Choose a TV show.. then link it to MacGyver in 6 connections or less.

We can probably avoid the obvious SG-1, happy days, knight rider, ST:TNG single connections.

Heres some of mine:

Dukes of hazzard stared John Schneider.
John voiced a charecter in King of the Hill
King of the Hill had a character voiced by Lane Smith.
Lane Smith starred in Lois and Clark with Teri Hatcher.
Teri Hatcher played Penny Parker in MacGyver

Viper starred Sydney Walsh who also made an appearence in an episode of Lois & Clark which starred Teri Hatcher who played Penny Parker in MacGyver

Automan co-starred Heather McNair
Heather McNair co-starred in an episode of Knight Rider.
Knight Rider co-starred Patricia McPherson.
Patricia McPherson co-starred in an episode of MacGyver.

M*A*S*H starred Alan Alder who later starred in West wing

Ah yes! This classic game! biggrin.gif

Nice to see someone else remembers Automan! I love that show!
And if you want a different connection from The Dukes of Hazzard to MacGyver, you could also use Michael Des Barres, who guest starred on the "Wall of Sound" episode of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman- and of course, who also portrayed Murdoc on MacGyver!


Hmm... let's see if I can pair up some of my other favorite shows....

Here's a rather easy one.
Scott Bakula starred as Dr. Sam Beckett on Quantum Leap, with Teri Hatcher guest starring as Donna Elesee in the second episode!!! ("Star-Crossed")
Of course, Teri Hatcher also guest starred many times as Penny Parker on MacGyver!

Okay- Early Edition...
Someone actually once complimented Gary Hobson on a rescue by calling out "Way to go, MacGyver!"- but that doesn't really count.
However, Kyle Chandler showed up in a few episodes of Tour of Duty
Tour of Duty starred Ramon Franco
And Ramon Franco guest starred on the "Final Approach" episode of MacGyver! biggrin.gif sak.gif duct.gif

clapping.gif I think I actually found one that wasn't mentioned! (I'm terrible at these things since I don't actually watch much TV other than MacGyver!)

It's a short one:

Eric Close stars in Without a Trace. He also appeared in MacGyver as the security guard at the newspaper office in Prometheus Syndrome. wink.gif

Posted by: MacGyverGrrl 26 November 2006 - 09:27 PM

It was just one episode. I think he's saying a season 4 episode. Don't know where the 3 came from laugh.gif TYPO!

It was a car episode. ARRGH! ARRGH! ARRGH!. Bruce played a collector (Jay Leno type) and Tim screwed up and sold the hot rod to him without discussing it with the rest of the family (the boys helped him build it and were upset) and he had to try and get it back from him (Bruce)

smile.gif

Posted by: MacGyverOnline 27 November 2006 - 11:56 AM
yep I remember that.

They end up buying an old black car which then becomes the second street-rod project for Tim and Brad.

Bruce's character was a pizza tycoon who collected rods as a hobby.. I think?


Posted by: MacGirl 27 November 2006 - 06:05 PM
Can't believe no one's mentioned this one yet.. or if they have, I haven't seen it.

The X-Files starred Bruce Harwood as Byers, one of the Lone Gunmen. Harwood played Willis in several eppys of MacGyver.

I've got another one:

Northern Exposure featured Adam Arkin.
Arkin appeared in the "Invisible Killer" ep of MacGyver.

Posted by: MacGyver 14 December 2006 - 09:06 AM
Everyone keeps using Adam Arkin for this thing and I keep thinking of Alan Arkin, so here's one with Alan Arkin.

Alan Arkin was in The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause as Bud Newman with Tim Allen (as Santa Claus!)
Tim Allen starred in Home Improvement
Bruce McGill guest starred in a 4th. Season episode- and of course,
Bruce McGill was Jack Dalton on MacGyver!!! biggrin.gif

Okay, so you've got me started on Quantum Leap.

Of course you have already mentioned Teri Hatcher in Star Crossed.

Jason Priestly starred as "Pencil" in the episode The Camakazi Kid.

John Anderson starred as "Pat Knight" in The Last Gunfighter.

Also in The Last Gunfighter, there is a character named Ben Steiner. And the actor Ben Stein starred in the stolen helecopter episode of MacGyver (I don't know the episodes yet).

Oh, and Ben Stein was also in an episode of the Animaniacs. http://youtube.com/watch?v=OratYKWszU8

And that's all I can think of off the top of my head, and based on what's been posted here.

