Video of the whole Opening Ceremony at the Monte Carlo Television Festival. It's about 2,5 hours long and no, I didn't watch it all ;-)

But a few markers I found while looking through if you're interested (there could be more, of course):

0:23:00 Peter Lenkov posing for pictures
0:31:45 Lucas and Peter signing autographs
0:32:12 Lucas signing autographs and posing for selfies
0:34:56 Lucas giving an interview on the red carpet
2:04:14 Peter on Stage (he looks REALLY nervous)

A German Interview Lucas did in Amsterdam (the reboot premieres in Germany tomorrow): Lucas Till Interview Stuttgarter Zeitung

There isn't much info we didn't know already. But he talks about that back when he was little, it wasn't as cool doing TV instead of movies and thankfully, that changed.

Also, because of the high pressure he was under (stepping into RDA's iconic role) he didn't dare look at negative feedback and "mean comments" until after the show had started airing and getting some positive reviews as well.

Shared German Promo for MacGyver and Rush Hour since both shows will have its premiere tomorrow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEpQraYle5A

I'm still a bit... surprised about Justin's German voice in Rush Hour. Not the best choice in my opinion . Funny thing, that's also the German voice for Zac Efron.

Btw, Jack Dalton's German voice is also the one for George Eads's character Nick Stokes on CSI and the German voice for Johnny Depp.

Lucas Till is dubbed bei Onan Üzal who also dubbs Johnny Galecki in the "Big Bang Theory", usually Ian Somerhalder (e.g. Lost, Vampire Diaries) or Nicholas Hoult in the X-Men-Movies (which is kinda funny since Lucas Till plays in there as well, but has a different dubbing voice actor).

10-Minute-Interview with Monaco Matin in Monte Carlo. Lucas talks about the auditioning process for MacGyver, the haircut, about bantering with George and what new skills he learnt doing TV for the first time:

Lucas and Peter are attending the Closing Ceremony in Monaco. Both have suited up (tuxed up?) for the occasion. Pictures via Peter Lenkov ( https://www.instagram.com/p/BVkPjmtjcx1/ ) and the official event instagram page ( https://www.instagram.com/p/BVkbZn_jQHP/ )

Looking back at June Promo, it feels like Lucas has a favorite pose

Another video interview with Lucas for MacGyver Promo in Monte Carlo: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5roo73_l...o-sur-idf1_news

It's dubbed in French, but if you listen closely, you can understand Lucas just fine.

(This is only a screenshot. The original YT-Video I had embedded in here has been deleted.)

The CBS Squad did some more promo in Madrid today. Hope they're not melting (Madrid is suffering from a heat wave right now).

Lucas did some more of his balancing tricks: https://www.instagram.com/p/BVp-dm6Dltu/?ta...-by=babspatrick

Video interview with ET Canada from the press junket in Amsterdam: http://etcanada.com/video/974796867565/luc...o/?sf91947575=1

Lucas talks about the crossover, who he'd like to play his father and what role RDA should play.

(sorry, there was no embedding option available)

His comments and Hashtags on his Insta Pictures have me laughing... https://www.instagram.com/p/BVpju0yA9SE/

(It's very MacGyver, though.)

I'm laughing myself silly right now

According to this Swiss Interview, Lucas likes to fish and dreams of buying a houseboat. It seems to be an older interview, but I wonder if something got lost in translation or if it was a joke

Here is a (very bad) small video of Shohreh Aghdashloo and Peter M. Lenkov at the International TV Festival in Monte-Carlo, giving the Golden Nymph for Outstanding Actress in a TV Series-Comedy to...


Apologies for the bad quality of the video and for my stupid laugh in the background

I have to say that Peter's joke really surprised me. It's one of the very very few jokes I've heard in like YEARS during a ceremony in Monaco

Thanks for the post Marina and welcome to MacGyver Online!

Welcome, Marina!

New/Old picture of Lucas mit Robert Patrick during the press junket in Amsterdam last month: http://www.fotogramas.es/series-television...rick-Lucas-Till

Love Robert Patrick.

