Copy to Clipboard Spoilers for 'MacGyver' Season 5 There is some bad news for 'MacGyver' fans â there is no new episode this week. This time though we were teased! The original release date for Season 5 Episode 11 was supposed to be this week on March 12, 2021, but the network changed the schedule later. With the next episode heavily focused on Mac and Riley, the fans that ship them have gotten really upset that they have to wait weeks before seeing a #MacRiley scene. According to the CBS schedule, March 12, 8 pm, will see the Meghan Markle and Prince Harry CBS Primetime Special with Oprah Winfrey instead. While there is no official reason, we would assume that Covid-19 and that bombshell interview could be it.
