Nah. Greatest American Hero has NEVER been forgotten. At least not for me. Sure watching today it was kind of corny but to an 8 yr old back then it was nothing short of magical.
I was really surprised that Street Hawk wasn't mentioned. For those that don't know in the 1980's there was a run on futuristic superpowered miracle vehicles which gave us Knight Rider (car), Air Wolf and Blue Thunder (helicopter) and Street Hawk (motorbike). Street Hawk only ran for 14 episodes and was about Jesse Mach and and his super all terrain motorbike.

I remember Beauty And The Beast. It starred Linda Hamilton and Ron Pearlman. The Beasts name was Vincent and he always scared me as a little kid although he was actually nice!
@@gh0st879 Katt was confused by the story, didn't know what to make of it. Hamill had the right approach: just accept the bizarre ideas and play it sincerely. It helped that Hamill already had good experience doing Saturday morning cartoon voices.
I can't remember a single episode of The Greatest American Hero, but i can sing the song intro with no problem 😂 Thanks for this wonderful piece of nostalgia of my youth
Tales of the Golden Monkey... I haven't thought about that since I was a kid. When I was in HS, I couldn't figure out it's name no matter who I asked. Everyone thought I had made that show up... virtually no one saw it. Even people on BBSs couldn't help me ID this show (that was before the internet). So glad to finally have a name to it.
Wow. There were a couple of shows in there that I completely forgot about. The Edison Twins intro triggered major nostalgia. I would've loved to see Airwolf and The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers in there too. Great list!
@@datorxodar4595 why hasn't anyone brought up one of the all-time best shows of the 80's, which was Quantum Leap. I mean c'mon, it ran for 5 seasons, and they even did a reboot, that's gotta say something. 😈
The Greatest American Hero was NOT a forgotten show. It featured great acting between Culp, Katt, and Selleca, and it often had great guest stars. One of the best episodes was Don't Mess Around With Jim, featuring Joesph Wiseman, best known as Dr. No in the first James Bond movie. Really well-acted...and the music was always special.
The extended version of that took young me by surprise, as I didn't know at the time that it had been released on an album. The only other theme that I enjoyed as much was The Rembrandts' I'll Be There For You.
I watched a lot of these shows! Thanks for the childhood memories. Omg! I love this. I'm definitely geeking out! Out of this world, I've watched a lot of episodes! I just wanted her to meet her dad! The 80's felt awesome! Airwolf, I had Mask toys turbo teen was a favorite! And the 90's and early 2000's! The pretender was a great show! Beastmaster! Hercules and Xena, Andromeda, Earth final conflict! The 4400 and Heroes! So many to name!
I loved the Pretender.. interestingly enough, I was in Las Vegas, and turns out they were filming an episode of the show there. I came upon the filming by accident. Unfortunately, the actor was a bit of a dick, just ignoring the group of about 10 fans that just happened to gather. Not so much as a "thank you for watching the show" statement.. turned me off the show, and it was canceled not long after.
They missed so many good shows too. Stuff like My Secret Identity, Cover-Up, Dino-Riders, Snorks, Thunder in Paradise, the Plastic-Man Comedy/Adventure Show. So many memories, so little time. 😈
@@villainbydesignMy Secret Identity was done in '88, it had Jerry O'Connell before he did Sliders. And Cover-Up was with Jon-Erik Hexum from Voyagers, It might have been the last thing he was working on before he died.
@@andrewweisneck1102 I think that one was done in '83, Cover-Up was only one season from '84-'85. Hexum died while he was dicking around between scenes, he was playing Russian Roulette with a prop gun when it went off, the discharge from the blank sent a bone fragment into his brain. FAFO 👿