That episode was "Honest Abe".
And yeah- I'm a fan of Quantum Leap too- I knew about John Anderson and Bruce McGill and Teri Hatcher being on there... I'd forgotten about Jason Priestly though- nice catch.


Posted by: MacGyver 13 January 2007 - 08:31 AM
I just thought of another pretty obvious Quantum Leap and MacGyver connection that didn't dawn on me until just now.
Michael D. Roberts! smile.gif
He was in two episodes of Quantum Leap-
and two episodes of MacGyver!

He guest starred as Willis Trafford on "The Color of Truth" and as Isaac King on "The Leap Between the States" episodes of Quantum Leap-

And as Booker Wilson on "The Challenge" and Dr. Pierre Redemteur on "Walking Dead" episodes of MacGyver!

(Note- We can also use Michael D. Roberts to connect MacGyver to one of my favorite short-lived sci-fi shows- Manimal, on which he starred as Tyrone C. Earl) wink.gif


Posted by: MacNymph 13 January 2007 - 09:39 AM

oh oh... and Bring Em Back Alive!

And Automan, Tales of the Golden Monkey, Misfits of Science, Man From Atlantis, Street Hawk and Starman
biggrin.gif smile.gif
(So many great short-lived sci-fi shows that would be perfect for DVD release...maybe one day)

Posted by: SAK 24 January 2007 - 10:52 PM
Everybody Loves Raymond ---> MacGyver
Doris Roberts starred in Everybody Loves Raymond as Raymond's Mom (I'm guessing. I've never seen the show.)
Doris Roberts starred as Mildred Krebs in Remington Steele, alongside Pierce Brosnan, who starred as Remington Steele.
Pierce Brosnan starred as James Bond in Tomorrow Never Dies, alongside Terri Hatcher, who starred as Paris Carter.
Terri Hatcher starred as Penny Parker in MacGyver.

All this from someone who doesn't watch TV...

You can get "recorded from TV" copies on DVD from ebay and a few websites.

I don't see any of these ever making it to DVD.. they couldn't make it on TV, so don't see the studios spending money on DVD releases, so these TV copies might be the only versions we'll ever see.



Posted by: Amy 16 February 2007 - 07:13 PM
laugh.gif woohoo!!!! I actually found one!!! Well, hubby actually found one...but I get to post it!

Bruce McGill played some guy on tonight's episode of Numb3rs (don't ask me who, cuz I don't usually watch it...hubby does) and of course played Jack Dalton on MacGyver! I do have to say they guy looks pretty distinguished with gray hair...he even still had the mustache! laugh.gif

I have another one. About 3 weeks ago I was having another 2:00am insomnia thing going on and while channel surfing I came across a rather bad murder mystery starring Christopher Judge. Christopher was Teal'c on Stargate SG1 with RDA as Jack O'Neill. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the movie.

Okay, how about a 6-degree circle? Or actually a figure 8, if you want to be quite proper...

MacGyver---> MacGyver (with MacGyver in the middle)

Terri Hatcher starred as "Penny Parker" in MacGyver.
Terri Hatcher also starred as "Donna Eleese" in one episode of Quantum Leap.
Beverly Mitchell starred as "Becky Pruitt" in one episode of Quantum Leap.
Beverly Mitchell also starred as "Lucy Camden" in Seventh Heaven.
Catherine Hicks starred as "Annie Camden" in Seventh Heaven.
Catherine Hicks also starred as "Dr. Gillian Taylor" in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.

Della Reese starred as "Tess" in Touched by an Angel.

So there's your circle.

Where's the figure 8, you ask? Well the loop that makes it a figure 8 is George Takei, who starred as Dr. Shen Wei in an Episode of MacGyver! (The Wish Child)

Lost stars Terry O'Quinn
Terry O'Quinn co-starred in 7 episodes of The West Wing
The West Wing regularly co-starred Renee Estivaz.
Renee Estivaz co-stared in the "bush master" episode of MacGyver


It seems that The West Wing is a major link to many episodes, both old and new...

heres another example...

Reno 911 co-stared Thomas Lennon
Thomas Lennon guest-starred in 2 episodes of Friends
Friends co-starred Mathew Perry.
Mathew Perry guest-starred in a couple of episodes of The West Wing

So heres how it links to MacGyver

Coronation Street co-starred John Saint Ryan over several episodes.
John Saint Ryan also starred in General Hospital along with RDA
RDA starred as MacGyver

We can also use John Saint Ryan to link... SeaQuest DSV, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Babylon 5, Murder She Wrote, MANTIS and Gargoyles.

