    Default Did Bra'tac survive by default?

    Am I the only one who as the seasons went on every time Bra'tac was there was a feeling of "this is it, this is the one, he's going down."? Don't get me wrong, he's one of my favorite characters and I'm glad he saw it through, but I feel like if there was a season 11 he was have surely died

    In "The Changeling", I thought it possible that Bra'tac could die, but other than that, not really.

    Every episode i saw him in after season 6 i thought this could be it. None of the guest actors were safe in SG1, quite a few were killed off over the years. But Bra'tac lives on. I liked his character as well, enjoyable banter with O'Neill.

    i felt that way too. i mean bra'tec was (is?) one of my fav characters, but i kept thinking he was going to get killed at some point and i was very surprised that he survived the show. but i guess had he been killed earlier in the show, teal'c would than leave sg-1 to lead the rebellion. so they had to keep him alive to keep teal'c a main character.

    I think that if Bra'tac were to be killed off, it would have been a Teal'c-centered episode. Really, Bra'tac has been the #2 Jaffa on the show after Teal'c. If they're going to kill him off, it would be as game changing as killing off Dr. Fraiser, no?

    Yeah I would think that Teal'c would go seeking revenge and be killed himself if Bra'tac would have died because Teal'c saw Bra'tac as a father and I think that if they were to kill off Bra'tac I would feel that Teal'c would have to die aswell

    It is rather refreshing not to have a character killed off. It seems so often that characters get killed off just to get them out of the way. It is refreshing to think of Bra'tac spending his days at the Jaffa equivalent of Palm Springs yelling at kids to stay off his lawn.

    Who have they killed off besides guest stars? Of all the central characters, the only ones whom come to mind are Doctor Frasier and Jacob Carter / Selmak. Granted, they weren't regulars, but they appeared far more frequently than most of the recurring protagonists.

    I think that QuantumIguana was referring in those first two sentences to characters on TV in general, not just to Stargate.

    No idea what you're talking about. Most shows I watch, characters only get killed off when the actors back out. The only exceptions I can think of are Jericho and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

    I once read a spoiler of Revolution that
    Spoiler:
    Bra'tac dies in the movie. I cried more than any of the good news also revealed in that spoiler.


    No idea if the information was any good or not.

    and lost (actually they killed off more characters than they didn't by the end of the show, not counting the afterlife thing).

    I never got past the first episode. The plane crash was so utterly unrealistic, I never tuned back in. When a plane is torn apart like that, survivors are minimal, most die on the scene, and those who do survive are seriously injured. Show me a real life plane crash that was as devastated as in the show with as many injury-free survivors as in the show, and I'll concede.
