Richard Dean Anderson  |
|
How many of you remember Richard Dean Anderson before he was on Stargate as General O'Neil? Don't get me wrong, I love him in the part but he has done many roles before then. I've enjoyed him in many of the shows he did. I loved him as MacGyver. That was a great role and a great show as well. I also liked him though in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, a very short run musical show that he played the lead on. He was good on General Hospital too for that matter. So do you like Richard Dean Anderson and if so which role or roles did you like him best in?

31. jillmalitz (3896) | 3 years ago | I loved him in MacGyver and so did my kids. Actually the girls did think he was "cute". I'm telling my age because I still remember him as Dr Webber on General Hospital.

33. nowment (1185) | 3 years ago | I remember when he was on General Hospital and left the show to do Seven Brides, which was then cancelled but he went on to MacGyver.
It was interesting that instead of just replacing the character with another actor as so many soaps do, that instead they had him move away.
And he is basically a forgotten character of the show despite his popularity and central focus he had at that time.

emeraldisle (8978) | 3 years ago | Yeah they did that with a few characters but not many, they usually recast which sometimes works sometimes doesn't. I think he did great with MacGyver but he lucked out with it. I'm sure though if it hadn't and he had wanted to go back to GH it would have been possible.

nowment (1185) | 3 years ago | I don't doubt they would have welcomed him back they did try to bring the character back very very briefly but it just wasn't the same, I think they were hoping that by the gap in time from Richard Dean Anderson leaving and the time they recast the role people would be ok with the new actor but there was no spark.
I wasn't sure how I was going to react to the Stargate series having been a fan of the movie. I like both versions of Jack O'Neill, I think that having the sense of humor he had for the character kept it from being to much, when the character himself pokes fun of himself it gives some leveling to the character and the story lines.

emeraldisle (8978) | 3 years ago | I know what you mean about the show O'Neill compared to the movie one. I could not picture him in the role. I thought of how Kurt Russell did the role and it just didn't fit with Richard Dean Anderson. After watching it though I can see how good he is in the part. He did a fantastic job.

35. hockeygal4ever (5357) | 3 years ago | I knew I knew him from elsewhere but could never really place him. I think I will always see him as General O'Neil myself though.

emeraldisle (8978) | 3 years ago | I know how that goes with an actor. I've done it myself a few times. One reason I love imdb.com. I can look up people and see where else I might know them from.

emeraldisle (8978) | 3 years ago | I love the credit card commerical. I thought that was great he did it.
I believe he left GH to do Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. I think it would be neat if he did a guest appearence if nothing else. That would be awesome to see. Might bring in other fans to the show if they like him from elsewhere.

39. claudia413 (2540) | 3 years ago | I've always LOVED Richard Dean Anderson and would still watch anything he appeared in. My favorite show was definitely MacGyver...I always hated to have to miss it when it was on. Every now and then I'll catch a re-run on some off channel. To me, he's absolutely gorgeous and always was.
