Spoilers MacGYVER reboot review thread

- Start date
I'm out after the latest episode I think for a while. Surgery inside a car, and let's see using a wheel jack as a rib spreader. Oh boy.
I really enjoyed the episode last night. It seemed like an homage to the classic ep "Countdown" where Mac teams up with a bomb disposal friend to disarm a clever bomb on a cruise ship. I really liked the sentimental, philosophical monologues from Mac. They add a lot to the episode. Plus, we got some nice background on this rebooted MacGyver.
I'm almost tempted to try watching again, based on these. Except... Is MacGyver's annoying roommate still present?
Yes, the super annoying roommate is still present. He continues to be completely pointless. But the rest of the ep is good IMO.
That is very possible. In the quick glimpse that we got of the Ghost, he had a scar on his face, very similar to Murdoc's. So it is very possible.
Yeah I gave in and watched it again....... We had the episode with an old Russian bomb and Mac having to defuse said bomb with the help of one of its creators. It was a good episode.
Tonight a runaway train. I like watching Riley, I mean MacGyver.. I mean reasons.
Has the show got season 2 yet?
Has the show got season 2 yet?
Murdoc is supposed to be in the next episode.
So rather then invent a new character they reboot an old one.
Speaking of which why could they never kill Murdoc in the old show?
He was related to Wile E. Coyote.
That would explain a lot.
Of course Murdoc was bound to show up eventually. How many Sherlock Holmes remakes have not included Moriarty? How many Batman adaptations have left out the Joker?
Same reason as the Joker, Blofeld, the Master, etc.
Riley's backpack is rather cool. Is that an actual thing or made for the show?
