When I was a little kid the Fall Guy was one of my favorite shows-along with Dukes of Hazzard, Night Rider, the Incredible Hulk and V the Series. Let’s not forget the A-Team!
Fall Guy, Airwolf, A-Team, Black Sheep Squadron, Riptide, Magnum PI, Nightrider, 240 Robert, SWAT, The Duke's of Hazard, Chips, & a bevy of other fantastic shows really made the 80s & 90s iconic, in how they helped to mold young kids of my generation's personality, & creativity. I thank GOD for those shows back then!
My favorite 80's Television show!!! Colt was my hero all through the 80's and 90's!! And Lee Majors seems like a great guy!!! WE ALL LOVE THE FALL GUY!!!!
I had both Heather posters (Thomas and Locklear) on the wall across from my bed so I could see them every morning when I woke up. Not a bad sight to wake up to.😁
Fall Guy had such an impact on us 80's High School guys that we all sold our Firebird's & Camaro's and bought pick up trucks and lift kits. Too funny!!!!
I remember watching this back in the early 80's on ITV in the U.K, when it first aired. And having to wait for the show called 'the Gaffer' to finish, which was on just before. The wait was pure torture for a young kid like me, but always worth it in the end. Fantastic series, 80's tv at it's best!
The Fall Guy was my favorite show growing up. I just found it on Amazon Prime & OMG! I'm back in the 80's. Man I do miss the 80's. I love this show still.
I remember reruns aired in syndication for the first few years after the show ended but then it seemed to leave the airwaves for forever. In the 90s eighties action shows would turn up on cable channels but not the Fall Guy. TV Land didn't even pick it up. Only the first season has ever shown up on streaming.
Lee truly is perhaps yhe best in the business. Been a HUGE fan since the "six million dollar man." I got to meet Lee at New York City's Big Apple comic con between 2010 & 2012 (give or take a year or two); what an awesome experience. One of the nicest, friendliests stars I've ever met! Will never forget shaking his hand (he gave me one of the coolest urban handshakes ever!!) Hoping to see him again one day.
I still watch this daily on RUclips...Growing up in north western Canada I watched a lot of tv series...I am so glad some old shows were uploaded to RUclips,I wish I could watch all the 60s-70s-80s-90s tv series on here...
4 years on from your post, but maybe something will come out with the Fall Guy film being released this year. It's not along the same line though, which is a shame. Jody was a stunt woman so quite progressive enough for these times. And the person hiring Colt for bounty hunter work was a woman too. Nope, gotta make the main female lead the woman in charge of everything.
Ah I was a friend of David Somerville, and Glenn, which wrote the theme song and lived in the real Fall guy house, and I also new Glenn larson, I was so lucky to know both of you guys, and will never forget both of you, so much fun going to the Fall guy house and just hanging out, the thing was, I was always a fan even before I met Dave and Glenn, so the first time David said, I live in the Real Fall Guy house, I said what, then we drove up on the hill, if you guys are reading this, and know about the Real Fall guy house, it is close to Universal Studios, in LA , Thank you so much for all the memories, miss both of you, RIP,
I was 8 when the 80's started and 18 when it ended, the most impressionable years of my life. I to this day I still have the Heather Thomas in the pink bathing suit in the hot tub poster!
I am watching the series now on Amazon Prime. But only the first two seasons are available. She does look amazing. And she is not shy about showing her body off.
One of the best shows ever, still got my autograph picture from Heather Thomas from 1985! She was at the Cavalcade of customs signing autographs in Cincinnati and I was a young boy in Love
This show is still watchable today with some fun episodes and great cast/guest stars. Airwolf... ugh... why did we think that was good? Like Knight Rider, the vehicle was 100% the star.
Wasn't it Farrah fawcett because she's one of the actresses from that era with that name and the only actress that I can think of from those days she's dead now but she was beautiful
What was interesting was that The Fall Guy debut in 1981 after The Original Charlie's Angels got cancelled and both shows were Videotaped at 20th Century Fox Studios
@@hepchaos technically they were still married, but according to Lee Major's biography on Wikipedia, they were separated at the time. I see him asking her to do a cameo and her acceptance, as well as the lines was to publicly convey "no hard feelings" with their break up.
The Fall Guy an all time classic. And yes Heather Thomas is an very very underrated actress. I would infact put Heather up there with Lucille Ball and Kirstie Alley for comic timing. She was in an episode of TJ Hooker and I was in stitches laughing. Fond fond memories as a kid from England UK Plus Lee Majors has a very spooky Elvis vibe going on I always thought
8:31 Glen Larson: "We never had any accidents..." except 31.Aug 1983 there both Larson and Majors was later even sued for negligence and ultimately forced an internal investigation at 20th Century Fox.
This was my favorite TV show as a boy. In retrospect i believe this show had quite an impact on many views in my life. What makes a man a man. What is a cool car. That it's important to be helping and respectful. How is life in the USA (i am from Germany). Working hard and having two jobs to pay the bills. And so much more. Thank you to everyone involved in that show ❤

