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?

Yea MacGyver is one of my all time favorite shows!

I used to have a lot of scrap book material of him (newspaper interviews, etc.), but I don't know what happened to it all, lol.

Star Gate is another one of my favorites

... I just remembered, one of the articles I used to have did mention that he was in a rock band when he was younger, before he became an actor.

Correction to what I just posted ... I just read on his official website that he's doing at least one of the upcoming Stargate movies.


myLot reputation of 98/100. emeraldisle (8978)   ranked 1 out of 5,005 in watching television  3 years ago

OH cool, that's good to know that he will be doing one of them.

Yeah I knew he had his own band at one time. The one series he did "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" was a musical and he did sing in it. The series was short lived but he was good in it.

Hehe..at one time I had lovely dreams about Richard Dean Anderson when he was on MacGyver and watched that show religiously, I even taped many of the episodes...I really haven't seen him in anything else but did see a few episodes of Stargate which I just never warmed up to...I thought the movie was so much better and the way Anderson was in it well....he just doesn't seem to have the pizazz he had as MacGyver..


myLot reputation of 98/100. emeraldisle (8978)   ranked 1 out of 5,005 in watching television  3 years ago

Well I didn't get into Stargate until it was on Sci-Fi Channel and near the end of him being on there full time. I loved him on MacGyver. One of my favorite shows back then actually. His character was very good and I enjoyed watching to see what he'd come up with next.

I loved his million uses for duct tape....LOL--now I'm in the habit of using it for everything too

I must have had a sheltered TV life-I'd never seen MacGyver until I'd seen RDA in Stargate SG-1! A friend who'd previously loaned me SG-1 dvd's to catch up then loaned Me Mac's season 1 -was funny to see RDA's reaction to Sam Carter saying something about having "MacGyvered" the DHD computer at Stargate Command!


myLot reputation of 98/100. emeraldisle (8978)   ranked 1 out of 5,005 in watching television  2 years ago

I bet you didn't understand until after watching it. He's a great actor and I've enjoyed him in everything I've seen him in. I missed many of the early shows of SG-1 but I'm trying to catch up on them at times. I love how he reprised the role of MacGyver for the Mastercard commercial. I lost it when I saw that.


myLot reputation of 96/100. ShepherdSpy (2505)   ranked 146 out of 5,005 in watching television  2 years ago

Despite never having seen him before SG-1,I knew the gist of the MacGyver story about the guy able to improvise his way out of a sticky situation using only the penknife-so I got the joke,but it made things clearer having seen the Mac DVD's..

I always found it interesting how he came up with stuff. It was amazing. The discovery channel did a show about McGyverisms and how they would or not work. It was advertised but I never got to see it. Hoping it will be on it.

I like him when he Played Jeff Webber, thought they just made him to much of an idiot tho. He could have done so much for the show. But he left and did quite okay for himself!

I remember watching him as a kid in Macgyver. I don't remember him in General Hospital. Maybe because I didnt really watch General Hospital. But my favorite tv series he was in was dafinitely stargate.
