Richard Dean Anderson (MacGyver) is Awesome!

The original show is rated about twice as well as the remake. Do you think that is scientists saying "That's not how this works! That's not how any of this works!"? or fans of the original series asking "You call this MacGyver?!"

You guys probably know him from General Hospital. Don't lie!

As I mentioned elsewhere, he was in "Stargate: SG1." Of course he was in the spin-offs "Atlantis" and "Etcetera." There were also some Stargate and MacGyver movies and he starred in other movies that do not sound familiar.

As I mentioned [elsewhere] he starred in the short-lived "Legend" with John de Lancie. I do not know why I thought the latter died last year, but I was happy to learn that he was still around.

I have wanted to watch the show for a while, but could not find it anywhere, so I ordered it on DVD. Apparently they cheaped out and compressed the video excessively to save a disc.

I set up my desktop and 43" 4k television in my office so that I could write progress reports and received a notification for some video. I was still getting everything ready, so I thought that I would watch some of it at double speed.

Instead I watched:


Anderson has portrayed some of my favorite characters and seems like a great guy. He comes across as a wonderful and appreciative person and I think that it is cool that the Air Force gave him an honorary medal, a tour of the Pentagon, etc.

Wash your hands and stay safe!