Have we actually done one yet for Kevin Bacon, the actor for whom this game was named?

Here's a pretty short chain.

Kevin Bacon made one of his earliest (if not, the earliest) appearances as Chip Diller in the 1978 movie "Animal House", which also starred Bruce McGill as Daniel Simpson "D-Day" Day

And of course, Bruce McGill also guest starred many times as Jack Dalton on MacGyver! smile.gif cool.jpg

All right, gang, I did some major brainstorming last night, and I've got a whole bunch for ya.

Emily Procter currently appears on CSI:Miami as Calleigh Duquesne.
She also appeared in The West Wing.
The West Wing starred Renee Estevez over several eppys.
Renee Estevez appeared in the Bushmaster eppy of MacGyver.
(Like Rocky, I'm an incurable 'Wing Nut'!)

The movie Ray had Richard Schiff in a small role.
Richard Schiff played Toby on TWW.

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip stars Bradley Whitford, who played Josh on TWW.

The movies Kiss of Death and Session 9 both starred David Caruso, who plays Horatio Caine on CSI:Miami, which leads back to the Emily Procter/TWW connection.

ER starred Khandi Alexander, who plays Dr. Alexx Woods on CSI:Miami, which again leads back to the Emily Procter/TWW connection.

NYPD Blue connects two ways: through David Caruso (see above) and through Jimmy Smits, who appeared in several eppys of TWW.

The movie City of Angels stars Nicholas Cage, who also appeared in Kiss of Death alongside David Caruso. By logical extension, that also connects every movie with Nicholas Cage back to MacGyver.

CSI:New York spun off of CSI:Miami (it started as the season 2 finale of Miami), so there's another connection for you.

The Sopranos starred Gary Sinise, Vanessa Ferlito, and Carmine Giovinazzo, all of whom appear on CSI:NY, again leading back to the CSI:Miami/TWW connection.

The movie Ransom, starring Mel Gibson, costars Gary Sinise, so that also leads back to the CSI:NY/CSI:Miami/TWW connection. By logical extension then, we can also connect every movie with Mel Gibson to MacGyver! (These are starting to get a little far afield, but this one is still only five steps.)

24 guest starred Vanessa Ferlito over several eppys. Vanessa Ferlito appeared in BOTH CSI:NY and The Sopranos.

The movies Stand By Me and Flatliners both featured Kiefer Sutherland, who also appears in 24, which also starred Vanessa Ferlito, which again leads back to the CSI:NY/CSI:Miami/TWW thread.

CSI connects two ways: through Paul Guilfoyle, who plays Detective Brass, and also appeared in the movie Session 9 with David Caruso. CSI also connects through Marg Helgenberger.

Family Ties also connects to MacGyver through Justine Bateman, who appeared alongside RDA in "In the Arms of a Stranger."

Oh, and of course, now we can also connect every movie with Martin Sheen in it to MacGyver, again through TWW.

Whew! How's that??

Superman Returns co-stared James Marsden as Richard White.

Shane Meier played a young MacGyver in the "Harry's Will" episode of MacGyver
Shane also appeared in an episode of SG-1 alongside RDA
RDA was MacGyver

So you could say both MacGyvers have been in both shows laugh.gif

Christopher Eccleston Guessed stared on Heroes, He was also the 9th Doctor on Dr. Who.

The 3rd Doctor (1970-74) was played by Jon Pertwee, whom also played Olvander of Olvander wands in Harry Potter and the Scorer's Stone.

Maggie Smith Co-stared in Harry Potter (all) as Minerva McGonagall , she also Co-stared in Sister act as the Mother Superior (blanking on name).

Whoppi Goldberg Stared in Sister Act, she had a recurring role as Ginen(sp)in Star Trek: NG, John DeLnace also had a recurring role there as "Q". The man also did an episode of McGyver too,


Dose that work?

Posted by: MacGyverOnline 12 March 2007 - 08:17 PM
NO.

Because John Pertwee died in 1996.. Harry Potter was made in 2001.

Here's a few more... all involving our dear Dana Elcar:

Hill Street Blues guest starred Dana in 1 eppy.
This connects both directly to MacGyver, and also through the David Caruso/CSI:Miami string.

ER starred Dana in 1 eppy.
Again, a double connection: both directly, and also through the Khandi Alexander/CSI:Miami string.

