The Greatest American Hero - Season One (1981)

Believe it or not, he’s walking on air! William Katt is back as reluctant flying crime fighter Ralph Hinkley, who would know exactly how to use the red superpower suit given to him by aliens if he hadn’t lost its instruction manual. In this season, Ralph pitches in the World Series, prevents World War III, suffers amnesia, joins the circus, battles bad bikers, voodoo vengeance, a fast-food mascot and much more, all with the help of his attorney girlfriend Pam Davidson (Connie Selleca) and FBI agent Bill Maxwell (Robert Culp). Who could it be? Believe it or not, he’s THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO!

This collection features all 22 Second Season episodes with such guest stars as Markie Post, Joe Mantegna, Barbara Hale, Keenan Wynn, Dixie Carter, Don Drysdale and more, plus all-new Extras that include revealing and fun career-retrospective interviews with creator Stephen J. Cannell and music composer Mike Post.

Terrific DVD

The first season DVD of Great American Hero arrived within one week in great shape. It is a terrific DVD. I will no doubt buy the 2nd season. Great memories.

Not as good as I remembered

With age, much of the magic is gone with this. Brief nostalgic moment, but almost unwatchable for complete episodes now. May 6, 2008

I loved it for what I missed

I really enjoyed watching this for what I missed. Seeing actors I didn't realized were there before they had grown, seeing the whole thing with new eyes. I had remembered this show with fondness and still love the song track. Even now, after I've grown, it is still entertaining and fun to watch. November 17, 2007

The Greatest American Hero - Season One

What a blast from the past, found this series rather good at the time I first saw it in the 80's as I grew up, watching it this time I found it to be rather disapointing due to the level of voilence, and shooting that was in it, Another example for what the times were like in the 80's September 30, 2007

Still a cute show

I used to love watching this show back when it originally aired. Maybe it was always corny but I never thought so. Rewatching it twenty years later it does seem corny and the special effects are pretty amatuerish compared to what they can do today, but it's still a charming show and is still fun to watch.
