Short description
He's everyone's favorite action hero... but he's a hero with a difference. Angus MacGyver is a secret agent whose wits are his deadliest weapon. Armed with only a knapsack filled with everyday items he picks up along the way, he improvises his way out of every peril the bad guys throw at him.
Making a bomb out of chewing gum? Fixing a speeding car's brakes... while he's riding in it? Using soda pop to cook up tear gas? That's all in a day's adventures for MacGyver. He's part Boy Scout, part genius. And all hero.

What's left behind the scenes
- One episode of the popular science show 'MythBusters' is entirely dedicated to this television series. For example, they examined the possibility of flying a plane made of bamboo.
- In the series 'Stargate Atlantis,' one of the characters, Rodney McKay, when forced to repair a space shuttle ('puddle jumper') on another planet without any spare parts, uses the following excuse to refuse: 'I'm not MacGyver!'
- In one of the episodes of the second season of 'ALF,' several old clips of deadly car stunts are shown at the beginning, with the main character commenting: 'Oh, sorry—those clips aren't from our show, they're from the new MacGyver.'
- In the animated series 'The Simpsons,' Patty and Selma are devoted fans of the show and once even kidnap the lead actor, Richard Dean Anderson, from a 'Stargate' fan convention.