Falcon Crest and Car 54 Where Are You each starred Dana in one or more eppys... a direct connection to MacGyver.

Finally, here's a really interesting one:
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers starred Dana in 1 episode, and ALSO starred Richard Dean Anderson!

Jerry Van Dyke starred on one of the least well-remembered shows ever- and considered by some to be one of the worst-"My Mother, the Car" (so I guess, you could techincally say "Knight Rider" was a rip off of this show- except that it was WAY WAY WAY cooler! biggrin.gif )
Nacho Galindo guest starred on "My Mother, the Car" as the second to portray Pedro.

Okay, here's a really cool one!

I'm gonna go it a bit backwards though...

Peter Egan guest starred as Frederick on the 1994 TV-movie "MacGyver: Trail to Doomsday", with Richard Dean Anderson in the title role as MacGyver, of course!
Peter Egan also guest starred on a British show that ran almost exactly 20 years before MacGyver did. And for the same amount of time- 7 years. From 1965 to 1972.

What's really ironic but really cool is the name of the show.
"The Troubleshooters".
But that's not all. Get this-
This show also starred Ray Barrett as "Peter Thornton"!!! biggrin.gif smile.gif

Here's another one that I don't think has been mentioned yet.

Northern Exposure starred both Adam Arkin and Anthony Edwards over several eppys apiece.

This leads to two connections:

Northern Exposure starred Adam Arkin over several episodes.
Adam Arkin starred in several eppys of TWW.
TWW also starred Renee Estevez over several eppys.
Renee starred in the Bushmaster eppy of MacGyver.

Anthony Edwards starred in ER.
ER also starred Dana Elcar in a few eppys.
Dana was our beloved Pete on MacGyver.

Well, this is kinda related- I just discovered an interesting connection between Bruce McGill and Wai Kulff! (Other than the obvious!) wink.gif
Both guest starred multiple times on MacGyver, of course-
but both also share an Indiana Jones connection!

Bruce McGill voiced the character of CIA Agent Simon Turner in the 1999 "Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine" video game
and Kai Wulff voiced the characters of Richter and Soldier 3 in the 2003 "Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb" video game! Just thought that was cool.

Okay- I dug this thread back out because I've been wanting to make a connection with a particular actress I keep finding on IMDB when I look for MacGyver.

Believe it or not, there's a real actress named Mary MacGyver! biggrin.gif
(http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1272435/)
Come on- I just gotta do this one! smile.gif

She's apparently only appeared in 1 production of any kind- the 1989 movie "Mind Trap"
She appeared in this with Lyle Waggoner, best known as Steve Trevor on "Wonder Woman"- but he also guest starred on an episode of "Hardcastle & McCormick"-

and Dana Elcar, Pete Thornton on "MacGyver", has also guest starred on "Hardcastle & McCormick".

Okay there you go- very tenuous connection, but there nonetheless! smile.gif

A long time ago, not necessarily in a galaxy far, far away, George Takei starred as Lt. Hikaru Sulu on Star Trek.
And of course, he also guest starred in "The Wish Child" episode of MacGyver, thus connecting William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForrest Kelley, Nichelle Nichols, Walter Koenig and Majel Barrett with MacGyver- and of course, James Doohan (Montgomery "Scotty" Scott) adds to the connection by guest starring as Speedy on "Harry's Will".

I actually found one! smile.gif It's for a movie, tho...and I don't have names... LOL...so it probably barely counts!

The old guy from Faith Hope and Charity was the pastor in The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. Oddly enough, I didn't see the character listed in the credits to catch his real name.

Wonder woman (the old series) starred Lynda Carter


Um, you mean the [B]only series? tongue.gif wink.gif

And by the way- Lynda Carter is definitely still and always will be Wonder Woman!
(Just as much as Christopher Reeve is always Superman as far as I'm concerned.)

no I mean the series which starred Linda Carter.. not the one with Cathy Lee Crosby which was produced the previous year.

I'll use the correct name of "The New Original Wonder Woman" so as to save any more confusion.

Posted by: MacGyver 2 December 2007 - 02:45 PM
Well, the Cathy Lee Crosby production was actually just a TV-movie that didn't really go anywhere. Hmm- I wouldn't have thought most people would even remember that one. I'd still like to see it someday, but I can't imagine anyone other than Ms. Carter in the Wonder Woman role now after having seen the series. smile.gif

It sure is! Two great shows, with (seemingly) a million connections. I love it!!

