FAVORITE VIDEOS/GIFS OF RDA

Post by LTTPlits »

It occurred to me that it might be fun to have a central place on the Forum to compile favorite videos and maybe even GIFs that we have found in our travels on the internet, like we do with photos in Thunk! and the videos that members have posted in the separate topics about various conventions. I send links to favorite videos around the holidays to like-minded friends. But, hey, we are all like-minded friends here, so I thought if we all posted links to our favorites in a topic, everyone could enjoy them! The videos can be from conventions, interviews, fan-created homages to RDA, or to any of his characters. Or if you're talented enough to create your own videos or GIFs, please consider posting them here.... (Now, that would most definitely not be me! ;)) Anything!! jp

I'm going to start things off with a fan-created YouTube series about Jack's sense of humor. (To quote Jack, "Well, that's a shocker!" :P :lol:)

(Kate, I wasn't sure where to put this topic on the Forum.... It isn't really about photos but it's sort of related to that... Anyway, if you think it is better off somewhere else, please feel free to move it! jp)

Fabulous idea, JP!

I feel like I should continue this thread with a MacGyver contribution, but since I have recently found this to reciprocate the generosity of a "Jack fan", I will make this my first priority!

Even though this song was written prior to SG1 and not for it, RDA, or Jack, it could be RDA's anthem during his SG1 days (or so the experts tell me). ;)

As the "Jack Fan," MacGyverGirl, I appreciate your generosity in contributing the links to this video first! It really captures Jack and the song is absolutely perfect... :lol: Could have been written for him and about him (and I mean, RDA in those days ;)... I think his nickname on the set was "Big Boy"!) It also reminds me that I have to listen to more Bryan Adams...

But now, please, contribute one about Mac.... I'm sure not to have seen it. You know, I have a lot of catching up to do on that score, jp ;) :lol:

every convention he did in Australia that song and video would play as his introduction on stage for the question and answer panels :lol: :lol:

this is one of my favorites because it's true ;)

Erg, that is a great one!!! :lol: I'd never seen it but they certainly have it completely right in the land-down-under!!! RDA is the best! Thanks for putting that one up! :D

Well, here's another with a song that's perfect for the subject. It won the 2009 Blue Moon Award (Whatever that is; but I'm impressed! :D ) And, oh, it's about Jack.... ;)

The video that MacGyverGirl posted is perfect as well... so I stand by my comment, (even if I had the details wrong! ;) :lol: ) that they have it right in the Land Down Under!

Great videos, Erg! Loved them. :D I remember that in one of the MacGyver episodes, RDA was seen playing that composition. I'm going to go out on limb and guess that it was "The Negotiator".... but I'd be frankly shocked if I got that right! I'm only on my third time through....

And speaking of, while you know I appreciate anything related to SG-1 and Jack, before I post another one, I'd love to see some about Mac.... they will be all new to me!

You did get that right! It was 'The Negotiator' ... when we got a little insight on MacGyver's romantic side... :D
The stuff is already there. I just find a different way to use it.

I am back and with a MacGyver video (not my own)!

I confess that I had two crushes in the '80s to early '90s: MacGyver/RDA and Bryan Adams. ;)

I know this song was not written for Mac, but I think it describes him to a T. Listen to the lyrics.

And the ending still photo, to me, wraps up the MacGyver series.
