I’m glad this show is renewed for a second season. It’s one of the few shows my family enjoys together!

Season 2, pretty please!
Please renew. I love this show
Is it too late to save MacGyver? I really like the show and would love to see it renewed!
Not a fan of this reboot. Yes he’s too young to be doing these tricks, but what gets me is his black buddy make masks for films finds out what Mac does and makes him a real agent….without training he goes on missions.
Don’t cancel it pleaseeeee I loved it so much!!!!
Love it!
I also like it better than the original. Please do not cancel it.
