INTERVIEW: Torri Higginson (Dr. Elizabeth Weir)

Originally posted by Torri HigginsonSo many of the episodes I was just there in the background, which wasn't challenging for me. And I think they're going "Why are we paying this chick when she's only in for a couple of scenes?" You know what I mean? It made a lot of sense, I thought. That's how I hypothesize it. It makes a lot of sense for me.
For me, it's a good move because I would rather be somewhere and be working than dipping my toes in every once in a while. That's what I meant by it. It all worked out for the best

It's pretty sad that say, Battlestar Galactica's writers can continually develop and explore their thirteen or so main characters all the while bringing secondary characters to the forefront, yet Stargate Atlantis couldn't find anything for their lead actress to do.
There's a ridiculous wealth of material to explore in both Altantis the show and Atlantis the city that would have given Torri some great stuff to chew on. It's really too bad that the writers continually refuse to explore internal drama amongst the expedition's members and wider story arcs that would facilitate the participation of non-combatant, non-scientist characters. I suppose episodes about whales and cheesy Alien remakes are more important than character focus, though.
Great interview, though! She really is sweet, isn't she?

I think Torri was extremely gracious in her interview and it was good to hear her speak out.
At the same time, I am very disappointed to see her go. I think that the character had much more potential than just a scene or two in an episode, and could be more than simply background. I think at one point in her interview she mentioned how loyal TPTB were to the SG-1 cast and how that was a good thing. However, I am disappointed that my current perception is that that same loyalty does not extend to those in the SGA cast.
Torri is a wonderful actress and I look forward to seeing her in other works. I think in her actions and her attitude she exudes nothing but pure class, as can be seen in her interview.
