  Summary

 

 
MacGyver is a non-violent action-adventure hero. Faced with danger, MacGyver’s first reaction is always to stop for a moment and think.

Armed with only a Swiss Army Knife, a roll of Duct tape, and whatever materials happen to be lying around, ex-DXS agent, and now field operative for the Phoenix Foundation, MacGyver applies common sense and basic principles of science to imaginatively outwit his adversaries. 

Starring Richard Dean Anderson, MacGyver was created by Lee David Zlotoff and executive produced by Henry Winkler. It ran from September 29, 1985 to May 21, 1992 on the ABC network. It was filmed primarily in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, with seasons one, two and seven being filmed in Los Angeles California, USA. Two made-for-TV movies were produced in 1994, and in 2006 Richard Dean Anderson reprised his role of MacGyver in a Debit MasterCard Super Bowl XL television commercial.
