There's 1 ep from s5 that I can't stand. I think I even watched it twice to make sure it wasn't just a kneejerk - and it didn't improve. I don't know if the story was bad, or if it just wasn't to my tastes.<br /><br />The story arc for s9-10 is less interesting to me, though I do admit a smidge of bias b/c RDA was gone from the show by then. However, the stories had started to slip a little by that point anyway. In s9 they intro'd a new set of 'bad guys' and brought in additional main cast members and the cast didn't seem to have the same chemistry.<br /><br />And the final episode was rather disappointing. (I actually had to go read the ep description to remember what it even was.)Highlander_IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390532917085374247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-69848805293331220512015-04-03T23:33:06.712-05:002015-04-03T23:33:06.712-05:00Another excellent set of responses from a crew mem...Another excellent set of responses from a crew member. I bet there were a lot of stressful days on the set of a show like "MacGyver" being a producer in charge of keeping things within budget. Hard to imagine putting in those kinds of hours and then only getting a couple weeks off in June. I'm sure there were a few more weeks in summer that weren't as intense as the middle of the season but it's easy to see why everybody was ready to move on when the series approached its end.<br /><br />I figured there'd be at least one story of a "dream guest who got away". Interesting that there wasn't. Nice to have the Wes Tansey mystery solved too. I'll have to forage through those early season credits to look for Tansey as a key grip.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04953380288384883179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-40756071971776174702015-04-03T23:27:28.911-05:002015-04-03T23:27:28.911-05:00Few episodes that you found really bad or that jus...Few episodes that you found really bad or that just weren't a good fit for you for whatever reason?Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04953380288384883179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-42453192361103442992015-04-03T23:15:11.214-05:002015-04-03T23:15:11.214-05:00I like them both.

Overall, I like MacGyver a little better - there aren't any eps of Mac that I refuse to watch, whereas, w/ SG1, there are a few that I think I've only seen once.Highlander_IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390532917085374247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-28622927887628894922015-04-03T23:02:14.446-05:002015-04-03T23:02:14.446-05:00Do you prefer SG-1, MacGyver, or the same?Do you prefer SG-1, MacGyver, or the same?Nicholas Sweedohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00437092592253460266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-25094810908012766072015-04-03T22:57:57.362-05:002015-04-03T22:57:57.362-05:00He's a really nice guy. =)

I think I made 5 or 6 trips to Vancouver for Gatecon and, while I did meet lots of celebs, I made lots of friends too. *g*<br />Highlander_IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390532917085374247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-32559810128029447952015-04-03T22:55:21.887-05:002015-04-03T22:55:21.887-05:00Awesome that you got to meet him!

Though, it took me like 8 yrs to get his autograph b/c he had to split early the first year I was there. =(<br /><br />The last time I was at Gatecon, on the way home, I saw him and Jay in the airport at god-awful-o'clock in the morning. We all looked like we needed about 18 more hours of sleep. /o\Highlander_IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390532917085374247noreply@blogger.com
