Creativity is dead.

I would argue creativity isn't dead. MacGyver was fun, but it hasn't aged well and had some pretty hokey premises. A reboot that is less hokey and hopefully isn't full of anti gun propaganda could be pretty good. Remember sometimes a really good character has a lot of life in it. A prime example is all the myriad of retellings of the Sherlock Holmes character. Some of which have been exceptionally good in print or on screen. Is creativity dead if people keep telling Sherlock Holmes stories different ways? No, if anything it's quite entertaining. Same thing with MacGyver. I want to see a well done reboot with less camp and propaganda.

Any body with a drop of mechanical aptitude thought Macgyver sucked ass.

Fucking built bombs out of baking soda and tooth paste.....what the fuck.

I think I watched two episodes the last straw was when he lost brakes careening down a windy canyon road. He pops the hood doing like 80mph. It rips clean off(of Course) he hops out the driver window cuts the power steering hose and fills the master cylinder...returns to the driver seat and stops the car....

Fucking Kidding me.....???????.

Unbeleivable garbage.
