After rewatching and enjoying the true last MacG episode "The Stringer" I did a little research on the actor who played MacG's son in the episode. I hope I am not repeating another thread as everything seems to be so well covered. With only a couple of acting credits listed in the last 10 years this is what he appears to be up to. DALTON JAMES James is currently a golf pro at GolfTEC Pasadena. He has taught over 3800 lessons with GolfTEC. Understudied Brady Riggs, Top 100 Golf Digest. Certified Nakashima Club Fitter. Do you think we could hire him as a caddy or get a couple of lessons? Think he carries the Wenger Swiss Army Golf Tool to fix those embarassing divits? Oh, Man!

Before the crash of the site I made up a list once of nearly every actor that has been on Mac to check out what they've been doing. Some of them only did their part on a Mac episode and were never heard or seen again. Than you might be surprised what became of them.

Other example is Austin St. John (which we all know as the legendary Red Power Ranger Jason). One time everybody's hero, every kid wanting to be the Red Ranger, now I heard (a little while back though) he became a paramedic.

Like Dent says in High Control: 'Funny how things work out!'

It's not just MacG actors. One of my favorite soap opera films was "The Interns" based on a popular 50's novel. It featured James MacArthur, Cliff Robertson, Telly Savalas, Buddy Ebsen and a host of others. Another young actor mostly known for TV roles was one of "The Interns" but not one in a major role. Actor Brian G. Hutton left acting and became a big time Hollywood Director with film like "Kelly's Heroes" (Clint Eastwood and an all star cast) and "Where Eagle's Dare" with Clint E again and Richard Burton. Both these films big successful large budget war films. He made a few more films and finally directed Tom Selleck in "High Road to China" in 1983. Then he quit movies and became a plumber. Got a back up in the bathroom? Call the Director. A movie based on his life could be self directed and called "Where Plumber's Dare". I'd probably go see it.

I remember Dalton James was in a show called Crossroads, and it kind of felt like it was inspired by the ending of MacGyver. Basically it was about a father and son, who haven't been in touch with each other for a long time, traveling around the country on their motorcycles while trying to get re-acquainted.
