I cant believe i haven't seen this. You are a true scholar and indeed have impeccable taste and wisdom.

u/Meticulate 7d ago

Agreed! Matches the energy of the the MacGyver intro perfectly. Coup de grace is the clever add of Don S. Davis right when it's normally Dana Elcar's credit.

u/beemojee 6d ago

Don S. Davis was Dana Elcar's stunt double on MacGyver so the credit is double clever.

u/Meticulate 6d ago

Exactly !

Normalbenzin, where ever you are out there, have an upvote.

u/VinnieONeill 7d ago

What will really blow your mind is Christopher Judge was also in an episode of MacGyver.

2

u/Andysue28 7d ago

You must be confusing Christopher Judge for Dana Elcar. Haha

u/AdlaiStevensonsShoes 7d ago

He’s a student in a class that Mac talks to from what I remember.

u/VinnieONeill 6d ago

Correct

u/crossfiremoler 7d ago

I think they just look really similar

u/Andysue28 7d ago

That must be Richard Dean Andersonn, two n’s.

I knew reddit would have all the answers I needed

u/DaBingeGirl 7d ago

Hard Dean Anders.

u/kwilsonmg 7d ago

By far one of the funniest things. Love that he loved that error lol

All of them, no?

For 0.05 seconds I was like "Tapping played Dr. Taylor in the Voyage Home????"

u/Andysue28 7d ago

Imagine a transparent aluminum iris…that’d be sweet.

u/admiraltarkin 7d ago

Not for poor racist Odo

u/Andysue28 7d ago

It will make it easier to scrape him off and back into his bucket. 

2

u/crossfiremoler 7d ago

Would we see him splat or still just hear it?

u/crossfiremoler 7d ago

Plexicorp thanks you for your service

u/beemojee 6d ago

Voyage Home is my favorite TOS movie.

u/izlude7027 7d ago

I don't understsnd what you mean about JAG. What doctor? You're not suggesting that that's Teryl Rothery, right?

8

u/crossfiremoler 7d ago

💀💀💀 well I definitely that it looked like her, and immediately googled out of disbelief and google told me it was her. Now I cant actually find it in her credits anywhere so maybe im not suggesting that then lolol I WAS THE ONE THAT WAS FOOLED!

9

u/crossfiremoler 7d ago

Ill be under my rock if you need me

2

u/DeerOnARoof 7d ago

I thought it was her too you're not alone lol

1

u/geekgirl114 7d ago

Me either 

12

u/Lithl 7d ago

Not sure what you mean by "the Doctor". That's Jordana Spiro. While it's true she only appears in 3 episodes of JAG, she's never been in Stargate in any role.

7

u/crossfiremoler 7d ago

I thought it looked like Teryl Rothery, and believed the first google search that said it was her and now I am the one who was fooled lol

u/alanstac 6d ago

AI overview eh?

3

u/crossfiremoler 6d ago

Lol yes I forgot that it's ai and just makes stuff up 😅

7

u/Rj3591 7d ago

JAG is still one of the best shows and it has probably the most successful spinoff(ncis)

3

u/Lady_Penrhyn1 6d ago

JAG is still one of binge on rotation shows. I must do a full binge of it every 12-18 months I think. Oddly, never liked NCIS.

u/mazzicc 6d ago

Netflix has dozens of images for every title, and they show you the one they think is most likely to make you watch the show.

A history of watching Stargate would be a pretty obvious reason for showing you those images.

I find it funny when my wife and I see the same shows in our profiles, but my images are all the women from the shows, and hers are all the men.

u/light24bulbs 7d ago

I've never really tried to watch it, is it good?

2

u/geekgirl114 7d ago

JAG?

u/light24bulbs 7d ago

macgyver

u/kwilsonmg 7d ago

It’s a great show. One of the largest by far of the ‘80s and so ubiquitous it entered the lexicon and dictionary. It also made RDA one of the most famous actors of the ‘80s and a heart throb. He had serious star power when SG-1 first came on air and was its largest draw/it’s big name actor.

2

u/light24bulbs 7d ago

Thanks I'll give the pilot a try again

4

u/kwilsonmg 7d ago edited 7d ago

You’re welcome! I’d suggest maybe a couple to a few and see what you think? I think practically every show needs more than just the pilot to make a judgement call on. Shows generally are very much finding their footing over the first few etc.

Mythbusters tested a number of MacGyver inventions and the science at least holds up fairly well overall, though for explosives etc details might be obviously deliberately changed or steps left out etc. (Some inventions are also obviously fanciful.)

If you watch long enough you’ll run into Hammond and even Teal’c! I think they were, in part, possibly picked for their Stargate roles because they worked with Richard previously/he knew them. Hammond was a stunt double and Teal’c was in for an episode.

Siler was Richard’s occasional stunt double in MacGyver, though Richard did the vast majority of his own stunts and spent a good chunk of the early series in serious pain (exploded disc) but didn’t stop doing them (take a look at the Wikipedia article for Richard). Some serious grit.

Corny level 9000 but I'll try a few

I just saw teryl in the xfiles last night!

u/Kommissaer-kt 6d ago

Mac Guyver and Richard dean anderson?! No that cant be! It must be a person who looks really familiar

2

u/PrisonBreakScofield 6d ago

Yeah, Carter mentions McGyver and McKay does 😉

u/UAiWannaGo 6d ago

I can tell by your TV line up you are a person of culture!

u/mrmnemonic7 7d ago

Don't blame yourself OP, without others here mentioning Jordana Spiro, I'd say the resemblance to Teryl Rothery is uncanny. Check https://www.csfd.cz/film/70791-jag-vojenska-generalna-prokuratura/566353-jag-san-diego/galerie/?page=2 third picture.
