MacGyver
CrimeDrama45 min per episode
When missions fall apart in the field, Angus MacGyver gets through with whatever is lying around: wire, tape, chemicals, scrap metal, and a quick read of the problem in front of him. He works as a secret agent, moving from criminal investigations to espionage operations where brute force is rarely an option and time is usually running out. Each assignment drops him into a new crisis, from traps and hostage situations to remote survival tests, and the challenge is figuring a way out before the danger closes in. Richard Dean Anderson stars as the man who treats science, improvisation, and calm under pressure as his best weapons.
