Part boy-scout. Part genius. All hero. Using his brain in place of a gun, secret agent Angus MacGyver relies on his knowledge of science to save himself and others from jeopardy. Deploring the promotion of everyday violence, MacGyver refuses to carry weapons and instead designs life-saving tools out of household staples like paper clips and duct tape. Richard Dean Anderson portrays a likeable hero of strong principals and intellect in this clever series, which successfully ran for seven years (1985-1992) and continues to remain a beloved cult favourite.
