That beard on Mac will touch the ground by then
Maybe they're recreating the unaired pilot that had MacGyver being a prisoner of war for 5 years
Can you imagine a mask over THAT? He must look like Barnacle Bill swimming into one floating in the ocean.
It would be at least more realistic than the clean-shaven face he was sporting in the Unaired Pilot Trailer. Those terrorists must have been okay with their prisoners shaving regularly

A lot of the upcoming shows with a premiere in November will make the pandemic a part of their storylines. Namely medical shows (e.g. The Good Doctor), but also crime shows (SWAT). How do you feel about that?
Personally, I'd prefer "non-covid shows" as a form of escapism but at the moment, I'm just happy we're getting new material at all. And thankfully, with the 6 leftover episodes of MacGyver filmed before the shutdown, I'm fine with it even if they decide to bring it into the episodes that are going to get filmed soon.

WoW I hope it’s true, in that case, if it’s November 11 it’ll soon confirm that in the next few days.
If they really start filming in 10 days, we should see some activity within the next few days (e.g. opening up the stages, costume fittings etc.).
It might be reduced (e.g. they might send in the Stand-Ins for all fittings instead of the regular cast), but I really hope they show us some BtS stuff so we know they're still on track.

They might feel the need to bring it in if their scripts are affected by it. Like to explain why their characters are all 6 feet apart.
I think it's an interesting idea to bring it into medical shows, less certain about other genres, because like you said, escapism
Yeah. I think shows like MacGyver wouldn't need it, but it might also depend on the safety protocols.
To me, it would make more sense if they continue the ongoing storyline without another time jump. I think NCIS handles it with jumping back in time for a while to finish up an older storyline.
And yeah, might be weird on some shows if the team is suddenly standing 6 feet apart all the time and all relationships broken off-screen . Though with regular testing, standing near each other for the regular cast is not "forbidden". I guess they could keep Meredith safe with her calling in from the War Room instead of a ton of briefings in person with the entire team there.

Indeed small "signs" are always welcome, but with the virus the whole production (and many others) have their shooting dates staggered.

I used get excited but now I'm dreading it with this whole triangle thing happening or about to happen. I can't be happy about the whole Mac/Riley that could happen.

I think the whole triangle thing might have been exaggerated... to get hits and people to tune in; expecting something juicy
