MacGyver is the original DIY: do-it-yourselfer. You never see him shoot a gun, he's afraid of heights, and he can work wonders with a rubber band and a paper clip. His esoteric scientific knowledge and ability to cobble together commonly available items for unique problem solving is one reason this show is so popular. Murdoc is his arch enemy who can't be killed. Jack Dalton is his self-centered pilot friend. MacGyver works for the Phoenix Foundation, a think tank headed up by his friend Pete Thornton. The Phoenix Foundation routinely gets called in to solve impossible situations around the world.

There are 21 episodes plus the pilot episode. I have read that all 22 episodes will be on the DVD but that the extras have not yet been announced.
