Jonas Quin SO much should have been a regular character after his year of Internship during Micheal Shank's (And Doctor Jackson's) 'Vacation/Ascension" - Maybe this is partially due to the cheapness of The Sci-Fi Channel, which canceled their Landmark Original Series "Farscape" because they could not afford both that show and SG-1. I feel it was less of that they could not afford it, but that they WOULD not afford it.
Consequently, Sci-Fi could not or would not afford to pay both Micheal Shanks and Corin Nemec, but they would not do it is all. I think this bad decision came back to bite them in the Arse in their 9th and 10th seasons, even though SciFi had actually added the two principal actors from Farscape (Ben Bowder and Claudia Black) to the crew of SG-1.
Season 6 was my favorite SG-1 season, lots of good things happened in that season, culminating with the destruction of Abydos at the hands of Anubis and the ascension of all Abydonians by Oma.
Despite my irritation at having a new character I just spent a year with being outed, I appreciated that they gave the Character of Jonas Quinn several episodes of Closure, and this final one - At least the last Quinn episode I ever saw, I don't know if there are more... Was actually written by Corin Nemec himself.
It was not until a year after the Quinn story had ended that I met a couple who stayed with me for 3 months, which ended up being Corin's cousin. All I can say about that was that his family was very proud of him for being able to have that great part. Previously, the only time I ever saw him was in the movie "Solar Crisis" which is shown on Sci Fi late at night, he plays Charleton Heston's grandson.
In this SG-1 episode, he puts a bow on the story of the Kelownans and puts a nice ribbon on it as well, even writes himself a semi-happy ending as he gates out with the chick-who-was-a-Go'Aould in tow.
If Quinn appeared in any later episodes, I missed them. It was a mistake not having Quinn show up in the final two Stargate stories, "Continuum" and "Ark of Truth". The Kelowna story was integral for at least three seasons of SG-1, especially because the substance called NaQuaDria only came from that planet, and every Snakehead System Lord and their mothers and Jaffa's were after that stuff. And Quinn was right in the middle of that story, it was his story. And season 6 and Three episodes of Season 7 tell it, and I'm hoping there are more that I totally missed.
