The show centered around secret agent Angus MacGyver, played by Richard Dean Anderson, who works as a troubleshooter for the fictional Phoenix Foundation in Los Angeles and as an agent for a fictional United States government agency, the Department of External Services. Growing up as scientists, MacGyver served as a Bomb Tech Technician during the Vietnam War.
