Not just a trailer but new social media header and profile pics, also.<br /><br />Yes, I'll agree that the show will get a season renewal soon. The ratings are too good and the franchise too well known internationally to pass this up. I mean, it was one of the shows that sold best at least year's upfronts despite them only showing 20 minutes of a pilot episode they already knew they would scrap.DashboardOnFirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06415585943437200452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-64401640155273031892017-03-04T12:11:17.775-06:002017-03-04T12:11:17.775-06:00Interesting that they're gonna get Dr. Zito on...Interesting that they're gonna get Dr. Zito on the show. Once again, the actor has big shoes to fill to live up to W. Morgan Sheppard's standard. The villain you're thinking of from "The Assassin" is Piedra, another of my favorites.<br /><br />I've noticed that in February, CBS's promotion of both "MacGyver" and "Hawaii Five-O" has been generic and not episode-specific. They'll do this "MacGyver-McGarrett" play on words without any description of what the content of the upcoming episode is. They've even dispensed with previews of the next week's episode, at least up until last night with the crossover episode. Not surprising that the ratings have ticked down a bit given the generic promotion. <br /><br />I would still be shocked if the show didn't get renewed given the numbers it's pulling in on Friday nights. It's crazy how so many shows on network television these are getting as low as 2-3 million viewers, yet are still sometimes considered on the bubble for renewal even with those numbers.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04953380288384883179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-77695042280532410462017-03-04T07:36:19.375-06:002017-03-04T07:36:19.375-06:00Oh!

I remember when people talked about possible villains in the forums and besides Murdoc and "The Assassin" (don't remember his name), Dr. Zito was among the favorites. <br /><br />I'm not perfectly happy about the take on New Murdoc, so I really hope for an amazing Dr. Zito.DashboardOnFirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06415585943437200452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-92184264225759912452017-03-03T20:19:18.681-06:002017-03-03T20:19:18.681-06:00It would be interesting if they could get Mark She...It would be interesting if they could get Mark Sheppard (son of Morgan, the original Dr. Zito).
