Richard Dean Anderson and Kristian Alfonso in MacGyver (1985)

Goofs

The Negotiator

MacGyver

Edit

Continuity

The line-by-line entries in Debbie's list of options on how to "handle" MacGyver are fairly close together (only one space between lines) on the computer screen, yet when the final "Kill him off?" entry is displayed by itself, there is far too much "blank-screen" space above the entry for it to be part of the same double-spaced list.
When MacGyver is being chased by the truck, the weather changes throughout the scene between cloudy and clear sky.
When the semi-truck is trying to run MacGyver off the road, MacGyver goes from wearing gloves to not wearing gloves.

Factual errors

The 12 volts from MacGyver's Jeep battery would not have been enough to give Deborah an incapacitating electric shock.
When Deborah places the uninsulated bug in the outlet right by the hot (short opening) terminals. If the outlet were live, this would have shorted and caused a massive arc.
