MacGyver: What You Didn’t Know About The Classic Show

Murdoc Wrote an Episode In Season 4

Actor Michael Des Barres plays Murdoc, who is MacGyver’s nemesis. Murdoc, whos is an assassin working for the Homicide International Trust, is creative and highly skilled in the use of booby traps. But while Michael Des Barres may play an evil character, in real life, he was multi-talented, both acting and writing for the show. Des Barres even wrote the episode “Cleo Rocks,” which is a musical number that aired during the show’s fourth season. The episode features Penny Parker, played by actress Teri Hatcher, as Cleopatra in a rock opera. But Murdoc, of course, is up to his evil ways stagehand.
