were drawn to the series because of the feature film, and - let’s face it - because of Daniel Jackson, and I think they are the silent majority. A majority who won’t complain, and who will silently switch off. I’ll go on watching, but I won’t go spending my money on Season 6. I’m a scientist and a woman, but I identify more with Daniel than with Sam. Sorry. I don’t want Super Sam. I don’t want to watch another romance between two leads. I don’t want to watch another military shoot-em-up show. I don’t want to watch another conspiracy show. I want the mystery of the feature film and of the first three seasons. I want to watch SG-1 - and Daniel - visit unknown worlds and find out about human history and nature. I want to see the friendship between Jack and Daniel, and Daniel and Sam, and Daniel and Teal’c. It’s easy. The viewers want Daniel. Michael Shanks wants back if the viewers get Daniel. The door is open. So, where is the problem? What do TPTB stand to lose by bringing back Daniel? Bring him back. Please bring him back. I’ll buy the Season 6 DVDs, but only if Daniel comes back.
Erique <i.wohlfahrt@12move.de> If they won’t give him back for our (the fans) sake - how about for Sam? Athene <goddess.athene@ntlworld.com> Helen
Dear Mr. Cohen, "Sci Fi Channel wanted a new...er...they needed a new sort of dynamic so they could sell the show as a different kind of season. I think that was the right...er...the right angle for them to take into the sixth season is a bit of a ...er...cast shift and that’s sort of what happened." -Michael Shanks, interviewed on Sci Fi Talk, December 2001 "I thought that what I was doing on the show was becoming seemingly more confined, and having broached the subject with the powers that control these things, it became clear that the character wasn’t important enough to the overall process to warrant an upgrade." - Michael Shanks, Dreamwatch #88, December, 2001 These are but two of the many quotes that struck me. My question to you is - Why? Daniel Jackson is an integral part of the SGC, and he has been reduced to nothing more than a silent character with less and less screen time. Yes, I know Meridian was Michael’s last episode, but still, my question remains - Why? This is a man who received a four-minute standing ovation from nine hundred fans at SG-4. Let me repeat that figure - NINE HUNDRED! This is an actor that touched the hearts of fans each time he uttered a word, or discovered a piece of the Goa’uld puzzle. He is the heart and soul of the show, the conscience in the center of what’s become a military driven show. Mr. Shanks has expressed both his displeasure in the way the series has changed, and the direction his character has gone as well as expressed his desire to return to the show. My question remains: Why? Why has no one listened to him? Why has no one paid this man, who has given them five years of dedicated service, the time of day? Why are you allowing this to happen? Fans are leaving, and you can still bring them back. They love Daniel, and the show, the syndication ratings are proof of this. The evidence shows itself clearly at the Solutions website (www.savedanieljackson.com), where the guest book is overflowing with an outpouring of emotion from fans in every nation, of every age, and from every walk of life. Fans who want Daniel back, but not as the "wallpaper" he’s been reduced to, but the Daniel Jackson we fell in love with. The explorer who finds wonder in simple things, the man who believes in things that others dismiss as fantasy, with such a passion that you can’t help but be sucked in. We are the voices you should be listening to. We are the ones who will either make, or break season six. We hold the power - yet you control it. We have given you a sixth season, a season not worth watching without Daniel. Mr. Cohen, I implore you, listen to the fans, hear what we’re saying. Fix what’s broken. Bring back Michael Shanks like he wants - like WE want. If we are the ’vocal contingent’ - as we’ve been so lovingly labeled - why aren’t you listening? Sincerely, Renee Novak Renee <jdsluckyace@aol.com> Daniel Belmonte <danisaurb@hotmail.com> Yes, I sit here, with a DJ print on my wall... Yes, I watch the videos every day... Yes, though I am perfectly aware that they are FICTIONAL, they are ALSO VERY REAL to me... That’s because this is the mark of a great show, and an AMAZING cast with ENDEARING characters to portray... You CAN’T rid yourselves of these VITAL ingredients, PLEASE!!! SG1 is a TEAM: A team