I grew up on the books and I’m loving this show. First season is more about set up but season two slaps hard so far. I legit can’t wait for each new episode, whereas first season was more of a passive curiosity about where they went with it.
Imho, don’t even pay attention to the hate. Most of it is from book readers and if you haven’t read them it literally does not matter.
He filmed Macgyver there before Stargate too so the dude had TONS of time in van
