Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted May 3, 2008 Member Share Posted May 3, 2008 Just got Macgyver season 2. "The Wish Child" episode looks to be a ripoff of The Golden Child with Eddie Murphy. It starts with Tia Carerre and Macgyver in a friendly karate fight. Nice headband Macgyver has on. About 5 minutes in I spotted Conan Lee. I'm hoping he does something good. So far he's only punched Macgyver a couple times. Doubtful that there will be a good fight, but I'm still hoping! EDIT- just got done with the episode. Conan does nothing else. I don't know if I wasn't paying attention for a minute or what, but he just disappears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Endsang Posted May 3, 2008 Member Share Posted May 3, 2008 The Golden Child was dreadful, but the co-starring girl was smokin'. Come to think of it, if I ever were to imagine Conan in an american tv show, it would be a super small cameo in Macgyver. I'll check it out if I can. but he just disappears. Story of his life I guess. Nice find, Morgoth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member TibetanWhiteCrane Posted May 3, 2008 Member Share Posted May 3, 2008 Too bad Macgyver didn't offer to make Conan a new career, made out of Gum, Scotch tape and a digital watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted May 3, 2008 Author Member Share Posted May 3, 2008 Haha! Good one oldeschool and white crane. I loved The Golden Child with Eddie Murphy, but this Macgyver episode sucked. The story is horribly done, and I was pretty pissed that Conan didn't get to do anything. Oh well, at least Tia Carerre's in it. I'll watch anything with her. And James Hong and George Takei are also in this episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