comprised of O’Neill, Carter, Teal’c, & JACKSON!!! Don’t get rid of DANIEL... I think that if you do, this webpage may find it ABSOLUTELY necessary to adopt the song ’DANIEL’ by Elton John as its anthem... That’s a very sad song, and we don’t want to be forced to listen to it forever... That’s what you’re doing: Forcing us to listen to a very sad and sorry song, because we’ve invested so much in these characters’ & actors, we can’t abandon them now... Maybe, that’s what will save SG1... I’m not saying I’ll hate Jonas, but I do agree with one entry in here (if not all, to some degree!) I WILL be searching for DANIEL in every scene: There are some things that are considered VITAL to life, and DANIEL is VITAL to the life & soul of SG1: It’ll go on, because we are loyal, but our hearts will be broken, & broken hearted fans do not make for an easy life!!! WE LOVE DANIEL: We may watch him through tough times in some episodes, or even, if you’re like me, write him into some tough stories & episode ideas, but that’s because we have to remind ourselves he is FICTIONAL: HE IS SO REAL to us because of the talents that combined to make him... If we did not remind ourselves that Daniel IS fictional, however we choose to, he would stay motionless forever because he is SO WONDERFUL, NOBODY would want to harm a hair on the head of a man like DANIEL JACKSON... Real life isn’t like that, life happens, we realise, so give us back our PRECIOUS escapism: GIVE US BACK DANIEL JACKSON!!! Don’t do yourselves, the fans, Michael Shanks, or DJ, an injustice: You made SG1 what it WAS, and we LOVE (d) it just as it WAS: Don’t lose that element, I beg you!!! Bethany I can only imagine that when he went to them to discuss the future of his character and the development of his role he expected some semblance of loyalty and appreciation for his magnificent portrayal of Dr J over the last 5 years. Instead he is relegated to mere background fodder and decides to do something about it. WHO CAN BLAME HIM! Are you quite mad at MGM? Have you lost the PLOT! Michael Shanks/Daniel Jackson are quite simply the reason the majority of fans tune in. We love the interplay between Jack and Daniel and the team dynamic that has proved so successful over the series. We don’t want another character who is gutless and lifeless. I wonder whether the Powers That Be ever bother to read this site. If they did they should pluck up the courage to post a message and tell us what they are going to do about it! Have they any clue on how powerful this fanbase is. What a lucrative project the movie would be? Only with Michael Shanks...Only with Michael Shanks. I hope Hank Cohen kicks ass and shows some spirit and let’s us know what he is going to do about this. We want a certain Dr Jackson back for Season 6. Nothing is impossible. Over to you Hank...
Wendy Robinson <Wendel@UKgateway.net> I’ve been online for a while, heard the spoilers for Meridian, read the interviews with various people and still I didn’t quite believe it was going to happen. I suppose I hoped that it might all be a horrible dream, that my favourite TV show wouldn’t be ripped apart this way. Unfortunately, I just discovered I was wrong. And I cried. I couldn’t help it. Because I wasn’t just losing a character I loved, one I feel I’ve come to know over the past 5 years, I was losing the show I loved as well. Because Stargate SG-1 without Daniel Jackson isn’t Stargate SG-1 at all. We get that, the fans, the people posting on this board and the ones who don’t even know how to express how they feel, or who to complain to. Michael Shanks clearly gets that, if the interviews are anything to go by. Why the hell don’t the people making the show get that? I hadn’t made my mind up till I saw Meridian, but I know now that I can’t watch season 6 unless Daniel is there. And I won’t be buying tickets for any SG movie unless Daniel is there. So, for me the final episode of Stargate SG-1 ever made was Meridian. What I’d like to ask TPTB is this: what the hell were you thinking? You had a successful show, a winning formula and you messed with it! Are you dumb or what? Without Daniel, there is no Stargate SG-1 - it’s as simple as that. Paula sinead mckay <sinead_mckay@hotmail.com> martyn dix <dixm@ihug.co.nz> thankyou from ~LiYaNa~ ~LiYaNa~ <liyana_leo@msn.com> I am not going to get into a slagging match about DJ’s replacement, or any other aspect of the show that’s debatable: This remains unchanged: Though it took me a while to get out of stereo-typical Trekkie