Think the closest I saw was star trek 6 with the original crew signing off. It was touching just like this was. I like that Richard Dean Anderson personally thanked the audience as himself. Gives it that personal touch.
It's sweet, but I wouldn't want every series doing it. It would get very cheesy, and imagine the ones that were cancelled too early... "Hi, this is Nathan Fillion. On behalf of everyone at Firefly, I'd like to say 'this is some bullshit'. Bye."
MacGyver has been on re-run here in Norway constantly the last 23 years after the show ended...it became very popular and it still is, everybody, young and old, "knows" MacGyver :)
My dad gave me Swiss Army knife for my 10th birthday (Obviously, after seeing Macguyver - I had nagged him for months) . It was 1986...I still have it and it still works as good as new.
For me, the most emotional moment in television history. No speeches, no nonsense, no claims. Just "thanking the audience for seven great seasons." Goosebumps.
I have to agree with you. I rewatched the entire series with my child, and it was something I’ll never forget. It was so important to me in my youth and to see a child in 2020 appreciate it was amazing.
It has a quality script, a lot of work on understanding science and technology. I guess today that kind of money would not be spent in research for an amazing script.
The hug was heartbreaking, because it wasn't just the last hug between MacGyver and Pete, but it was the last hug between Richard Dean Anderson and Dana Elcar as well. And you could see it in their face as well, that it wasn't just for show. It really made me cry.
Ppl say anything for attention and likes. This is completely inaccurate. They were together at an award show the following year and seen at a few events over the next decade… baseball games and premieres. Why do ppl run with these wild things in their heads?
What Clint Eastwood did for the Smith and Wesson revolver, Richard Dean Anderson did for the Swiss Army Knife. For all seven seasons, he should have received a commission check.
We don’t know, Richard Dean Anderson just might’ve received some kind of royalties from the company that manufactured the exact Swiss Army Knife he used throughout the coarse of the show. If he did, I’m not surprised at all. Macgyver put the Swiss Army Knife on the map. I know when I was kid watching the show, I also wanted one and my Dad bought me one as a gift. I’m sure while Macgyver was on air, the sales for those Swiss Army Knives had to of gone up.
@@s-t-f Thank you for the info. Apparently Victorinox has been manufacturing Swiss Army knives for a long time. I always assumed Macgyver used the same style knife through out the show but as I found out, he used several different styles of Swiss Army knives. All of this talk makes me wonder if I still have my Victorinox knife. Now I have to go look for it. Thanks again for giving me the name of the company. I had completely forgotten the name.
Greatest TV show ever! I'm only 21, so I didn't really see much of it when it originally aired, but growing up, my brother always watched re-runs, so I fell in love with it. This scene makes me so sad. RIP Dan Elcar
Oh my god this is so great. I remember watching the series finale when Richard came on and thanked the audience for watching. The reruns don't even have this at the end. This is great. Thank you for posting.
I still have memories of watching MacGyver with my grandpa grandpa I was a kid. This show is so wonderful and nostalgic. Kids these days don't know what they're missing.
Macgyver: _"It was bound to happen. Things change."_ Pete: _"Not always. Good things don't."_ . . . . perhaps not change, but definitely end. I think back to my earlier years, and how much of what I cherished is now gone. It seems this world is dead set on a downward spiral.
Never watched a single episode of the original 'MacGyver'. Not even one. However, the classy badassery of this series-closing scene leads me to suspect that I may have missed something really good.
Correct, for then. I was a fan of the series, and not pleased ABC allowed it to "fight" with MNF. Having seen a few shows on dvd, it does, now, seem a bit cheesy and campy. Richard Dean Anderson did an excellent job with the show, including the subsequent TV movies that followed. It got many interested in science and physics. Enjoy your trip through that part of the 1980's.
Guys, don't be sad, after this MacGyver joined the United States government and used an ancient alien device called the Stargate to explore the galaxy and defend the world against alien threats.
Love this scene. Reminds me of saying goodbye to my dad that passed away. Brings memories from watching this show as a kid. And brings a tear to my eye. Wishing I can go back and re live my childhood just to spend more time with my pops.
