But you were exactly right. His character was deepened. That was the point of the storyline. I don't know where the idea came from that they wrote it to make fans dislike Methos. I've never heard that before and I've been in the fandom from first run. It doesn't even make sense.
David loved the character. Peter loved the character. Peter says the storyline came out of a wonderful give and take between himself and the writers. He would put something out there in his acting. They would see what he was doing and spin the character into a new direction. He would take that and do something interesting with it. He thought it was wonderful.
And he still talks about how awesome it was to read the script and know that he was going to get to play that...he couldn't even ride a horse and it didn't matter. That was their problem. He was amazed and very pleased.
