I've already seen him on The West Wing and another movie.

Hi simply felt it was time to move on and try other things. I’ve heard he has or will appear in The West Wing in U.S I’m not sure if the episode has aired yet."Love is not for life, it's for one week only" Wass

I spotted him in a SciFi movie, Atomic Train. He played a General in that too. He hasn't expanded his horizons too, far as of yet.

I saw him in another movie recently, but I think it was pre-SG1. So he's still acting, but trying other roles?Comment

Don stated at the time that he felt the time had come for him to do the things he wanted to do in life, other projects, as he was getting on in years and didn't have much time left to fit everything in.
Paraphrasing, but that was the gist of it. Time grows short.
I don't think he ever intended to give up acting entirely - just cut down on the time it took out of his life as a whole, leaving him time to do other family and personal projects that had been on his list to do for some years.
I think the movie and guest spots on other shows are just him keeping his hand in, doing bits of acting as he feels he wants to fit them into his schedule, rather than being tied down to a recurring role on a series, which obviously takes more time.
He has done guest spots too for SG1 and Atlantis since leaving the show and this fits in with wanting to cut back on acting, but not leave it entirely.

Listen, we had General Ryan come on and do a little cameo for us, and he's a real live four star, one of the big guys. And I had to ask him point blank, because there's a certain irreverence that I bring to the character, and denseness, but while we were doing this scene, I just looked at him and said, "Do you have guys like me in...?" and he stopped me and said, "Yes, and worse, and you're doing a fine job, son."

I imagine that even if he wasn't in each episode a lot, being a regular on SG1 did mean he didn't have the opportunity to do other things. His schedule would be pretty fixed.Comment

I also seem to recall there being some health concerns which may have contributed to Don deciding it was time to move on. Plus, ya know, he has a new wife to look after.
I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.Comment

He was a great character.......but I see RDA is on the same track. I wish them both best wishes.Two apples get you nothing unless your buying a banana.

7-8 years is a lot of time out of someone's life, especially with the hours involved in making a series like Stargate.Comment

yea, 7+ years is a long time. that's why i was suprised that we even have most of the original cast. think about ER which has lasted 11 seasons. i think they have only one of the original cast members.Save us from danger, save us from evilServatis a periculum, Servatis a maleficumComment

Don spoke about it at Burbank. He was ready, and the storyline changing. They had planned to end in S7, hence Dr Frazer's death. Then S8 occured, but they had already ended contracts. Don also wanted to spend some more time in US and continue to work on this painting, which he planned to have a show of in 2005/6.The very young, do not always do what they are told.