80's was a great time for TV. Heres a few more that would have fit nicely in this category.. Werewolf (1987) - actually one of my personal favorites Street Hawk Alien Nation Starman - based on the movie.
@@JohnLeePedimore ….Always enjoyed the concept of Stingray. The hero came into town. He didn’t go around worrying about dating the hottest girl in town . He just solved the problem at hand and then left. The quintessential lone wolf character who just helped people.
There were so many in this list that I remember so well and was surprised the short time they were on. I thought The Greatest American Hero could be a movie nowadays. Orlando Bloom as Ralph Hinkley and Dwayne Johnson as Bill Maxwell. Modern day take on it. ✌️😉
I was a kid,in the 80's small wonders came on Saturday. My parents let me watch it. Greatest American Hero was my favorite tv show ,incredible Hulk ,Wonder Woman ,Webster,and Silver spoon also Punky Brewster. Wow miss those times.
I used to watch Automan and Manimal,and for years tried to remember their names. I googled both of them ages ago and found Automan,but no matter what i typed,i couldn't find Manimal. Thank you for showing me this and reminding me.
Literally nobody who was then alive has forgotten Greatest American Hero. But, I loved and well remember Danger Bay and Kids, Inc (and of course MASK). I’m always looking for Danger Bay, Our House, and Harcastle & McCormick (and Hawk and Spenser for Hire) to somehow make the digital transfer to streaming somewhere. Also, I’d add 3-2-1 Contact to this list.
The thumbnail showed the stars of the Greatest American Hero and Automan. I never forgot either one of them. Both were broadcast in the 80s and both were about superheroes, except Automan was a professional holographic hero who never failed and Ralph Hinkley was almost a perfect superhero, but he lost the instructions that came with the suit. I was there to enjoy the original runs of both shows as I was born in the mid-70s.
Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air I never thought I could feel so free hee hee Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer Who could it beeeeeeee? Believe it or not, it's just me!!!!!
im 50 now and i still watch pre 2000 films and tv.the best programmes were all used up back then.then came studios using computer generated stunts and over the top acting.the 80s had magic something that could never be replaced.even during some scenes like the g.a.hero when he had to find the lost boy before he dies of cold,the song that was played brings a tear to my eyes as he tries to find him.
I remember "TGAH" (although, in Sweden, it was called "Look who's flying") Automan and MASK, but the latter was only available via cable-tv which we didn't have at the time - and by "we" I mean my family.
I remember reading an interview with Simon MacCorkindale from Manimal where he said a lot of the problem with the show was the TV budget only allowed him to be shown turning into the same 3 animals over and over again.
@reggaemattik5446 His wife at the time, Faye Grant played Rhonda on The Greatest American Hero and Julie Parrish on "V". She also appeared on Voyagers!

The greatest American hero was my favorite TV show when I was growing up and I still love it now.

I agree. Great chemistry between the 3 leads. Funny. Charming. Feel good show if there ever was one. Unique. Too bad they didn't do 1 more season.
It was a great show, brilliantly written mix of comedy, action and drama. Though in the 3rd season it suffered.
I hated the song. "Believe it not"
I usually just found all the episodes I can't wait to sit and watch
Bad timing. They had to start calling him Mr H after the attempted assassination of Reagan.

It was pronounced Auto-Man...not ottoman.
...Government Agent Otto J. Mann was Automan's alter ego so that Walter's co-workers would not suspect his true identity....
Crime fighting furniture. It's all the rage. 🤣

80's cartoons had the best theme songs!
Yes, the Voyagers was educational series
I’m noticing a trend: nearly every show we watched was either teens growing up or solving crime with fantastical powers. I’m here for it.
Of all of these I only saw or remember M.A.S.K. and I absolutely loved it! And was very disappointed that I never got any of the toys.

That said, one in particular still seems to have missed everyone's list. "Hard Time on Planet Earth", Starring Martin Kove of Cobra Kai.
Like every one else, thanks for inspiring so many memories!
Amazing I have been telling people about automan and now they can see him thanks to you.
Voyager reboot... Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure... Always holds true that if you add metal, it makes everything a hit! Rock on peeps! 🤟🤟
Heres a gem i didn't see in the list: Northstar, released in 86
That wasn't a series, otherwise they could have Included Steel Collar Man (1985), Exo-Man (1977), Infiltrator (1987), Chameleons (1989), The Owl (1991), Dark Avenger (1990), Samurai (1979), The Man With The Power (1977), The Power Within (Power Man - 1979), The Clone Master (1978), I-Man (1986)
Tales of the Gold Monkey. Bring Em Back Alive. Two of my favs that barely were shown.
Automan was a fun and exciting show. Very underrated .
I was also a big fan of the 1983 show Masquerade. It had a really cool concept.
i remember all of them .If i had to choose to bring one back then it must be "' Automan"" I t was one of the shows that definitely captured my imagination when i was a child and i even remember that the toy line came out as well that same year which was amazing
I was 11 when this came out and don't remember it at all.
It’s crazy I remember every single one of these shows course I guess back then we didn’t have as many TV channels and services as we do now
