The One Stargate Death SG-1’s Creator Still Regrets
By WITNEY SEIBOLD
Dr. Janet Fraiser was a recurring character since the fifth episode of "Stargate SG-1." She was usually seen at the military sick bay, where she would treat wounds.
In the show's seventh season, Dr. Fraiser died after being shot. Creator Brad Wright explained on Reddit that they killed the character thinking it was the final season.
Usually, a major character is killed only after the writers have run out of ideas. Had Dr. Fraiser died near the end of the series, it might have felt more dramatic.
Wright was upset to learn that "Stargate" was going to be renewed for three additional seasons after Dr. Fraiser died, making her death seem abrupt and incidental.
