Richard Dean Anderson is MacGyver and MacGyver is Richard Dean Anderson – this is likely the motivation behind why the reboot of the series has not been acknowledged by fans with great affection. The entertainer is presently getting a charge out of his retirement at 68 years old, with the last appearance on screen in 2013. To date, he has a net worth of $20M which is a big amount if he considers converting it to investment money.

Anderson may have shown up in a few other Television programs, for example, General Hospital (which gave him his starting point in the showbiz industry), Emerald Point N.A.S., and Stargate SG-1, yet he will consistently be recognized as Angus MacGyver, the man who will forever be remembered for choosing his Swiss Army Wife over other weapons to fight miscreants in the hit TV program, MacGyver.

A pioneer of rock and roll and rockabilly music, Lewis made his first recordings in 1956 at Sun Records in Memphis. “Crazy Arms” sold 300,000 copies in the South, but it was his 1957 hit “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” that shot Lewis to fame worldwide.
