10 Best Minor Stargate SG-1 Characters

9. Robert Kinsey (Ronnie Cox)

Stargate Thor
MGM

A troublesome bad guy who would go on to crop up every now and again, Senator Robert Kinsey first appeared at the end of the first season. He was there to facilitate a clip-show, where he would review the actions of SG-1 and the SGC at large, determining that they were too risky to continue funding. His arrogance led to the shutting down of the SGC, but it wouldn't be long before they were back on their feet.

Kinsey would go on to ally himself with the NID, a rogue organisation that was stealing alien technology from Earth's new allies. He would be seen in an alternate future as having fulfilled his political ambitions to become President of the United States. In season 7 he became the Vice President and tried to enact a regime change at the SGC, never missing an opportunity to screw over our heroes.

With that political slimy sheen over his career, it was no surprise when Kinsey met his untimely end. A great recurring bad guy.

Still bitter that Star Trek Enterprise got canned and almost old enough to angrily tell the kids to 'Get Off My Lawn!'
