Product Description:
Season five of MacGyver opens with an elaborate Indiana Jones takeoff the two-part "The Legend of the Holy Rose." Once this is settled the resourceful MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson) resumes his normal duties as special op for the vast crime-fighting concern the Phoenix Organization where he still takes his marching orders from field-operations director Peter Thornton (Dana Elcar). Mayim Bialik makes her first series appearance as Lisa Woodman a teenage runaway whom MacGyver hopes to put on the right track in the episode "Cease Fire". Mac also meets his Chinese foster daughter Mei Jan (Michele Chan in "Children of Light". The wild and wooly western fantasy "Serenity" features virtually all of the series' familiar characters as 19th century frontier types with special emphasis on the troublesome Penny Parker (Teri Hatcher) not to mention guest star Cuba Gooding Jr.). In "Jenny's Chance" MacGyver uses the alternate identity of computer geek Dexter Filmore for the first time while in "Passages" he has a surrealistc "reunion" with his deceased parents. And speaking of deceased Mac's perennial antagonist Murdoc (Michael Des Barres) returns from the grave once more only to go right back after failing to bump off the protagonist for the umpteenth time.

Desperate times call for desperate measures--and the desperate will stop at nothing to get MacGyver's attention. In the fifth season premiere ("Legend of the Holy Rose"), an old friend releases his houseboat from its moorings--while he's in it. Four episodes later ("Halloween Knights"), an old enemy relieves his boat of its belongings. It works, of course. Mac lives to help people in need, even if those people include obnoxious archeology professor Zoë (Lise Cutter), who enlists his aid in tracking down an ancient artifact, and the mysterious Murdoc (Michael Des Barres), who does the same to rescue his kidnapped sister. Joining forces with arch-enemy Murdoc marks a break with previous seasons. Otherwise, the fifth features the same resourceful secret agent as the first four (though he’s relying on those inventive "MacGyverisms" less often as the series continues). MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson) still travels the world on behalf of the Phoenix Foundation, while reporting to supportive superior Pete Thornton (Dana Elcar). As before, he goes it alone: no gun, no back-up, no wisecracking sidekick--not counting reckless rogue Jack Dalton (Bruce McGill), who drops by on occasion to shake up MacGyver's well-ordered world.
Aside from a greater interest in socially conscious causes, like the protection of endangered species, the 1989-1990 season also breaks with the past by an episode set in the Old West ("Serenity") and another set in the afterlife ("Passages"). In the former, Jack and Penny (Teri Hatcher in her final appearance) return as prototypes for their present day characters. Murdoc returns, as well--this time wearing a black hat. In the latter, Grandpa Harry (John Anderson) bids adieu. Other fifth year guests include Blossom’s Mayim Bialik ("Cease Fire," "Hearts of Steel"), The Exorcist’s Linda Blair ("Jenny's Chance"), and Jerry Maguire’s Cuba Gooding Jr. ("Black Rhino," "Serenity"). --Kathleen C.

I ordered the final season to catch up on the best serious of it's time. MacGyver gets you involved and always fascinating to see how he gets out of trouble. I enjoyed viewing the serious all over again and welcome anyone new to watching MacGyver to get a copy, still very up to date.

I agree with the last reviewer because I definitely think the best epsisodes were in season 1-3. Right now I am just getting to season 6 and I am realizing that the shows are becomming somewhat boring and totally different then the first few seasons of Macgyver. I am thinking that Seasons 4-7 are not as good as the rest of the seasons but I will have to wait and see when I finish my collection. I am also noticing Jack Dalton and Penny Parker don't have many appearances either in season 5 and it feels ... Read More
