Longestpants 1 Posted July 4, 2008 It's time for a very important debate. A matter of utmost seriousness. But I digress. Angus MacGyver, or Jack Bauer. Which one is more rad? Obviously it's MacGyver, but those inclined to (wrongly) disagree are encouraged to do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gbnavy61 1 Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) Well, just going by the pictures, I'd have to go with MacGyver. I don't see Jack Bauer toting a guided bomb/missile on his shoulder like it's no big deal. (It's a Baby Ruth. It's no big deal.) Also, I'm not up on my firearms, but it kinda looks like Jack's gun is sans magazine. But, in his defense, he's probably just going to pistol-whip the bad guys to death - so why waste money on bullets? Economical, I like that. Of course, if he were really that concerned with America's well being, he'd buy the bullets to support the economy. Tut tut, Mr. Bauer.

SayethWhaaaa 245 Posted July 4, 2008 Only MacGuyver can make a guided bomb from your mum's pantyhose, a half eaten Marsbarm, a steering column and a kid's shoe. And he helped pioneer the 'Aviators'... ...but then again, Jack bauer was once a vampire... Nope, Macguyer, hands down! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kesegy 5 Posted July 4, 2008 come on. no one, and I do mean no one, ever went through so much shi* that Jack Bauer goes through in a single episode, let alone season. and it just keeps coming. i imagine he has an ulcer the size of a fist. Bauer for Vice-president! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparkomatic 7 Posted July 4, 2008 what was MacGyver's job anyway? Kind of like Magnum, PI...how did he get all of that money? At least in Knight Rider it had a semblance of an origin...then of course was forgotten like all other TV shows... Oh, cast my vote for MacGyver...though the potato gun taking out the radiator (and thus ending the pursuit) was a bit of a fetch... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Muesli 2,161 Posted July 4, 2008 MacGyver, by a mile! If it wasn't for him! And he's funnier than Jack bauer too, the monologues and dialogues in the series sometimes were fenomenal! Pete: Mac, whatever you do... MacGyver: I know, I know, Pete, stay out of trouble, keep the expenses down and don't get killed. Pete: Took the words right out of my mouth. MacGyver: Bold and nosy. I'm famous for that. MacGyver: If I had some duct tape, I could fix that. MacGyver: You guys are missing out on a good deal if you kill me. See, I'm kind of an expert with just about everything. MacGyver: What uh-oh? MacGyver: When James Bond gets an assignment, he probably ends up on the Riviera, up to his 007's in bikinis. Me? I end up 80 miles past nowhere. That's just wonderful, right?!

column5 63 Posted July 5, 2008 Guess I am on the other side of this debate. I enjoy RDA in Stargate SG-1, but I prefer Jack Bauer to McG. Not because Keifer is a better actor, but because 24 is such a damn good show in all respects...its like watching a 24 hour movie. Plus I like it because Bauer will torture a suspect on a whim.

I agree there were a couple of seasons that just weren't memorable. Last season was really good though. Yes, there is a new season coming up, it would have already aired but there was a writer's strike in Hollywood last year and the producers of the show decided to push the season back. This upcoming season is supposed to take a fresh approach with a smaller-scale story, so we will see how it turns out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_(season_7) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