Here's one I just discovered:

The HBO movie Live From Baghdad (the true story of the CNN team that covered the '91 Gulf War from inside Baghdad itself... and was the ONLY news team still in the city when the war started) starred Bruce McGill! Bruce, of course, was the ever-lovable Jack Dalton on MacGyver.

Davis, Dale Wilson, George Josef, Campbell Lane, Garwin Sanford, Ellen Bry, Ted Stidder, Rob Morton, Doug Tuck, & Raimund Stamm. All of whom appeared on MacGyver.

HOW ABOUT A LEVERAGE ONE plus that of Star Trek: The Next Generation?

Well, Timothy Hutton is Nate Ford from Leverage
directed by Jonathan Frakes who is Commander William Riker from Star Trek: The Next Generation
who had John DeLancie as guest star (he played Q)
and he did guested several times in MacGyver.

Tim Hutton was the lead star of 1981's Taps
and Tom Cruise was his co-star (so was Sean Penn).
That comes to the Top Gun/ER connection
(plus that of A Few Good Men, Jerry Maguire and the Mission Impossible movies) to MacGyver.

Wil Wheaton guest started three times on Leverage
(and is a regular guest on The Big Bang Theory,
which leads us to yet another MacGyver connection through Sheldon's "girlfriend")
which Jonathan Frakes is directing.
He's from TNG too (he played Wesley Crusher)
and that leads us to MacGyver yet again through John DeLancie.

More now:

Star Trek:Deep Space Nine started Avery Brooks as Captain (formerly Commander) Benjamin Sisko,
with Nana Vistor playing Bajoran officer Major Kira Nerys.
She guest stared in a few episodes of MacGyver.

Star Trek Voyager started Kate Mulgrew as Captain Kathryn Janeway
with Robert Picardo as the Emergency Medical Hologram
(he guest started on that role in Star Trek: First Contract, directed by Jonathan Frakes, leading us back to the TNG connection).
He also guest started in several episodes of Stargate SG1
with no else than Robert Dean Anderson who is... MacGyver.
(He's also on Stargate Atlantis)

BTW this also leads us to the Boston Legal link since Jeri Ryan also plays Seven of Nine in Voyager.

Posted by: JMRAMOSSG01 3 July 2012 - 05:34 PM
Thus, through the connections started earlier, we can now link Leverage to MacGyver.

One more thing: Leonard Nimoy stared in Mission Impossible as Paris,
leading us to Star Trek: The Original Series and its MacGyver links
with two of the "Big 7" (James Doohan and George Takei) guest staring on the show. MacG.gif

Posted by: JMRAMOSSG01 3 July 2012 - 06:01 PM
Brent Spiner plays LTCDR Data in Star Trek: The Next Generation and in all 4 TNG movies.
TNG had John DeLancie as a guest star

It's a great episode. He played the King of Romania IIRC. I think it's in Season 2. It also features Nanci Chambers (who later played Lt Singer, the resident evil) as the villain.

Can't believe no one's mentioned this one yet.. or if they have, I haven't seen it. 

The X-Files starred Bruce Harwood as Byers, one of the Lone Gunmen.  Harwood played Willis in several eppys of MacGyver.

You can also link the X-Files to MacGyver through Mitch Pileggi, who was Skinner on the X-Files as well as the commander of the Daedalus on Stargate Atlantis, in which RDA also made several guest appearances.

Well, the new Dallas on TNT also has Mitch Pileggi as well who was COL. Steve Cadwell in SGA, where RDA made a few appearances as a guest star.

This is a bit like a game we play on long car journeys, except that we specify 2 actors at the start and have to find films that link them together. The winner is the one who links the actors with the least number of films.

For example:
Sylvester Stallone to Robert Downey Jr.

1. Stallone was in Tango and Cash with Kurt Russell
2. Kurt Russell was in Escape from New York with Harry Dean Stanton
3. Harry Dean Stanton was in Avengers Assemble with Robert Downey Jr.

or...

1. Stallone was in The Expendables with Jason Statham
2. Jason Statham was in Snatch with Brad Pitt
3. Brad Pitt was in Mr & Mrs Smith with Angelina Jolie
4. Angelina Jolie was in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow with Jude Law
5. Jude Law was in Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr.

First one wins because it's shorter.


Want to give it a try?
How about Richard Dean Anderson to Alan Rickman?
