MacGyver episode 19 return date: When Lucas Till, cast are back

Following the Hawaii Five-0 crossover event, the MacGyver episode 19 return date is unfortunately a little ways down the road. Nonetheless, we’re more than happy to share a little bit more news about it now!

You will get a chance to see the Lucas Till – George Eads remake once more starting on Friday, March 31. In other words, that is three weeks from tonight, and a very-long wait in order to see more of the show … at least in comparison to the seven days or so that we’ve had the majority of the series’ run. With that said, it’s almost nothing compared to what we’re going to be going through come this April, when the show goes off the air and we’re left waiting until September most likely to be seeing more new episodes — provided, of course that MacGyver is renewed (still no reason for pessimism here).

This is usually the part of the article where we share the synopsis for the next story, but the issue there is that CBS has yet to officially share one. That will hopefully happen over the next week or two so we can start to plan ahead for what is the home stretch of the series.

As for what we can expect for sure, there’s going to be at least one more appearance from Murdoc, and it’s possible that someone else from the first nineteen episodes coming be stopping back. The show with its finale has a great opportunity to either bring back Nikki and tie up that mythology further or start something entirely new for the second season. For that first 13-episode run, part of the problem was clearly trying to figure out if the story as it was being told worked; now that we’ve moved past that, we’re at the next order of business in seeing how to raise the stakes and make things even more exciting. You know what you’re doing works, so you gotta figure out a way to divert expectations.

Personally, we’d love to see a two-parter or some sort of extended mission for MacGyver and Jack — though we’d also love to see the Bozer / Riley romance, just because the idea of it happening on a permanent scale sounds like it’d be both heartwarming and hilarious at the same time.
