Watching the show. Mac was always humble but the new Mac is arrogant. Ruined it.
I tried to give it a shot, but this show is just terrible. The writing is awful and this new Mac is not good.
The brainy things MacGyver does to get out of sticky situations, well they are things that aren't too special. Like mixing alcohol and fire or knowing a paper clip can unlock handcuffs. This MacGyver doesn't do anything too special. Michael in Burn Notice was more MacGyver like.
How did this crap got a 2nd season when good series are being canceled is beyond me. In the 1st episode they just took everything MacGyver stood for and burned it while pissing on the flames. Mac abhorred violence and would never kill. That was a nice distonction from any other action series. This imposter... just sucks. Avoid it like the plague because no one will give you back the time you waste watching this steaming pile of poo.
Typical American show. The writers create a world-wide problem to be solved by Americans. Whether or not the problem actually starts in the USA doesn't matter, because Americans always save the day.
