- On the day of an important game, star running back Larry Bronco is drugged and kidnapped by a gang headed by disgruntled over-the-hill player Bob Laport. Their plan is to keep Bronco out of the contest, thus affecting the final score. This will enable the kidnappers to make a fortune betting on the pre-game pointspread. Steve Austin locates the place where Bronco is being held, and he and Bronco then take on the gang in a titanic "scrimmage."
It looks cheesy now, but when I was a kid this was the greatest stuff I ever saw!!
AMEN RAH It still looks awesome to me , and I was 6 years old when this first came out .
no...not cheesy at all...quality NEVER goes out of style...70s had style...
KING KUMARI My aunts will never admit this now, but at the time, they had some SERIOUS crushes on Lee Majors and the character of Steve Austin.
KING KUMARI my thoughts exactly!!👍
Loved it as a kid but Id rewatch it all now.
Oliver Nelson's music MADE the show and the great Lee Majors.
I was a kid in the '70s when this show and "The Bionic Woman" aired. When the neighborhood kids got together to play, we often played bionic. So much fun! Such care free days back then.
I bought the Set DVD Series in 2020
Yes. Lee will always be the six million dollar man lol Love it .
No-one actually noticed Apollo Creed getting whipped by the Bionic Man?
And Mike Henry, AKA Junior Justice from Smokey And The Bandit
@@DoctorBrodski Also Ex Superbowl Player Dick Butkus
did I see Carl Weathers as a bad guy
Yup! I was wondering if anyone else noticed that.
Yup
Sure Did
Creed!
Yeah... Let's not forget he was also in Predator, Happy Gilmore, and Action Jackson.
It warms my heart to know both Lee Majors and Linsday Wagner (aka bionic woman) are still acting today and looking great!
Always loved the whistling noise when he threw something awesome
Larry Csonka, amazing fullback with Miami Dolphins, dorsal '39 retired, he won two Superbowls championships, 1972 & 73 and MVP, 5x pro-bowls, tremendous tough player.
Great info thanks
oh man when he kicks the tyres flat 💥👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Inconceivable! Bronco, Laport and Creed went on to have HOF careers despite this little back country incident. The throw had so much power behind it, the air in front of the football knocked out that rifle guy.
Great music, Great sound effects, Great slow motion, Great stunts, Great TV!!
I remember re-watching this episode a few years back from when I originally saw it as a kid. And I still found it enjoyable with a smile. Lee Majors as a first time director actually done a great job in finding the truthful comedy in this episode. Something most directors will say is very difficult to convey and achieve.
wayne beckett Plus, they were definitely a who's who of star NFL football players from the 1960's and 1970's.
The best TV show. We were so young. Great music and this genius idea to show him in slow motion because of his high speed ! Thank you Mister Lee Majors. Forever Steve Austin 😉👍🇫🇷❤️🇺🇸
Legend I have the DVD Set Complete Series
❤😂😢😢😂😢😮😊😅
I would have loved to see Steve say get in the truck 🚚 and go I'll catch up. Just to see him run. 🏃
the music made this show better!
I am am 100-percent straight but the sight of Lee Majors running with a wet shirt in slow motion is about the sexiest thing I've ever seen a man do. Haha!
3:29 :"Why you lucky, sickness... ICE CHAMPAGNE!"
I listen to that loads of times and I still can't figure out what he supposed to be saying 🤣
Now THATS how you play football- or life for that matter- tough, cause people don't play fair.Lee Majors actually loved football, wanted to play pro but he got hurt.I liked this series so much.
What a terrific scene that was! Had me on the edge of my seat! The idea that with all that bionic capacity to wreak extreme violence, Steve deliberately held it in check and used it only for self-preservation. No wonder this show is the one I remember best of all the 70's and 80's shows.
I certain remember this episode! I saw it when I was a kid in elementary school. It was one of my favorite tv shows growing up during the 70's. Carl Weathers also played a villian in two other shows during the 70's that I know of;Barnaby Jones and S.W.A.T. What fantastic memories here!
That what the joy of this episode was, everyone was a former or current football player at the time even mr. Weathers.
vincent52 that wasn't Steve
vincent52 that was Alex karras running
vincent52 and Predator, he wasn't in Terminator.
Now thats action packed fun you never forget weather your 12 to 60 lol.
*that's. *whether. *you're. Thicky.
Awesome. I used to catch this as a child. Never quite understood why he made the bionic sound when he did something bionic!
