    Young MacGyver?

    Found this online:

    YOUNG MACGUYVER PROJECT
    Studio: Paramount Network Television
    Commitment: Pilot Pick Up (Put Pilot)
    Auspices: Steve Downing (EP N/W), John Richards (EP N/W), Henry Winkler (EP N/W), Sam Baum (SP / W-Pilot)
    Logline: The original series starred Richard Dean Anderson and ran from on ABC from September 1985 to August 1992. "Young MacGyver" will follow the twentysomething hero as he leaves school and winds up joining the Phoenix Foundation -- the good-guy organization his uncle belonged to -- on a lark. Once there, he discovers that he's incredibly adept at stepping into Uncle MacGyver's shoes.

    "Our MacGyver will be a little more irreverent than the original," explains Carolyn Bernstein, senior VP of drama development at the WB. "It will have a lot in terms of the same elements of the original series, but with a brand-new cast of characters and updated for present day."

    The original "MacGyver" was the last show to pop a solid number for ABC in the pre-"Monday Night Football" time slot. Indeed, Paramount first approached ABC about the "Young MacGyver" project, but the network passed.

    Its been backed up uy IMDB

      Umm... Where have you been?

      This show was supposed to be made a year or two ago with hot "Dean" from Gilmore Girls", that's why he left, and it was chanceled.
      It’s the show that doesn’t end, it goes on and on my friends, some people started watching not knowing what it was, but they will be watching forever just because it’s the show that doesn’t end…..

          Wow, my freaky Stargate/Gilmore Girls crossover fantasy gets freakier all the time. Dean would have made a great Macgyver mini-me.

            I guess it must be like the commerical where the guy finally got to the end of the internet. Everybody in Hollywood must be completely out of new ideas, unless it's for the next utterly redicuoulous Reality Show.

            O'Neill: All Check. O'Neill: Phasers? Carter: Sorry Sir.

              It's not a prequel, it's MacGyver's nephew... just like that James Bond Jr. cartoon actually Of course, Rick could appear (So help them if they try to steal his time from SG-1 )

                Hmm. I never heard about that. So, they aren't doing this anymore? Or are they? It might be interesting, but has the potential to be really bad too...hmm.

                  I don't know. I think it would be really bad. But I could imagine Don as Pete. But without RDA returning, in this, I don't think it would do so well.

                      It should be his son. In the last episode of MacGyver, Mac found out he had a son he didn't know about. The anagrams of his name was SAM and that's what he wanted to be called.

                          Glad that's not going to happen. Strikingly similar to this "Smallville" crap.

                            Question then becomes, can they track down the guy that played his son originally?

                              Smallville is the story BEFORE Clark Kent becomes Superman.

                              This is the story AFTER the events of MacGyver, and it involves nephew/cousin/person. Its not Angus MacGyver, its Clay MacGyver, a totally different person.
