Macgyver Macgyver Macgyver the movie or a new show

AAh one of the greatest shows in the 80's well i got great news for all you fans out there
Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-NUH, nuh, nuh, nuh... You might be hearing that catchy MacGyver theme song at your local multiplex before long. Hot studio New Line Cinema ("The Lord of the Rings," "Austin Powers," "Rush Hour") has patched together a deal to create a feature film based on the hit '80s TV series. From 1985 to 1992, undercover agent MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson) battled the bad guys using paperclips, aspirin and other everyday objects that, thanks to the miracles of science, ended up defusing bombs, sending distress signals, and other cool stuff. And he never once needed a gun. Anderson, now 52 and starring in the "Stargate SG-1" sci-fi series, isn't expected to return as the mono-named, mullet-coiffed hero in the big screen project. But the Hollywood Reporter, which broke the story, predicts he'll get at least a cameo
or the show on wb which will be out soon
Young MacGyver, planned for fall 2003 on the WB network, will tell the story of the original hero's nephew, a twentysomething young fellow who ingeniously foils bad guys just like Uncle did. But "Our MacGyver will be a little more irreverent than the original," promises WB executive Carolyn Bernstein.

Rabin105,
I also love the show and recently found out that Nick at Night TV Land is showing the reruns. I watched one last week where Mac had to disarm a missle from a downed plane that was being guarded by some Chinese soldiers. He also rescued the pilot. During their getaway Mac picked up an AK47 and actually fired a few rounds before handing the gun to the pilot. I couldn't tell if he aimed at the soldiers or just made some noise, but I was shocked to see him with the gun. Must have been a very early episode.

By the way, do you know his first name??

Angus and i will watch both the movie and new show good new about the show WB promises they will do everything in there power to make the new macgyver as mouch as the old macgyver as they can so i'm happy to hear that :) though i doubt it will be as good ;)

Selma and Patty will be thrilled!!!!

[Dances w/PURPLE]

He could pull off a movie. Richard Dean Anderson is a hotty, aside from that, the shows were somewhat BONDish which made it a bit thrilling.

My vote goes for a feature film.

[Rabin105]