Watching Dick Butkus blow his stack was was too much! Totally priceless!
Lee Majors had the first really cool "run" style on television or movies. Way before Tom Cruise began running,... and running.
Lee must've loved that belt buckle! Ive seen it in multiple clips!
There was a guy who sold replicas for a while on EBay. I always meant to get one but forgot all about it.
Steve Austin oh yeah...my childhood🤩🤩🤩
Funny how he didn't get the gun after knocking out the gun lol! But still a great show lol!
2021.....And this is still better than any of the shit that make now !!
"Steve Austin will be that man"!
How wonderful it was to see: Brian Urlacher, Bronko Nagurski, Terrell Owens and Red Grange. What an electrifying scene!
Carl Weathers
Before Rocky.
Fantastic video clip. Happy days. Still love Six Million Dollar man. Great stuff. Great Saturday night viewing. No bad language. Entertainment for all the family . Just loved it. Lee Majors was my favourite actor from America in.the 70s. Today I have the complete seasons box set.
Evidently the bionics doesn't only give a strong throwing arm, it gives you accuracy too!!
Don't forget that Steve had also a bionic eye
I wonder how many times Lee Majors tripped running with Bell Bottom Pants ?
Loved this episode.
Had fun picking out our celebrities and celebrity football players against my Topps trading cards. Few that I had.
I miss the good ol' days of television.....
This was very funny ... getting knocked out by a football . Brought back some nice memories - Thanks for posting. And yes , I would rather watch reruns of " Six Million Dollar Man " & " Bionic Woman " than any of those Shitty reality shows of today .
I agree with you
It was enjoyable to watch those shows.
Me too!!!
I'm with you, Walter. This show was a huge part of my childhood.
I would rather be strapped to a spiked chair, forced to eat carob-flavored tofu, and have to watch a Thelma & Louise marathon than endure today's reality shows.
walter schafer me to
Probably one of the best episodes and the only one in the series Directed by Majors.
Trop génial j'adore je suis une fan de l'homme qui valait trois milliards depuis je suis tout jeune je suis né en 65 et croyez-moi il y avait vraiment des bons films et c'était agréable de les voir si ça faisait rêver et ça nous donner le bon le moral
The big question is. Why does Csonka need Majors to tell him to start the truck? Come on man!
And why did he wait so long to start up. Steve Austin can run 70 mph so he would have made it home and put the kettle on waiting for him
Apollo Creed breaking a sweat here for his upcoming Rocky movie... :) Great times. Thank you.
Holy shit those flared jeans tho' man ..they must have flapped like a flag in a Hurricane when he was running his bionic run !
Hey thats Apollo Creed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gabriel ArchAngel But before he became Apollo Creed, he was simply Carl Weathers. Linebacker for the Oakland Raiders. Thus the reason for his presence in this fun NFL themed episode.
Apollo creed would never go down that easy lol
@@Eric_Young2024 He became Apollo Creed in 1975, several years before this aried.
Gabriel ArchAngel Donald from MASH!
He's retired more men than social security.
3:31 Dick Butkus actually dents the hood with his fists ... love it !!!
always liked this episode as a kid ... still do
C'est vraiment un acteur super génial en plus il est très mignon
Wow amazing to see Carl Weathers {Apollo Creed in Rocky} in that clip. He must be thankful to Lee majors for that part. And Lee was amazing doing his own stunts.
I always like watching the Bionic Man pictures try not to miss an episode.
I remember being amazed by the scenes when Steve jumps in the air over them and it is clearly not a special effect. Only later did I read that they had put a spring trampoline in the ground. More trivia from this episode. About a week before it aired in 1975 I watched the Howard Cosell show when Lee majors was the guest. They showed a clip of this episode and Lee majors said “this is our version of the longest yard.”
Man, Butkis dented up that hood, huh? Man didn't need bionics!
My best movie's;never forgot
I’m going to meet Carl Weathers in June when he comes to Puyallup Washington for a Comic Con known as the Western Washington Summer Fest
I figured they'd have him in some of the Expendables movies
Now that June's over... How was it?
Another great episode!!
Aaaaand now we know why Apollo Creed was convinced to leave crime and start fresh, honestly training boxing till being champion of the world !
Thank you, Colonel Austin !!!!
😄👍
My favorite show!
Apollo Creed! 😱 Miami Dolphin's Quarterback! Awesome. 👏🏻
The best sci-fi tv show ever!!
