Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | MacGruber is an Affectionate Parody of MacGyver originating on Saturday Night Live, in one of the better segments that have shown up in the years since the departure of Tina Fey as head writer. The title character, MacGruber (played by Will Forte), is (supposedly) a Special Ops agent versed in the most deadly forms of everything, the most infamous being his ability (or inability) to deactivate deadly explosives. This makes him somewhat of an Idiot Hero, who is ironically lauded for his expertise and viewed as a skillful agent, yet his bumbling goes unnoticed by some, including himself. Most sketches involve him being locked in a room (pretty much the exact same room each time) with some sort of explosive, his female assistant (originally Casey, played by Maya Rudolph; later Vicki, played by Kristen Wiig), and a strange assortment of tools and items. He happens to be able to use them to deactivate the bomb, but something personal always comes up to distract him before he can. |
