On the heels of news that Paramount will release The Andy Griffith Show as a complete set in May comes news that the same company will release MacGyver as a complete set just a couple of weeks later, on May 22.

The set will include all seven seasons of the show, and the set might also include the two post-MacGyver movies that aired on ABC: The Lost Treasure of Atlantis and Trail To Doomsday.

Maybe studios should just start releasing complete series sets instead of individual seasons. People might stop buying single season sets because they know a complete set is probably on the way. I know I often think that way when it comes to buying DVDs. Of course, if single season sets for a particular show weren't popular they probably wouldn't release a complete set.

TVshowsonDVD has info about the final season DVD set for MacGyver. The season seven set (14 episodes) will be released on October 24. There was a rumor going around that the two MacGyver TV movies that Richard Dean Anderson made a couple of years after the show ended - The Lost Treasure of Atlantis and Trail To Doomsday - would be included in the set. But that's not the case. No word yet on whether that will be in some later special set (though I would bet yes).

Wow, the final episode of MacGyver aired in 1992? I feel so old.
