MacGyver: What You Didn’t Know About The Classic Show

Still Saying No To Guns

The original MacGyver had a thing for guns. That is, he didn’t like them at all and that’s’ why he wanted to find another way to solve his issues. Lucas Till’s rendition stayed true to that.

“I think MacGyver is the kind of guy that, if he needs a weapon, he’ll build it,” Lenkov said. “He’s not a gun guy. George’s character is very different. George’s character is sort of the muscle of the show. He’s ex-military. He’s the guy that sees the value in a gun as a defensive weapon. But yeah, this is very true to the original concept of the show, which is MacGyver is not a gun guy. MacGyver is a different type of hero.”