Im watching MacGyver again...oh, my, I miss so much my childhood, brings me so good memories and those happy days in the 80'. I cannot believe Dana Elcar is not here anymore and RDA is already 70 y.o. 😢😢😢
I felt so sorry for Pete...I can't imagine how hard was for him to live far away from his best friend, specially when he needed the most. Brings me very good childhood memories. RIP, Dana!
This is back when shows were enjoyable to watch and people had class. They actually thanked the audience at the end, and networks would actually let shows complete from start to finish without ending them prematurely, leaving the audience with no resolve or ending as if the series never existed.
Back then just as today shows end prematurely all the time.... those kind of nostalgia comments without any foundation in reality are really everywhere whenever there is a clip if any old show.
I was 5 years old when Macgyver was airing with newly released episodes. It was my highlight of my week each week they were released. I'm now 41yo and just Binge watched as many episodes as I could on Pluto stream. Like other, this last scene gave me goosebumps and made me very sad. The "Thank you" that Richard had was touching. As a 5yo till 10yo boy as it aired, Macgyver was my idol. There was no other individual that was more of an idol than he was. It would be a dream to shake his hand and tell him this.
+tubehkl reponen Under NO circumstances will I see the reboot of MacGyver; I have a tough time with Hawai'i Five-O. What is Hollywood thinking? Here's wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving.
I'm about 14 years younger than RDA, wow did I learn so much from him, loved the show and, since I'm retired now, every Thursday on Heroes and icons I get to watch 5 episodes of Macgyver, I try to never miss it and still to this day.. and still have my Swiss army knife i bought 35 years ago
how much nostalgia for a show masterpiece that can never be redone again and exactly like those years that will never come back .... Great is his originality, his genius, and we all carry him in our hearts
They were willing to spend a lot in research for a top script like this. This is a case when American television is no less than the amazing British television.
Warbird Phoenix I hate when that happens. I still haven’t got over The cancellations of The Event and The Unit Big cliffhangers. So thankful the same fate didn’t happen to Timeless😊
That's nonsense. If anything, abrupt cancellations were WORSE back then. The reason being that episodes were not serialized as much as they are now. So there was little thought of having a goodbye arc or giving a sense of resolution. At best somebody might get married and go off on a honeymoon or Richard Kimble finding the man with one arm. But mostly shows were giving the hook.
Now thats how you end a series, sweet and to the point. Then make it personal and thank you for sticking around and seeing it through. RDA is a class act!
If you like watching amazing shows like this I have a few other suggestions for the greatest shows ever: 1. Breaking bad 2. Dark 3. Better Caul Saul 4. Bloodhounds 5. Attack on titan that’s about it
Spent all my savings on a big Swiss Army Knife when I was 12 I think, way before MacGyver was on over here in the Netherlands. Started carrying it with me everywhere after seeing the first few episodes, kids in school started nicknaming me MacGyver, I felt honored. When this episode aired and I heard his voice over at the end I started crying! 😭 MacGyver has made a profound impact on my life and on who I have become. The Swiss Army knife will remain in my pocket when I get buried!
Thank you too Macgyver you are one of the inspirations of my life. Being resourceful and getting things done using with whatever you have at your disposal.
2019 here... Nostalgia, I grew up watching this, such an awesome and irreplaceable show... Thank you for showing this clip I dunno how did I end up here... They don't do series like this anymore just a bunch senseless reality TV.
+Matthew Bunn It's a joke because RDA played O'Neill in SG-1, who comes out of retirement in the first episode. The show started a few years after MacGyver ended.
i watched every single episode of macgyver too. macgyver touched me on mental and spritual level. with him being the humanitarian that he is. it always made me feel good looking up to him. i had many of my family members die including my dad. But one episode that piqued my interest in particular was passages where macgyvers grandfather dies. it also made me feel that of my grandfather when he died i cried for that moment realizing how much i missed him and all the memories he brought me.
The episode is called "Passages" and for me it was also emotionally and spiritually strong because I was doing mourning for the death of my grandmother and it was my 15 years. It is one of the episodes that I love the most.
