I grew up wanting to be MacGyver. This question will elicit a lot of responses about making a bomb from a stick of gum, a paperclip, a tube of toothpaste and a microwave, but in all seriousness, MacGyver rocked!
He never used a gun (except for two episodes where they dressed him like Rambo in the orient), always used his mind as much if not more than his muscles, and always got the girl. Bond meets Mr. Wizard.
I can hear the theme music in my head as I type...................

I think he could have stopped 9/11 captured Bin Laden and ousted Saddam with just a pocket knife and some duct tape. He would have needed that fat balding guy from the Phoenix Foundation to help him though.

It was and still is an awesome show. The overall theme of the show was to find a way to get out of a bad situation by using your mind instead of violence and that you should never give up because there is always another way. Yep, that's my take on it.

I've only seen parts of it on Lifetime, TV Land or Hallmark. It can be fun to a point, but it seems overly-contrived. Often there is an anti-gun sermon, and I hate that. Tia Carrere bending over in a swimsuit makes at least one episode worth watching.

Brilliant tv show. Did wonders for my self-confidence and hope for the future. The guy was a genius...got me interested in technicalities of the world. Now I'm in college getting a degree in molecular biology because of him...

A classic, but I was more into shows such as Miami Vice and Knight Rider. Lol!
