I absolutely loved Don S. Davis, and I was really sad to hear the news of his passing. Interestingly enough, one of his last projects was "Wyvern", and I actually saw that movie the night it premiered . It was odd seeing him in something that wasn't SG (as I got so used to seeing him as General Hammond).
It's has been 4 years already.... he died in an Olympic year.
Wow, it really seems like it was not too long ago. He was a great actor who clearly had an impact on so many people. No matter how long it will be, he will always have a special place in the minds of so many people.
So I have been watching Twin Peaks for the first time. WOW! I have to say as little as Don S. Davis is in that series his acting performance blows away what he did in SG-1 and I love him in SG-1. Maybe it is just me, but that show suffers by not having his character in it more. I just think he is great and despite the fact he is playing someone close to General Hammond I feel they are miles apart, but equally great. I just think D.S.D. brings more interesting nuances to Major Briggs. Not that Hammond isn't interesting. I just think Briggs has more layers. I am so glad I decided to sit down and watch Twin Peaks. I have been pleasantly surprised by the show and shockingly surprised by how great D.S.D. is in it. So sad he has been gone for so long.
Aww seeing this thread makes me nostalgic for the times when SG1 was still on air and he was playing Stargates most beloved general. He brought a real warmth to the role that many actors can fail to achieve.

The best written female character on trek ever.
