And, once we actually sat down in a room and talked over some things, those things were resolved instantaneously. So, the situation I'm coming back to is a bit of a unique circumstance from the one [in which I left], and that's the main point. Nobody bent over backwards; MGM wasn't over a barrel, nor was I coming back with a cap in hand. It was more like the situation changed and they said, 'hey, what do you think about this? For me, on a more personal level, I would say the acceptance of the character and the expression of sentiment towards the character was a factor in me deciding to come back.
From this, you can deduce that he perhaps did not take Stargate very seriously and wanted something that felt more artistic. I actually see it in his portrayal. He rushes his words sometimes, not recognizing the depth of them. I can understand. From my perspective, as a gay man having to portray a character on a show with grated mentality toward sexuality He didn't realize the authenticity of Stargate.
Yes, it's formulaic and ridiculous, but much of Stargate is revelation and if you respect the ascension plot and recognize the truth of our universe, Stargate is educating people on a reality that nothing else in our culture even acknowledges.
The irony being now he's on that Hope show. Anyway the actor It's not how he feels so i think it's clear that Shanks felt Stargate is a little silly and wanted to be involved with something a little more emotion based.
If he really wanted to push it why not ask them to write in Daniel falling in love with a being that is not male or female. It's no queer as folk, but it's a step. Sign up to join this community.

Jenayah Others have answered the question below, I just wanted to add that his decision to take a break made the storyline even cooler, as it made possible more investigation of the Ancients and then the Season 8 finale where he temporarily re-ascends to meet Anubis in the diner. Those episodes were two of my favourite on the series.
We see him as a different person and how his life and the Stargate cross paths all the time, how he has to deal with that and what it means at the end. Daniel, in these lives, acts as a type of a spirit guide to direct Teal'c, pushing him to a place where he can reconcile what the journey is about. They're demanding because you're constantly asking what's going on and then you're hooked. It's like The Sixth Sense. You don't know what's real and what's not anymore.
To me, that's a thinking man's drama, and I really appreciate the more emotional, intelligent episodes that we do. He encourages the people to fight with Anubis, who is hunting the Eye of Ra, the last missing piece of the six powerful Eyes held by Goa'uld. We go back to the beginning of the Stargate story and go through a similar battle process with the evil forces of the alien. I always love taking the story back to Abydos because Daniel has a strong relationship with the people there.
We managed to include a great location in Vancouver. The shoot has a great film look. He trusts Anubis' word not to attack Abydos if he gives him the Eye of Ra. It was part of my original thought process, too. I was thinking; yeah, what is he believing this guy for? But he's not. I realized that after a second read of the script. He's not trusting Anubis, he's saying that making this deal will allow his friends to escape with the tablet so that they can find the lost city.
He's already told the system lord that Anubis is there. They will come to create a distraction while Daniel tries to get his friends out and save the people on Abydos. Daniel also wants to actually confront Anubis one on one. He knows if we find the tablet it will lead us to the lost city where the weapons are that can destroy Anubis.
I think that he believes in keeping Anubis' trust in that particular moment. Daniel will do wherever it takes to get this Eye that will allow his friends to escape and possibly the people on Abydos. In this episode, he is darker and more determined than he was before. He thought the Ancients that reside in the higher plane had a holy power over every existence.
He thought he had chosen the right path to help humans and the world. I wanted to be more specific, and it just seemed to cause more hurt feelings. Michael Shanks may not have realized how beloved Daniel Jackson was. The character was very passionate, so maybe he would attract people who share that trait.
It seems as if he was able to reconcile his creative differences with the crew, and missed playing the role. John Wolfe Linkedin.