Glen Larson created so many of the TV shows I loved as a child, I can't even imagine what the 80's would have been like without him.

You just have no idea how big this show was for us little German kids. Colt was everything and only the top dog kid got to be him on the playground :)
When I was a little kid the Fall Guy was one of my favorite shows-along with Dukes of Hazzard, Night Rider, the Incredible Hulk and V the Series. Let’s not forget the A-Team!
"I like it when a plan comes together"
Dukes of Hazard, Knightrider, Airwolf, A team, StreetHawk, TJ Hooker such great shows in the 80’s
Street hawk was great but canceled only after one season if I remember correctly.
V, I have meant only a few people who remember that awesome show. I loved it. The new version sucked though.

@@Dangerous_Brian Hellz yeah brudder!
We now realize those shows were saturated in toxic masculinity and should be removed from public consumption.
@trhansen3244 Surly you jest...
I've always wanted a fall guy truck. It was so awsome back in the day and I think still is.
Kurt Martin you and me both. None on eBay.lol. I can still dream
@@driver4music19 just get a GMC pickup the same year and make a replica 👍👍👍👍👍
A friend of mine has the jump truck they reference in this. He takes it shows and events.
That truck still look's fantastic
I did too... and the Simon & Simon Dodge truck
The 80s was legendary..lots of talent and creativity, The Fall Guy was awesome, it's sad that same creativity and talent doesn't exist today.👍🇺🇸
Right you are on that one.
Too expensive to pay for a team of writers. Why "Reality" television is so popular with producers and studios.
Yeah load of Shit on TV these days not like the 70's and 80's and I'm in the UK 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'm American, but I love British TV shows from the 70s and 80s!
If it gets much worse it will be pointless to own a TV...
My favorite 80's Television show!!! Colt was my hero all through the 80's and 90's!! And Lee Majors seems like a great guy!!! WE ALL LOVE THE FALL GUY!!!!
Tim Stanley I loved the fall guy and TJ Hooker they had the to hottest women heather locklier and Heather Thomas both smoking hot.
He invented being cool. He was the Six Million Dollar man and was married to Farrah Fawcett.
I had both Heather posters (Thomas and Locklear) on the wall across from my bed so I could see them every morning when I woke up.
Not a bad sight to wake up to.😁
Absolutely Right,love u colt,Barr and Judy m
yep also in the Netherlands.
Crazy on the quiet how big a part of childood Larson was. Fall Guy, Galactica, Quincy and Knight Rider.
What a great theme song...it makes so much sense to hear the theme song was first, and became the concept for the show.
One of my favorite shows as a kid. It never got dull.
That smile when he talked about Farrah
Fall Guy had such an impact on us 80's High School guys that we all sold our Firebird's & Camaro's and bought pick up trucks and lift kits. Too funny!!!!
Yep....were called Rednecks down here. Lol 😅😅😅😅
It sure didn't hurt having Heather Thomas on the show!
Netflix are you listening? Put this show up!
Boxer Dog The Fall Guy is on Hulu.
Only 1 season.
They pulled the first season
And A team and black sheep squadron
Ya right it's not the fare left they put shit about Alexandra arsenal context!
Had that song memorized for my weekly tradition...growing up as an 80s kid was amazing!

she's had alot of work done on her face.

What about Gilligan's Island?
@@timtripp4222 Chips!
The theme song wasn't that memorable. Now a bikini-clad Heather Thomas coming through those saloon doors, on the other hand...

Absolutely loved this show, and still do.
I drive a pick up today because of that show. It was one of the best shows that would keep me inside the house watching and enjoying.
I love this show and the cast too bad they can't make tv like this anymore
they don't have the money for it, now it's all serious gritty drama heavely based on dialogue
They need to release the full series DVD box set. I would buy it in a second! Love this show!
Why Settle for Anything Less? Let both Shout Factory and Disney can do the work for you.

