MacGyver

[Instab]

MACGYVER, a reimagining of the classic series, is an action-adventure drama about 20-something Angus “Mac” MacGyver, who creates a clandestine organization within the U.S. government where he uses his extraordinary talent for unconventional problem solving and vast scientific knowledge to save lives. Joining his team on high-risk missions around the globe is maverick former CIA agent Jack Dalton and Patricia Thornton, ex-field agent turned director of operations and Riley Davis, an unpredictable computer hacker with a chip on her shoulder. At home, MacGyver is entertained by his ambitious roommate, Wilt Bozer. Under the aegis of the Department of External Services, MacGyver takes on the responsibility of saving the world, armed to the teeth with resourcefulness and little more than bubble gum and a paper clip.

I doubt this will last an entire season!

and why?

[molosse]

I guess yoco makes a reference to the fantastic original series.
But most of today's viewers don't know the original series, so they won't be outraged. It may well last a season if not more.

Did you watch original show? It was amazing, even thou it look stupid. I was just a kid and I loved it. This one look completely garbage!

[slikrapid]

the original was good only for his improvisation skills, but that got old rather fast - the rest was forgettable/cheesy

I watched it when I was kid and I loved it.
These days, we have tons of news TV shows that are good or better. If they do it right, The new one can great to watch.
Time will tell (soon).

I hope the new one will be very good, the trailer looks amazing. I also watched the old one as a kid, every sunday. Let's not forget the awesome main theme by Rush