Took me a while to realize he had been in the pilot episode of "Stargate Atlantis"

Another picture of Lucas and Wilmer Valderrama in London (July 3). I still don't know if there was another press junket or if this was just for "pleasure", not business.

You can vote for MacGyver to be on the cover of Entertainment Weekly: http://ew.com/fall-tv-cover-bracket/

In Round 1, the show is up against "Gotham".

You can vote every day until the next round starts on July 15. It also works from outside the US, which isn't always the case for these things (e.g. I can't vote for the TCAs). So take the chance to spread the name of MacGyver

Welp, out in Round 1

(Though I never thought the Reboot would stand a chance against Gotham, since the show has more fans after being on air for so much longer.)

Wow... that's amazing! Though I'd probably vote for MacGyver as well since I don't watch Gotham. lol

Never seen an episode of Gotham myself. Don't even know if and where it airs on German speaking TV channels, to be honest.

Generally, I think voting for this contest was set up in a very stupid way - you had to click through all the other shows to get to the one you wanted; so I had to vote for shows I never even heard of

I prefer voting for the MTV Awards or the TCAs and such... you can vote for a single category as many times as you want which leads to fandoms rally up their troops; sometimes creating "voting groups" so voting for all timezones is covered as well and insane fights on social media who is in the best fandom

Yeah, I saw how the voting was setup, and I was like... nope, not doing it. XD

The penalty of not watching a lot of TV, I guess. lol I don't have cable, so whatever I do watch is either on Netflix or on the series website.

New/Old video interview with Lucas talking about Season 2. I guess it was made in Toronto for the Corus Upfronts in June: http://globalnews.ca/video/3614659/lucas-t...ver-once-again/

Finally found a clear version of this picture. It's from the photoshoot at the TCA Summer Press Tour back in August 2016.

I liked the portraits they had done there more than the official portraits by CBS.

Old interview that was done for the Season Finale (30 Things You Should Know About Tristin Mays): https://www.buzzfeed.com/lindsayfarber/30-t...g83G#.ebrE4EdWv

Peter Lenkov was in Montreal and visited Global News.

Apparently, it's an inside look into H50 and MacGyver... but somehow I'm missing the insights . I didn't learn anything about the upcoming season by this...

Well, not new. It was shot for Season 1, but since the hair still fits...

MINOR SPOILER ALERT!

TV Guide about the upcoming Season: http://www.tvguide.com/galleries/2017-retu...-fall-shows/39/


Where We Left Off:
MacGyver (Lucas Till) & Co. defeated the infiltrator in the Phoenix office, and everything seemed OK. Bozer (Justin Hires) was recovering nicely from getting stabbed. So Mac, Jack (George Eads) and Bozer's robot set out to find Mac's missing father. But things weren't OK: Murdoc (David Dastmalchian) escaped from Supermax prison, and is coming after MacGyver.

The Scoop:
Murdoc has a long list of people to kill and MacGyver is at the top, but there are some other names that will have to come first before he reaches his prime target. "Murdoc likes to toy with his victims before he pulls the trigger," warns executive producer Peter Lenkov. "So there's some good times ahead between these two."

You're going to have to wait all season to meet Mac's dad too. "One of the big Season 2 arcs is the search for Mac's father," says Lenkov, "a journey that will come to an end in the season finale when we will finally reveal who and where he's been." Who he's been? Hmm..

Lenkov to Entertainment Weekly about the possibility for another crossover with Hawaii Five-0: http://ew.com/tv/2017/08/24/spoiler-room-g...rnatural-flash/


Should we be expecting another MacGyver-Hawaii Five-0 crossover this year? If it’s up to Peter Lenkov — showrunner on both shows — the answer is yes. “The best thing about that experience was learning how to do it,” Lenkov says. “Because a big part of it is the time difference between Hawaii and Atlanta and getting the actors there and getting them to do their scenes and not affect production on both shows. I think we’ll be able to do it in a much bigger way the next time we do it.”

I would absolutely love it if Victorinox did a special edition SAK with MacGyver scales. I can't believe it hasn't happened....maybe copyright issues?
