ORIGINAL AIRDATE: January 29th, 1986 —

This week’s highlights include:

Here’s a link if you’re interested in buying a MacGyver-style hockey table. (Link courtesy of the MacGyverOnline.com store.)


Here are some clips of Paul Rudd’s new movie.

Apparently Bonnie’s will stipulated that her tombstone also function as Carol Varnay’s mailbox.

Oh look, the first MacGruber sketch.

Judging from this photo of the Chernobyl control room, I’d say this episode’s was pretty spot-on.

Robin Pearson Rose (MacGyver’s two-episode landlady) was not available to chat with us for this week’s episode but she sent along this nice message as a consolation prize.


Film badge dosimeter (Physics)

The film badge dosimeter, or film badge, is a personal dosimeter used for monitoring cumulative radiation dose due to ionizing radiation.

The badge consists of two parts: photographic film or dental X-ray film, and a holder. The film is removed and developed to measure exposure. The film badge is used to measure and record radiation exposure due to gamma rays, X-rays and beta particles.