Richard Dean Anderson. I have so much respect for u sir. U are always be our Mac Gyver, our hero. I grew up watching Mac Gyver and I can honestly say that it is the best show ever. Best memory of my life. You played the character so well. Just to remind u that u are love by so many around the world. God bless u!!!!
Still remember that particular night. I was 10years old. I cried my heart out that night. Next day at school we were all sad.... Love you macgyver 💚💚 for giving me a happy childhood.
"So uh...where to?" "Hmm. I've got a cabin in the mountains that has a nice pond out back. We could fish, have a few cold ones, talk about movies we've seen at least a dozen times."
The best TV series I've watched.. No one can replace RDA as the original Macgyver.. missing my childhood days..my childhood hero.. where can I watch the original Macgyver again? in 2021?
this show made me appreciate sciene at a very young age...7 seasons flew fast.. never thought this series would end then.. but Thank God for internet, i can watch it over and over again... Thank you to the creators, actors and staff for a very very good show...❤️❤️❤️❤️
Until this day, in Indonesia, people at 40-70, still called "Pisau Mac Gyver" (Mac Gyver knife) the Swiss army knife. He is my hero when i was teen. He is very popular in my country on teh late 90's. Now I am 52.
I remember watching "MacGyver's" final scene when it was fresh... I was five years old at the time and a HUGE fan of the show. When he and his son drove away on their motorcycles, all I could manage was a tearful "Goodbye, MacGyver..." while waving... Then, once it was all over, I just lost it... :.-(
This for me is the first ever tv show i've seen were the lead actor thanks the audience for 7 great seasons. How cool is that. I watched MacGyver when i was a kid. Awesome show!!
I never really got into the show but that was one touching and great ending to a series. I have no idea why it came up on my feed but I'm glad to have seen it.
Ethan Robison (& Meg), did you know Dana Elcar went blind on the show. The producers went above and beyond to help him transition. During the last season he was totally blind. I recall an episode of ET where they showed how they methodically led him through scenes with tape, props, etc. Dana Elcar was worth it. A fine actor.
Always brings me back to my childhood. Never killed anyone just incapacitated the enemy I wish the future was the same. His most powerful weapon was his mind. Long live this fantastic show.
A great show, Richard Dean Anderson and Dana Elcar were a great double act. I really miss the episodes. Oh well, they're all available to buy on Amazon, so I should check out the episodes are see which one's I remember. Thanks to allowing me to share this message. Gordon Taylor, Scotland.
@@christinagurl0522 Well I know there IS a reboot but it's not really MacGyver , just an abuse of a name of a popular classic and it's characters . Classics should remain classics ,not to be messed up again .
@@christinagurl0522 if its so much better then why are you here? You have zero taste if you think some mindless regurgitated mess is better than this classic.
This ending was deep, especially when he thanked the audience, all series should do something like this to their finale.
I think that was a clear indication that the people on the show truly cared about the viewers, and each other.
Think the closest I saw was star trek 6 with the original crew signing off. It was touching just like this was. I like that Richard Dean Anderson personally thanked the audience as himself. Gives it that personal touch.

The saddest TV series finale ever . Goodbye RDA aka MacGyver ...we'll never see a hero like you ever
The saddest series finale I absolutely ever saw was the final episode of MASH. But I like the way this one had a thank you at the end!
26 years later and I still love this.
It has a quality script, a lot of work on understanding science and technology. I guess today that kind of money would not be spent in research for an amazing script.
The hug was heartbreaking, because it wasn't just the last hug between MacGyver and Pete, but it was the last hug between Richard Dean Anderson and Dana Elcar as well. And you could see it in their face as well, that it wasn't just for show. It really made me cry.

To me the end of this show marked the true end of the 80’s even though it was 1992
God I miss the 80s.
The “80s” style and culture we all remember really happened from about ‘82 to ‘92 - so it really did end the 80s
sedawk i loves tge 80's
Yup, but this gave birth to 10 seasons of SG1 which was even better.
love the 80's . damn miss those times
McGyver was a huge part of my childhood...this made a tear drop
He was a huge part of my undergraduate college years.

