i guess there was bound to be a Bozer episode but I'm not thrilled. IMO Bozer should have been just recurring. I didn't like his 3 episode arc last year. (and I'm not fond of Leanna; so insipid and I don't buy her as an agent. ) As for Nancy Kiu she wrote the least enticing episode S2-2. IMO she doesn't get the Mac/Jack dynamic. I love the show, tho, and I'll be watching every minite lol

I instantly dread the episode when I read the title and then see why...OFCOURSE it is written by Nancy Kiu!!! UGGGG
Why I don't mind delving a bit deeper into Bozer's history, I'm just not interested to see another character with daddy issues
Also, they never manage to balance his storyline with the main story. It always seems to take too much space when there's such an interesting main story happening - e.g. 2x07 that just aired on German TV recently.
I think Jack should have had the last scene with putting on the almost-lost-dog-tags of his dad, not Bozer getting the kid a chance for a new job. Yes, it's a nice ending to Parker's story (or whatever his name was) and I liked that he helped him instead of turning him in because it's exactly what Original MacGyver would have done.
But the entire underlining B-story was about Jack losing something very close to this heart and finding it again and Bozer getting the last scene kinda overshadowed it - which is even more annoying because George Ead's acting was superb in that scene.
That's always a sign you might be in trouble if your dashboard is on fire... Currently blogging about the MacGyver Reboot on Dashboard On Fire

Don't recall seeing that dog before.
Lol, I misread the name as "Han Solo", and I was like, "WHAT?!"
Don't think I've ever seen the dog before, either. Seems like most people in the crew didn't work on the reboot back in Season 2, that's why I have a harder time finding new photos. Don't know who's actually part of the S3 crew at the moment.
Well, the writers like their Star Wars references, so it fits
