January 13, 20188 yr comment_313452 Just watching some TV last night and 2 shows had a CFL game on in the background. Macguyver Macguyver needed to steal a dish for one of his inventions and the guy was watching an Argos and Alouettes game. Ricky Ray was just about to take a shotgun snap when the dish was pulled off. Hawaii 50 A flashback to Lou Grover in a bar in Chicago had an Argo game in the bar. Had to rewind but seen Chad Kackert on the screen. Pretty random that 2 seperate shows had the CFL on in the states. Report
January 13, 20188 yr comment_313457 Lots of TV uses CFL as it would be too expensive to get NFL footage. Report
January 13, 20188 yr comment_313460 In other news, someone actually watches MacGyver and Hawaii 5-0..... Report
January 14, 20188 yr comment_313521 MacGyver went off the air in 1992 and Ricky Ray didn't start playing in the CFL until ten years later! Impossible! Report

Now you've gone and ruined it for the rest of us. Did you know that MacGuver joined the US air force (Stargate Command) afterwards? Report

The actor who played Taco was a Canadian, not sure if that was a coincidence. Edited January 14, 20188 yr by kelownabomberfan Report

In season 2 or 3 now. I prefer the original actor, but his side kick friend on the new show is a good balance. Anyways, its one of the shows I try to watch weekly. Report

January 14, 20188 yr comment_313535 And there was this rather racy movie being filmed in Alabama and when the locals heard of all the nudity, they showed up on set and started booing and throwing rocks at the actors. Fortunately, the local minister showed up, stood in front of the crowd and picked up one of the projectiles saying. "Let those among you who have never sinned stone the cast first." Report

Apparently he still goes hunting at 90 years old. I wish when they show him and go on about his coaching history they'd mention his success north of the border, but that would require admitting that Canada exists, a no-no on US broadcasts. Report
