The next-to-last season of “MacGyver” continued is
a fan favorite. Featuring 21 episodes we have everything
from an episode where Mac helps dig for the tomb of Alexander
the Great where someone is causing accidents at the dig
for personal reasons to Mac’s nemesis Murdoc (Michael Des
Barnes) imploring Mac to help save his sister. Murdoc elects
to come out of retirement but Homicide International demands
that Murdoc take out Mac to demonstrate his desire to rejoin
the organization. Murdoc is, of course, conflicted because
Mac helped him and because he’s the only blemish on an otherwise
perfect killing record. Richard Dean Anderson continues
to be terrific form as Mac and the series continued pumping
out a number of terrific adventures during season six.
Image & Sound:
Picture quality for a series from a decade ago looks
pretty decent but it could have been cleaned up a bit more.
MacGyver definitely could have used one of his famous paperclips
or other misc. materials to spruce this up. I’m a bit disappointed
at how soft the picture is occasionally. Clarity is decent
and color good but it could be a whole lot better. The mono
sound hasn’t really been enhanced all that much; it appears
that it’s been compressed a bit here and there so the dialog
and sound effects are a trifle louder than I expected. ---