mode, & realise that I can LOVE more than one sci-fi show without being disloyal to either, I LOVE and ADORE ALL the members of the SG1 team & the SGC in general... I am not saying that I need my grip on reality checked, I know they are fictional... But I have avoided Season 5 of SG1 like the plague, because I knew what was coming: DJ’s (and Michael Shanks’) departure... Then, I braved it, prefering to get it over & done with! It was such a SAD, beautiful, heart wrenching goodbye... The kind you wish could have happened with you & any loved one you may have lost in real life... Daniel’s Ascension, though computerised, had an ethereal, organic beauty, and the LOVE felt for the character by his fellow characters’, it TRULY did shine... I wish he hadn’t had to go, but I understand and support Michael Shanks & the decision he made: However, just to put it on the record: Producers, if Michael truly is happy to guest star again, BRING HIM BACK!!! We don’t all want war & tension each week when we tune into (the still much loved) SG1: We want some of the character-based, team-built, explorative,escapism of old, and we WANT to see Daniel again... I LOVE the character friendships’, the fun, the teamwork, the dynamic of the mixture: Do more of what only SG1 can do; Cater for everyone, but (more) than once in a blue moon, go back to your roots of discovery... Any old show can do alien war & endless, seemingly hopeless battles, though they have their place in SG1... But there was more to the show than that! I WILL NEVER STOP LOVING THE SHOW, now that I have (over the last year) given in and given away my heart to it: The characters & the actors deserve my loyalty, & so do the crew, but give me MORE of what made me GIVE IN SO TOTALLY: CHARACTER based stories and informative exploration of ancient cultures: That’s what made SG1 SO enthralling!!! Thank you, from Bethany Bethany You have killed off THE most popular character in the history of television!!!!! You must be feeling very proud right now. LadyJane. <Private> FreeJack Boblu Boblu <Boblu_elf@yahoo.co.uk> David Blank <cndblank@yahoo.com> Sandy <private> I think that Richard Dean Andersen should show some real backbone and go and get Michael back. He made Stargate happen. He should stand up and be counted. We the fans - love him to bits but boy, do we want to see some action - pronto. Michael Shanks grew as an actor during his time on Stargate. He amazed us all with his wonderful portrayal of a certain Dr J and allowed us all to escape for an hour, once a week. We have all felt the warmth between Jack and Daniel and loved their quick fire banter and ad libs that are so much a part of Stargate and really define the show for us. We need you RDA. Go fix this. Make it right for the Stargate fans. We deserve our Season Six with Daniel/Jack intact. We know that you are the man with the power and the persuasion. Go get him back. After all - you never leave a man behind...
It is very clear that the fans want to see Michael Shanks back in Season Six. Nothing else will do. Now - how to get what we want Heather Broadbent <heatherine@ukgateway.net> Dear TPTB, have you bothered to check your mails, e-mails, telephone messages lately? Have you bothered to try to see the fan reaction at Daniel’s departure? Because I don’t think so. If you just spent ten minutes searching what do the fans want, you’d find that they want a sixth season with SG-1, and saying SG-1 I mean ALL of them as in Jack, Sam, Teal’c AND Daniel. We don’t want any drastic change of plot, or any new *great* *fantastic* *bestinthewolrd* substitute. We want Daniel. It’s that simple. We’ve read why Michael decides to quit the show, and I agree with him. But if you thought that the solution was in letting him go, let me give you some news: You are sooooo wrong.... you’re just getting that lots of people that love Stargate-sg1, will decide they don’t want to continue watching the show without such an important and essential character like Daniel. Count me on that group, please. And don’t try selling us the ‘but hey! On sixth season we’re gonna see a lot of things never seen before yadda yadda...’, because what we want to see in season six, is Daniel with SG-1, doing what he loves to do: explore new cultures and visit new countries. So please, TPBT, I wish that soon you’ll find what we want, after all, the show should be for us, right?, and try to settle the problem, because I love Stargate SG-1, and I would be really sad to see such a good show becoming bad, or worse....