Right you are. I only bought my first Jeep at 38 and I watched MacGyver when I was only 11.

My college years in the late 90s when I found out about this television wonder.
my childhood memories, the one and only.
Back when shows ended with class instead of the abrupt cancellations of today.
Back when they let a show end and gave it a proper end instead of leaving it open ended.

If you like watching amazing shows like this I have a few other suggestions for the greatest shows ever:
1. Breaking bad
2. Dark
3. Better Caul Saul
4. Bloodhounds
5. Attack on titan
that’s about it
It was filmed in time, as today spending this kind of money for a well-researched script could not possible given what Hollywood is today.
I remember this when it ended and i was so sad. It was such an amazing show. It showed me nothing is impossible. All about how bad you want it
I watched most of the show as a kid...one of my favs of all time...you can even learn actually tricks in life by watching too.
Loved this show.
Too bad Hollywood doesn't seem to be able to make series of this caliber anymore or even give peomising ones any chances.
And by promising I meant shows like Firefly (That was supposed to be Joss Weedon's masterpiece)
And Terra Nova that was a huge cliché breaker!
He's on his way to do some classified work with the military.
ricaard -- Yeah, it seems a large mysterious ring was found in the desert and they need smarties to do some poking at it.
But first needs plastic surgery to loook like Snake Plisken but after surviving that suicide mission, has more surgery to look like himself again.
Great ending that could be done more.
Maybe the remake should be MacGyver's son, not MacGyver. Noone can replace RDA as MacGyver. This ending was so perfect, full of feeling.
Totally agree. This ending always leaves us sad but satisfied. But there will never be another true MacGyver. We miss RDA so much!
Macgyvers son would probably be retired to as he would be around 50 now :P so could have his grandson instead :D
They kinda tried that, with Mac's nephew. And nobody heard about that again.
And to think that if that was successful that actor wouldn’t have joined Supernatural

Course, his son kills himself with his gun...
brought back childhood memories. loved this show
i watched every single episode of macgyver too. macgyver touched me on mental and spritual level. with him being the humanitarian that he is. it always made me feel good looking up to him. i had many of my family members die including my dad. But one episode that piqued my interest in particular was passages where macgyvers grandfather dies. it also made me feel that of my grandfather when he died i cried for that moment realizing how much i missed him and all the memories he brought me.
The episode is called "Passages" and for me it was also emotionally and spiritually strong because I was doing mourning for the death of my grandmother and it was my 15 years. It is one of the episodes that I love the most.
Richard Dean Anderson. I have so much respect for u sir. U are always be our Mac Gyver, our hero. I grew up watching Mac Gyver and I can honestly say that it is the best show ever. Best memory of my life. You played the character so well. Just to remind u that u are love by so many around the world. God bless u!!!!
Great comment!
that is so emotional. I remember still. Missing Macgyver. Missing 90's era
Mohammad Hoque you mean the 80's?
Most emotional moment,,,missing you much MacGyver
Hope he's being paid well for all the reruns, this show will be on forever.
Still remember that particular night. I was 10years old. I cried my heart out that night. Next day at school we were all sad....
Love you macgyver 💚💚 for giving me a happy childhood.
The one and only MacGyver! ❤️
When they get to Cheyenne Mountain Sam goes through quite a change
Yeah, with that haircut and those facial features Sam turns into a Daniel!
@@drklingon I think he was talking more about something else than the name change... especially since there is a Sam in SG-1.

It is a different show that has nothing to do with this.
@@sweetguy19762 r/woooosh
@Samson 92 ya and it is a stupid joke.
Now this was MacGyver. Not the junk on today...
not everything is junk
Reminds me of saying bye to my pops. Rest in peace.
i love you MacGyver u r my childhood hero
I'm still watching the dvds today
l Loved MacGyver and the ending was Really Touching From Richard Dean Anderson.
As a viewer I felt appreciated when I saw this last part of the series. Not many American series have a real ending, let alone thank their audience.
"So uh...where to?"
