Hi friends! I know you;ve just finished reading Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy

Buttons. I hope you like this book as much as I do. I have a challenge for you.

You are going to receive a cup that has ten buttons just like Pete had on his

jacket. And I want you to take those 10 buttons and use them all to build a

tower. Now your tower might knock over. Should we cry about it?

Should we get sad? No! Pete the Cat didn't get sad.

He said, "No big deal!" and he just went on singing. So if your tower falls over, no

big deal! Just build it again. I can't wait to see your towers.

George Eads tells why he swapped stardom in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation for MacGyver

  MacGyver trailer (2016)    . GEORGE Eads has fallen on his feet. The former CSI: Crime Scene Investigation star found a new television role shortly after quitting the long-running crime drama in 2014.

The 50-year-old Texan, who played Nick Stokes, was the only original cast member left on the show after the departures of William Petersen, Gary Dourdan, Marg Helgenberger and Paul Guilfoyle.

Many stars fade into obscurity after leaving a hit show but Eads has bounced back as Jack Dalton in the reboot of MacGyver.

Dalton, a former Delta Force soldier, is the brawn behind intelligence operative Angus "Mac" MacGyver (Lucas Till) who uses his brains, paperclips and a Swiss Army knife to outwit baddies. And the way Eads tells it he is having a blast.

"They called me and the name alone had me running as fast as I could to get over there (to sign on)," Eads says.

George Eads was one of the original cast members of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (l-r) actor Marg Helgenberger with Chandra West, William Petersen, George Eads, Gary Dourdan and Paul Guilfoyle May 2001.

"I was familiar with the original program (with Richard Dean Anderson as MacGyver) and always thought it was an idea that would stand the test of time.

"You hear of a lot of reboots that don't blow your skirt up but when I heard of this one I knew it wasn't going to be boring.

"I saw all the action and I saw that I was going to play an ex-military kind of junkyard dog, which was such a departure (from Stokes on CSI) so I was in.

After an abortive pilot episode, Peter Lenkov, one of the people behind the successful Hawaii Five-O reboot with Aussie Alex O'Loughlin, was brought in to get things back on track.

Aussie producer director James Wan (Furious 7, The Conjuring) is also part of the team overseeing Eads' show.

A bromance quickly developed between Eads and Till despite the age difference. Till has just turned 27. "I never saw the original MacGyver running like this guy (Till) runs," Eads says. "He's like a deer — it is amazing.

"There's a lot of action on this show and I think his (Till's) stuntman is the highest paid stuntman that doesn't do much because he (Till) won't let him.

"When you have a star that's enthusiastic about all the action, it really helps. He doesn't want to stand there. He wants to do it.