If T.P.T.B. read just one thing it should be the message left by Emma’s mum. I now know why I will continue to fight for Daniels return. Patricia .W. <Personal> And as for replacing him, Nyan from Bedrossia would be a far better choice than Quinn. We (and SGC) know Nyan as a brave man, open to ideas that challenge his understanding of the universe, and prepared to make hard choices for the good of others. He has presumably been working with SGC since his arrival on Earth. Who’d choose a fast-reading stranger who has to be pressurised into doing the right thing over someone with Nyan’s qualities who knows what SGC is about? Bottom line: I love the Stargate universe, I loved the team interactio. But they’ve gradually become posturing cardboard cutouts rather than real people. Give us back THE team, or at least A team. If Daniel must be replaced, replace him with a character we can admire. Áine Aine McManus <ainemcmanus@iolfree.ie> Mrs Kim Jennings <k.a.jennings@talk21.com> First, let me send you a hug. You are not alone honey, all of us feel just the same. Go and watch your old tapes, this will make you feel better. And never, never forget what a wonderful character Daniel Jackson is. To whom it may concern:
Rembember when you were just a child? Yeah children, little beings, adults wannabe, our future, who open big eyes whenever you go to them and tell them stories. Children live for stories to be told. They listen, believe, make the journey like no one else can. Perhaps because they have enough innocence to believe. What happens next? You grow up. And you are taught to be responsible, to behave like an adult and face Real Life which can be amazing but also tedious and painful. There is a hope, though. Stories that drive you that bring you back when you were young, when you believed. Stories that show you the wonders of undiscovered places and allow you to identify with fictional characters who felt so alive. For some time you are allowed to be a child again. Oh, but maybe you forgot. Or perhaps you never were there. That’s why it was so easy for you to do this, isn’it? Ah, because this is all about money. Cool. Yep, can’d deny this, but we are the ones who give you the money. We give you money because we long the stories. You lost the magic touch, so now comes bye bye. To Emma:
This has been a hard lesson, and it’s so unfair that you had to learn it that way. But there is another truth, bigger than this pain. No one can take the wonder away from you. All my love Nausica <kree@menta.net> Kay <Gatelagged@aol.com> Mary JuliaTapp Mr. Wright, I thank you wholeheartedly for giving me that escape five years ago. But now you’re taking it away from me, and I have to say that it hurts. It hurts very much. Especially at this dire time in the world, a time when I need that *wonder* more than any other time in my life. Danger is one thing; men/jaffa/whatever killing each other so you can have bigger and better explosions... well, that’s something else entirely. It’s something I really, really don’t need right now. Debra <dkraft@yazaki-na.com> Sinead <sinead_mckay@hotmail.com> Mr. Brookes <None> Amanda <private> Rob ¿What were they thinking?
Tamsyn <kleeshay@burnbabyburn.co.uk> Peggy <prehberger@aol.com> claire <monet@netlineuk.net> Not that I think they will read any of the fan responses, however. They are too busy wondering what else they can do to make sure season six is a complete and utter failure and that their movie deal falls through. Perhaps they are also wondering if the monkey from Friends is available since they seem to think comparing it to Daniel was a good idea. Then again, original thought is not their forte. To prove it, they named the new character Jonas. How original. Lets see,now. That would be the second Jonas, and we had a Jona. We can’t forget the three Charlie’s and the two Sara/Sarah’s. If they can’t give each character its own name, how can we possibly expect them to come up with an original thought when it comes to writing for Daniel? Saying that Daniel’s story arc was over is ludicrous. These guys get PAID to write? Give them a few more bucks and maybe they can THINK, too. From all the comments I’ve read from the creators, producers and writers of Stargate, I’ve come to the conclusion they think pretty highly of themselves. They think the fans are rude and stupid and the actors should be seen and not heard. Guess what, guys - you have no clue.
You are so determined not to be wrong that you’ve closed your eyes to the truth. It’s okay to change your mind and do the right thing, both for the fans and for your careers. You still have a chance to be the good guys. TAKE IT. When the series is over (sooner than you think) and you’re looking for work, do you want to be the idiot who killed a hit TV show or the smart guy who recognized a big mistake had been made and rushed to correct it? I know which one I’d hire. Kai Kai <kaijr@aol.com> Val <canuckchinook@yahoo.com> That’s gone and I don’t think it will ever return. I wish it would. Killing Daniel off was probably the biggest mistake I’ve seen yet in a series of errors of epic proportions. Without Daniel as part of the team, there is little hope that I will ever return to being the dedicated fan that I once was; one of ’vocal-minority’ that so infused the newsgroup at the start of Season Four hurt, bewildered, and betrayed. Loyality is earned, not given blindly. Rae Rae Crider <raec@squidge.org> Forgive my venting here but I can only say to Hank Cohen and MGM: what planet have you been living on for the past five years? How could you have not known that Daniel Jackson is a BELOVED, absolutely beloved, character. Irreplaceable. The kind of character that comes along perhaps once in a generation. Michael Shanks gave this character the breath of life that is unusual in the annals of television. Spock? I’m not even sure Spock compares. Have you been living with Mullah Omar in a cave in Afghanistan? How could you have possibly have missed this!? Go back to the negotiating table right now and work things out with Michael Shanks. Go back to the drawing table immediately. You marginalized his character and now you have a terrible mess on your hands. You’ve already lost a chunk of your core audience due to the creative repositioning of this series during seasons four and five. And now you allowed Shanks to slip through your fingers!? Correction – you drove him out. What kind of arrogance is this that you simply think you can blithely keep recreating your audience? What kind of organization would allow this actor to walk out the door? Your audience is tuning out. To Bonnie Hammer, President of SciFi Channel: on sale now, at a steep discount - Stargate. 50% off because the series has just lost half the reason viewers tune in. Oh – and another thing Mr. Cohen: that Mallozzi guy is walking public relations disaster. His comments comparing cast departures to "that monkey on ‘Friends’" has inflamed grieving viewers and his remarks are making this difficult situation even more unmanageable for MGM. Take some advice from an experienced publicist here: muzzle Mallozzi.

