amazing

full series of MacGyver and both films. thats all i want from this, thats what i got. who actually cares about the packaging or bonus' and special features, when you have all MacGyver episodes? i certainly dont, as long as i can see RDA doing what he does best, then it has to be 5 out of 5. true MacGyver fans will never rate this down

Great product but CHEAP packaging!

My husband and I are ardent Macgyver fans. I got this as a Father's Day gift for him this year. Amazon shipping was fast as usual, but lo and behold, when we got it we were SHOCKED to see how small the DVD set is and how CHEAP the packaging is! We were expecting something better, more spectacular to hold our beloved Macgyver DVDs. The packaging is all made of paper and doesn't seem like it will last very long.

The DVD qualities are OK. After spending so much you would think at least the DVDs would be held in some sort of plastic cases, not in paper cases. I guess this type of packaging is better for the environment, but it certainly is not up to standard for a complete season set! We were very disappointed. 5 stars for the series, 1 star for the packaging, thus the 3-star rating!

A great set for any MacGyver fan

More tv shows need to be released in season sets like this one. In fact the studio need to flip how they release tv shows and sell the complete shows first, then the season sets. But, if few shows were to even get the full treatment, this would be one that deserved it!

I know originally when this came out, many fans who had been buying the season sets felt betrayed after this set came out with the tv movies in it. With any luck, now that those films are coming out on their own finally, fans will feel better about giving this show (and release) the 5 start rating it deserves.

Great show, poor packaging...

As a longtime fan who (like many) waited patiently through a long period for the show to arrive on DVD, and purchased the individual season sets faithfully on their release dates, the content itself of those sets does not disappoint, although special features would have been nice. Given that this collected set was released later, some extras would perhaps have been expected, and to see even the packaging on this collection become more miniscule is puzzling.

I was intrigued by the two additional TV movies included, since I had not even been aware of their existence at all... but it appears that the pair will be released as a separate product for $15 on June 15, 2010 - so anyone wanting only these may want to wait: MacGyver: The TV Movies

It's going to be a good summer for some looong overdue '80s adventure series, which I never expected to appear on DVD.... :)
Tales of the Gold Monkey: Complete Series
Street Hawk: The Complete Series

Will patiently, or not, wait for a release of the movies...

As a proud owner of the individual seasons I actually considered selling them and buying the Complete Series just to get the movies. Alas, after reviewing the reviews and peeking at a friend's recent purchase, I have decided against doing so. I love the show and want to keep my very nicely packaged individual seasons. For now I will have to do without the two movies and hope that they will eventually be released as a stand alone item.
