MacGyver (2016) • Season 1 Ratings & Reviews
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
Some of us won't be able to watch "MacGyver" without feeling like we're getting a lobotomy with an unwound paper clip; others will be delighted by this energetic, easygoing update.
Decider
Jade Budowski
The superficial, seemingly lazy nature of this MacGyver reboot rules it out quickly when there are so many other series coming out that offer so much more. Honestly, just go watch MacGruber instead.
Common Sense Media
Joyce Slaton
Cheerfully dumb throwback has science, heaps of violence.
John Hanlon Reviews
John Hanlon
The concept of the show works better than the execution but there's still a lot to like here in this inventive procedural.
Salt Lake Tribune
Scott D. Pierce
If you turn off your brain, this isn't the worst way you can spend an hour. But it's not a particularly good show.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Gail Pennington
MacGyver isn't going to set prime time on fire. But it's watchable enough, and it seems like a good Friday night fit.
AV Club
Gwen Ihnat
CBS must have reasoned that the new version would have to be bigger and flashier. This reboot accomplishes that, but in doing so, loses the whole point of MacGyver in the first place.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
This one thinks borrowing the names and rushing through the wizardry is enough to bring back the warm fuzzies of that time Richard Dean Anderson's MacGyver made a defibrillator using nothing but candlesticks, a microphone cord... It's not hat easy.
The Atlantic
Megan Garber
It is trying very, very hard to fit in. It has the right elements; what it hasn't yet quite figured out yet, though, is how to combine them into something that will be truly explosive.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Neal Justin
Till may get more of a workout than Minnesota's Richard Dean Anderson did in the original series, but he needs better dialogue if he wants audiences to keep running with him.
Los Angeles Times
Mary McNamara
"Why, why, why, 'MacGyver' "? "Why, why, whyyyyyyy, 'MacGyver' "? The above should be sung to the tune of the Tom Jones hit "Delilah."
Newsday
Verne Gay
Till's got charm and his on-screen bromance with Eads is one of the few elements that actually works. But patience and bromances won't save this. A smart, compelling, up-to-date rethinking just might.
USA Today
Robert Bianco
MacWhatever. If, out of some uncontrollable nostalgic yearning, you've been longing for a remake of the 1980s series that inspired a handyman verb, you'll find the bare-bones outline in CBS's MacGyver.
Rolling Stone
Sean T. Collins
The look is CSI contemporary-primtime slick; the ability to defeat bad guys with common household objects is pure old-school.
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
Watching MacGyver try to gadget his way out of a predicament just makes you think, "Isn't there an app for that?"
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
The show is rather flat overall.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It's a well-made distraction.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
There's no actor in the cast capable of providing the grit or grounding that the show needs for the flights of fancy to land.
Variety
Maureen Ryan
George Eads does what he can to bring a bit of energy to the MacGyver spy crew, but it's a futile effort. MacGyver may know a lot about chemistry, but this unmemorable team has none.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
A ho-hum revival that, despite its title character's signature skills, clearly has no intention of reinventing the wheel -- or much of anything else.