Heather Thomas. Locklear was on TJ Hooker.
tvmoviefan oops,
Still take them both.
tvmoviefan Top man
I masturbated to her posters everyday.
I love this show!
One of my most favorite shows of all time. Beats just about every show out there today, hands down.
The Fall Guy and The Dukes of Hazzard we're my two favorite shows as a kid.
I was 8 when the 80's started and 18 when it ended, the most impressionable years of my life. I to this day I still have the Heather Thomas in the pink bathing suit in the hot tub poster!
Watched every single Fall Guy still as good as it was in the 80s timeless!😎😁
4:16 One of the best cars on TV. Manly car
Heather looks amazing!
I am watching the series now on Amazon Prime. But only the first two seasons are available. She does look amazing. And she is not shy about showing her body off.

Has to be one of my favourite shows when I was younger.
My favorite action show as a kid. It would come on right after Knight Rider on Friday nights!
larsen such a genious producer ! thanx for this great shows!!
This was one of my favorite shows.
My hands down favorite show when I was a kid...followed by the a-team and the dukes of hazard..
incman78 me too!🇺🇸
Me too 👍🏻
Me too and Miami Vice
What about Chips?
@@woodrow0007 Nah...Chips was kinda boring.
Used to watch this when I was 4-5

One of my favorite TV shows of all time. Need to make more like this.
One of my favorite TV shows!!
One of My favorite Shows Ever, Great cast,and production team
The fall guy was my second fav TV show (The dukes of hazard being 1st) and I always looked forward to jody walking through the doors 😍
There will never be anymore shows like this.When I was a kid it was the fall guy and dukes
Every time I see that beautiful Chevy I can’t help but say HELL YEA glad I still have my old trucks good stuff 👍🏼👍🏼
My favorite show with Columbo as a French kid back in the 80s.
Loved that pickup. Wish they still made them now.

I absolutely loved this show when I was a kid
In Colombia this show was a super hit! We all 80's kids dreamed about some day having a truck like Colt's.
I cant believe i forgot about this show, was one of my favs as a kid
THIS was the Best Show!!!
I grew up watching this mans creations. It was magic. I’d dream of being like his characters.
That was a fun show. Good memories!
Loved that show back in the day. A great, but often forgotten follow up to the Six Million Dollar Man.
Fall guy was a great show, I still watch the old episodes on RUclips.
Awesome Show and incredibly talented actors. Loved it a lot!
I had a fall guy lunch box .

Maybe next to Airwolf.
Word.
In matters of being a full-fledged song, YES!
@@NJDVLS9500 air wolf lack the singing part of the song but I say that and the knight rider theme always got me excited for the show
This was such a cool show when it was new. Seems even cooler now!
Love lee majors he is great in any thing he has ever been in.
Brilliant show wish they would bring the series out on box set x
Absolutely loved the fall guy as a little kid, I even had a toy fall guy truck .
Best theme song ever, this show. I did forget he was the Six Million Dollar Man, I always remember him as the Fall Guy
I loved this show when I was a kid and still do. I wish it would have lasted a lot longer.
My favorite catchphrase from Colt Seavers "That's It." when he gets aggravated and angry.
I love it when they drive how much play in that steering wheel 😆😅😄
True but most of those old cars HAD that much play🤣🤣🤣🤣
Play should not exceed 10 degrees (or about two inches on a 20-inch wheel) before front left wheel barely moves.
✌😎👍 🤣🤣
Loved seeing Heather Thomas again,this documentary is very interesting.
The Fall Guy an all time classic.
And yes Heather Thomas is an very very underrated actress.
I would infact put Heather up there with Lucille Ball and Kirstie Alley for comic timing.
She was in an episode of TJ Hooker and I was in stitches laughing.
Fond fond memories as a kid from England UK
Plus Lee Majors has a very spooky Elvis vibe going on I always thought
I remember this show as a kid.
Hooper , Burt Reynolds.......70s hit , best stunt movie

TV shows nowadays aren't the same anymore : this is one of many that defined the 80's - I miss those days!.
What a great show 😎 Hope movie is fun too. Look forward to seeing that great truck again 😁

Damn the 80’s were outstanding.
They were awesome ! I discovered that show when they rerun this on French channel TF1 from 1995 until 1999 and I was 8 to 12 years old !
Ok, can we just take a moment to appreciate how good Heather Thomas still looks, knock out city. What a doll!...