"Hmm. I've got a cabin in the mountains that has a nice pond out back. We could fish, have a few cold ones, talk about movies we've seen at least a dozen times."
"Oh! I love fish!"
"Then we'll have to pick some up at the supermarket to grill."
"There's no fish in that pond, is there?"
"No?"
The best TV series I've watched.. No one can replace RDA as the original Macgyver.. missing my childhood days..my childhood hero.. where can I watch the original Macgyver again? in 2021?
Thank u, for all the good memories richard :))
this show made me appreciate sciene at a very young age...7 seasons flew fast.. never thought this series would end then.. but Thank God for internet, i can watch it over and over again... Thank you to the creators, actors and staff for a very very good show...❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh wow, an 80’s/ 90’s show with actual closure and a solid ending: no cliffhanger! 😀
I'm watching this scene, as a 53 years old, and it gives me chills.
I give a salute to Richard Dean Anderson, Dana Elcar, Bruce McGill, ad the rest of the Macgyver crew for 7 awesome seasons.
Çocukluğumuzun dizisiydi, kahramanıydı, hala da öyle.
I'm from Spain and here we love MacGyver too.
IWATCHED IT SO MANY TIMES NEVER GET OLD WISH IT LASTED UNTIL NOW :)
You know how many things I MacGyvered in life. I owe him everything
Ditto
Until this day, in Indonesia, people at 40-70, still called "Pisau Mac Gyver" (Mac Gyver knife) the Swiss army knife.
He is my hero when i was teen. He is very popular in my country on teh late 90's. Now I am 52.
I remember watching "MacGyver's" final scene when it was fresh... I was five years old at the time and a HUGE fan of the show. When he and his son drove away on their motorcycles, all I could manage was a tearful "Goodbye, MacGyver..." while waving... Then, once it was all over, I just lost it... :.-(
This for me is the first ever tv show i've seen were the lead actor thanks the audience for 7 great seasons. How cool is that. I watched MacGyver when i was a kid. Awesome show!!
Onions damn these onions! :(
I never really got into the show but that was one touching and great ending to a series. I have no idea why it came up on my feed but I'm glad to have seen it.
The last episode should have been a final showdown with Murdoc.
That would have been awesome. I feel like he was a bit waisted in his final episode
@@ATOK_ They knew this was the last season and they left the Murdoch storyline unsettled not smart
He is really handsome 😍 ❤ im addicted to mcgyver before
"Thanks for the memories." And now a shameless remake will ruin it.
meg nope the REMAKE is in my opinion not macgyver but something unique . Nothing can replace macgyver
Ethan Robison (& Meg), did you know Dana Elcar went blind on the show. The producers went above and beyond to help him transition. During the last season he was totally blind. I recall an episode of ET where they showed how they methodically led him through scenes with tape, props, etc. Dana Elcar was worth it. A fine actor.
You said it. Merry Christmas.
It's Episodes are to how
Yeah with a young dumb dip shit. Can't stand that punk.
Always brings me back to my childhood. Never killed anyone just incapacitated the enemy I wish the future was the same. His most powerful weapon was his mind. Long live this fantastic show.
how classy for Richard to thank the audience. Bravo, man, bravo....
A great show, Richard Dean Anderson and Dana Elcar were a great double act. I really miss the episodes. Oh well, they're all available to buy on Amazon, so I should check out the episodes are see which one's I remember. Thanks to allowing me to share this message.

I hope you bought the DVD's. They are precious items in my house.
There's NO other MacGyver and there NEVER will be !
Psk Dasanayake I don’t think you realize there is a reboot and it’s 10 times better lol.
You learn something everyday!
@@christinagurl0522
Well I know there IS a reboot but it's not really MacGyver , just an abuse of a name of a popular classic and it's characters . Classics should remain classics ,not to be messed up again .
@@christinagurl0522 if its so much better then why are you here? You have zero taste if you think some mindless regurgitated mess is better than this classic.
kendall rivers cbs obviously thought while making the reboot “if at first you don’t succeed, try try again” and I can see why
Dana Elcar was suffering an eye disease, and the producers even worked that into his character. Truly awesome
He was my frist tv star😍