So ridiculous but unforgettable 😘
Action without the extreem violence that today seems to be normal.
Get the Truck started! Just drive the van! Lol
i thought he looked so good when he was running lol
Tonia this was a time when you had real men on television, today you have soy boys.
Saudades dessa série era meu programa de sábado a noite.
Apollo needed to stick and moooove!!! 😄
Holy shit Apollo creed was playing! WOW
It's cringe-worthy now, but great stuff when you're an eight-year-old like I was at the time. I loved that show.
Still highly watchable and far better than modern tv.
Priceless
I USED TO HAVE TO GO ROUND TO MY MATE TONYS NEXT DOOR TO WATCH IT COS IT CLASHED WITH
TOP OF THE POPS AND MY OLDER BROTHER AND SISTER WANTED TOTP ON . LOVED IT
Western shirts, bell bottom pants and dress shoes. Real football gear. They're begging to twist an ankle but not Steve Austin, he's able to leap frog with his half buttoned shirt and large belt buckle. Hilarious!
2:13 'happy to see me, or just got a bannana and some kiwis in there'
Steve austin couldn't even be taken out by Apollo greed :D
I guess all folks who came here are at least over 45 like myself 😄, old is gold !
44 actually :D in Italy it was broadcasted in the 80s
I can't stop laughing at that "ass smack" at 00:42! Right in the middle of all that machismo, which is what makes it ok, I suppose. Hahahhahahaaaa
Bionic slap on the arse 😂
Good to see old Apollo got a look in
lol sound effects back then strong shoes that can pop a car wheel an the best part football can break a gun in half seen it all now tick thumbs up 2022
Que lástima q estás serie y la mujer biónica no la pasen mas tendrían q volver a pasarla s otra vez
The ball made a whistling sound before Steve A. even threw it
He throws a horrible spiral.
Oh shit it’s Apollo Creed
Majors directed this episode
That music is so damn cool. And how did they do the effect with him jumping up in the air like that?
They used a trampoline off camera to do part of the jumping special effects in ''The Six Million Dollar Man'' TV show and when Steve Austin or Jaime Somers needed to jump to the top of a two or three-story building, they would film a stuntman or stuntwoman jumping backwards off a slightly tall structure and then simply reverse the film and film the film as it moves in reverse.
Nice to know, but that doesnt explain these standing leaps that Majors executed over men much taller than he. I always knew he really was... you know.
No explanation needed. Steve was bionic! That gave him incredible jumping capabilities.
tryarunm Trampoline is buried out of sight. They cut the part where he worked his way up to bouncing that high. I’ve seen movies where you can see them run and hop before the faked explosion.
You will notice he doesn’t land in the same place he jumped. Also i think some trick photography with the people running at him being a little further back than it looks
The ADVERTS AREN'T KISSING THOUGH!!!
2:01 That was a well placed pass.
carl weathers must now find this scene silly and laughing..
Eterno sábado à noite!
Steve Hostin, Ciborg da infância!
Assistia sempre, não perdia um capítulo.
Era bom demais.
Legal ótimo demais parabéns jóia muito bom mesmo bacana valeu show sucesso 😁😁😁😁
This must have been a nightmare to film.
I guess the sprinklers helped keep the meadow green in case some HOF football players showed up there to play.
I smell cheese! Lol. But as a kid this was my favorite show.....
Muito legal. Gostava de assistir. Fez muito sucesso essa série. Minha infância foi feliz.
Na escola, quando a gnt brincava, fica imitando os sons e fazendo tudo em câmara lenta. Cara... Esses fora meus melhores dias!
@@josieldeassis Vdd.
Watching Steve run up to the truck (all the takes) reminds me of Monty Python and the Holy Grail scene with Lancelot.
Man, these local amateur leagues are pretty intense.
Lee is like a father to me
Very good!!!!!
Who else could run like Lee Majors ? 🤔
The players were members of a weekend football league Lee Majors played in.
Steve!... Steve!....
Oh, no. It's Allan...
Allen!.. Allen!.. Allan!...
Looks like Creed, Butkus and Jack Youngblood on D.
So that's what a Ford sounds like on dirt...hmmmmm...who knew...LOL....nice.
The bit we're steve gets in the van is almost 'sped up' it's a near as you can get to a person who can run at 60 mph slowing down to possibly 30 mph----it's worth rewatching though I suspect it wasn't intentional.
