Supposedly a nice guy. He was, IMHO, never really a looker. He used to bang Katarina Witt who also looks like sh*t now.

Not great but he's nearly 70 OP.

It simply isn't realistic for everyone to remain looking the way they looked when they were young. Just look at Nicole Kidman...

It's called aging and retiring.

He doesn't work as an actor anymore, he doesn't care about looking good.

Enjoy your life and the donuts Richard.

He got old and aged like a normal male do, fat and all.

I couldn’t remember what he looked like. He was stunning. Even aged well for quite a while.

I agree. He must have dieted and exercised like a maniac to always be so slim with a sculptured face.

At least he has his hair. I'm more shocked at how fat he got. He's also red in the face, alcoholic?

He was quite active physically at one time and then sustained an injury and required back surgery. He packed on the weight after surgery because he wasn't very mobile during a lengthy convalescence.

He’s been kidnapped and replaced by a pod or something. He was aging skinny. Who’s the fat guy??? My entire world is gone. No one looks even close to even ten years ago!

He clearly is a closeted hom*osexual.

by Anonymousreply 23March 20, 2018 7:38 AM

What happened? He aged. McGuyver was more than 30 years ago. If he weren't fat, he'd look even older because the wrinkles wouldn't be plumped out.

by Anonymousreply 24March 20, 2018 7:46 AM

He's not fat, he is also 6'1 or 6'2" which means he can carry weight, so he is not fat, he is grossly obese.

He was in Jessica Jones I think. I was shocked when he opened the door. His face is the biggest change.

Was he ever married, his Wiki page mentioned a kid, but not the woman he had the kid with.

Why would he be married, he's clearly a hom*osexual?

Elder gays will recall him as hunky Dr. Jeff Webber on "General Hospital".

His brother Jeff is a talented landscape architect, is gay, and is into "full figure" boys.

Always thought MacGyver was gay they way RDA played him. He never had a convincing relationship with a woman. In the show's last season he moves into a kind of liberal urban neighborhood and I wondered where they were going to go with him.

by Anonymousreply 34March 20, 2018 10:29 AM

It's the extra weight that makes him not look hot anymore. If he dropped about 50 lbs. he'd be a stunner again.

by Anonymousreply 35March 20, 2018 11:31 AM

OP - I’d be careful. There might be some dental floss, car fuses and an aerosol can in those reusable bags. He could decide to MacGyver your toned, perfectly proportioned ass.

From IMDb: "He has never married but has dated many women, including actresses Teri Hatcher, Lara Flynn Boyle, Sela Ward and German ice-skater Katarina Witt.

Since 1996, his partner has been Apryl A. Prose, who is the mother of his only child, Wylie Quinn Annarose Anderson, who was born on August 2, 1998.

Like her father and grandfather (who passed away in 2003), she is fond of jazz. Because of his young daughter, he has temporarily taken a break from acting in order to spend time with her and help her develop. Richard has made it a point throughout his career to choose roles that demonstrate his versatility as an actor. Many of his characters, particularly MacGyver and O'Neill, are strong characters who, although tormented by personal tragedies such as the death of family members and friends, can continue on bravely and valiantly."

Is Ben Browder still hot?

He was on Stargate for its last two seasons.

Still attractive! he has money, right?

by Anonymousreply 41March 20, 2018 12:12 PM

Yeah imbd bio is a good indicator of heterosexualness. I remember watching an interview in which he was asked why he was still single and he said he has not found the right woman yet. So classic closet case answer.

r29 He was not in Jessica Jones and couldn't be because he retired from acting in 2013.

R43 you're right, it was Don't trust the B in Apt. 23. I had it confused because the same actress is the lead in both that series and Jessica Jones. He looked puffy and alien, the way he does today, so I guess he retired from acting right after that.

R37 Shanks still looks mighty fine. The pic is from November 2017.

I believe Richard has retired from acting in fact that was one of the reasons he left SG-1 after season 8 was because he had had enough of the business.

Oh please he looks like hell on earth. No way is this normal aging no matter how many uglies here try to spin it that way. I’ll be 50 next month and still look in my 30s. All it takes is a little will power and some good genes I suppose.

He looks like every other average American in their senior years who have gained some weight. So what, who cares? I'll have a glass of wine.

Funny enough one of my best friends (who has posted on DL) worked on SG-1 as a production assistant has long said that Richard Dean Anderson was one of the most pleasant actors he ever worked with. He's apparently retired from show business and has become almost a recluse.