--
S.Mitchell, Dip. Ed., F.R.S.P.B. <sue@imps.co.uk> Chuck sam Do the PTB seriously think that "new" viewers will start watching a series in its sixth season, new character or not? No-one is that naive. Greedy maybe, but not naive. I watched Meridian. I cried. I thought the acting and script were superb. I’ll give the next episode a chance, but in my heart I know that I’ll be searching for Daniel in every scene. Best wishes to Michael Shanks - at least *he* did the honourable thing. Helen <red.ddraig@ntlworld.com> elfin <elfin@burble.com> When the news was announced at Gatecon, Brad Wright told fans that Daniel might return for up to six episodes. In a later chat with Cult Times, Wright suggests, "Of course, the method by which Daniel is leaving completely leaves the door open, and if things work out he ’will’ return." In a recent interview with Sci-Fi Magazine (?) , he said that he’d written one script featuring Daniel Jackson. One. So…what happened to the open door? Where did those *six episodes* go? In the chat (posted on this site) with the H/C list, Joseph Mallozzi says "No thought has been given to bringing MS back to the show as a regular member of the cast. " Even though I trust this man about as far as I can throw him, I hate to say that I believe this statement. Why? Because Michael Shanks, at his various appearances around the UK, has stated that no one has contacted him about season 6 episodes. So, what is it? One or six? Open or closed door? Happy viewers or…no viewers? Personally, I think they have no intention of writing Daniel back in unless the ratings are so bad that the show is about to be canceled—then they’ll desperately crawl back to MS to beg him to try and save their show. While I enjoy picturing that moment, it sure seems like it would be more intelligent to figure out how to save Stargate SG-1 before it gets to that point. The answer is simple. Save Daniel Jackson…save Stargate. (I also think someone at Stargate/MGM should muzzle their writing staff before they open their mouths again. For crying out loud, get together and make a decision on who is going to say what! If BW is in charge of the writers, he needs to sit on JM before he pisses off so many people that they lose more viewers based solely on his arrogance.)
KellyW How can we possibly like a character like Quinn who firstly stood and watched as Daniel saved Quinn’s raece from disaster, secondly would not admit the truth to his government and thirdly has now betreyed his government by giving Earth the previously unknown element. He has no idea what we could use it for; for all he knows we might use it to build a bomb. So he’s a coward, a traitor and stupid! Yup, a ’great’ replacement for Daniel. Alison Alison P You go ahead and try for new viewers. Of course, the Sci-Fi channel is going to run the show in chronological order--which means even the "new’ viewers are going to see the freshness and enthusiasm of seasons one, two, and three first. Followed by the unevenness of seasons four and five. We’ll just see how many "new" viewers are going to stay, once they realize that your writers have killed off the best part of the show through carelessness, if not downright pettiness. There’s still some time to do damage control, isn’t there? I think you should start by firing most of the "fresh" writers who came on in season four, and going back to the enthusiam and newness of your origins. And, by the way, to keep most of your audience, it sounds like you’d have to bring back Daniel Jackson, if you can manage to convince the actor that you won’t screw his character over again. You’ve seen our reactions...and the news hasn’t even hit the US fans who don’t have internet access or friends in the UK. Go...fix...before it’s too late! Khek Khek Sharon Katherine Sherry <private> Penny Carothers I had noticed what I believed to be a decline in the series, with far too much attention focused on conspiracy and earthbound ideas and was pleased to find Mr Shanks thought the same. What I was not pleased about was that the people who seem to run the show can’t recognise this obvious fact (maybe something heavy dropped on them?). Then to add insult to injury I hear that it is some sort of good thing that Daniel is gone - a new character adding newness. Have these people got a brain? Not only do they insult the best character in Stargate SG-1, but they insult the viewers who have been loyal to the show over the years. If they want a new audience they’re welcome to it, because as a member of the old, unwanted, audience I don’t think I’ll be tempted to a Daniel-free season. If they come to their senses then I’m happy to forgive and forget - if not then bye bye Stargate, it was great knowing ya!
