Keith Powers is listed as the composer of the pilot episode:
I'm really curious to find out if they will re-use any of the classic themes. I fully expect the opening title music will be used (in a new arrangement), but there were a few "in-episode" pieces of music that were used very frequently throughout the original series, and they are just as much a part of MacGyver as the theme song is. (I wish there was a way to hum music through text so you could hear some of the themes I'm talking about. You all know them, though, I'm sure.)
And yes I too would love to hear some of those old songs re-arranged and back (to some degree).
But this is a new series, and while it is nice to see these nods to the past. We also need to be mindful, and welcoming of new elements and ways Peter Lenkov and this team develop and reinvigorate this series for the 21st century.
Yeah, I know. I don't think old themes NEED to come back (and, honestly, I'd be surprised if they do), but I'm just curious about it.
Anyway, as long as the new music is good, I'll be happy. I suspect, in general, the background music in this will actually be better than the background music in the original series. Sometimes the original music got a bit overbearing. I never really used to notice it in the 80s, but when I rewatch the show now, it's too much, to the point of being distracting.
Your crowd control shot - looks more like the back of a giant blue screen. Probably doing something dangerous again. Also there is a short video on Lenkov's Instagram page showing James Wan directing a scene (it quite short though).

I'm more interesting in what ever that tasty looking drink he's got going there... whatever it is... I want one!

V/O also stands for verbal order. Maybe Macgyver is a nurse this time around whistle.gif Nurses have to Macgyver quite a lot biggrin.gif
I don't think so. I agree with RDoyletv, I think that the episode starts with MacGyver walking into an old or abandoned hospital (like the one in the episode 4x02 - Blood Brothers?) and talking to himself. So I think that we will be "listening" MacGyver's thoughts or memories.

Just a joke (and a bit of autobiographical info about me) on my part, I'm a nurse by trade and have done my share of Macgyvering already
Loving all this talk about the new production. Super excited to see it happening!!
