Related DVD Comments/Information

Another new character [for Millennium's second season] was computer wizard Brian Roedecker, played by Allan Zinyk, who had been in Darin Morgan's X-FILES episode "Jose Chung's `From Outer Space.'" Roedecker was a sarcastic wisecracker created to serve as an occassional foil for the humorless Frank. Fans did not take kindly to Roedecker, who came across to them as a knock-off of THE X-FILES' Lone Gunmen and totally out of place on MILLENNIUM. "I was surprised by the rejection of Roedecker," [Glen] Morgan admitted, adding that he wished the fans had given the character more time before pronouncing judgement. Roedecker remained a favorite with Morgan, however, and he and Wong were disappointed when Zinyk left the show to fulfill another acting commitment.

"The Mikado" marked the last appearance of Roedecker, a character the writer of this episode (Michael R. Perry) had loved from the beginning. "Frank and his colleague Peter Watts are accustomed to dealing with the macabre, so as a viewer you think they're much cooler than you are. They don't have to flinch; they're tough guys. What I like about Roedecker in this episode is that he becomes an advocate for the audience. Roedecker is able to express the revulsion, the tears, that Frank has to constantly hold back. For the first time, Roedecker has a chance to see this is what Frank and Peter do all the time. It makes Frank seem grander because, if nobody in an episode reacts to the gruesome and macabre things that are around, they don't seem so terrifying."
