Another Super Machine show that lasted 13 episodes only was Automan which too was produced by ABC and was very expensive. The ratings was good but not as big to renew or complete the full 21 episode package. ABC is not equipped to do Super Adventure Shows.
As a kid I used to ride my bicycle with that famous REVERSE COUNTDOWN 10 9 8 .....3 2 1. Such was your popularity on the other side of the globe that is in INDIA. After 30 years you are still fresh in memories.
Oh man! I made that Street Hawk GTA clip : ) There is a new version up on my channel now. I love the idea and would definitely play it! Street Hawk is my favorite show of the 80's
I think Street Hawk has a lot of potential to be an awesome action drama series today (real action, not that gaming platform thing). It could be a reboot, but I like the idea of a sequel better, passing the torch to a new pilot while Jesse could take the role Norman had back in the day. I also think that, aesthetically speaking, the 2014 Robocop Reboot can give potential producers a lot of ideas on how the new Street Hawk should look like. Make it happen!
some people might say "The Jesse character has been around for 30 years. He's too old to do that stuff. Let him advise while a younger character rides the bike." No! If you're good at something, you can keep doing it circles around the young punks. Also, they tried to do the reboot of Knight Rider with the younger character, new tech, new fx, and LOOK at what an abysmal failure that was. Anybody remember? So keep the original rider. Jesse Mach can still rock!
Rex I am die hard fan of Street Hawk. You wouldn't believe its attached everyone in 1980's more than anything. Bike has to be exact replica looks a little longer than usual to me shown in tv series.
Rex, as you can see on all the commentaries below all your fans just want a reboot. I can tell you for sure not just here in Germany because of Tangerine Dream but i think worldwide we want to see YOU on a real machine hunting bad guys with Street Hawk. You were just miles ahead in the 80s with this excellent series. Still watching the DVD today! Thanks for great moments as a youth and now. Hope to see you soon with a real remake :-).
yes to a reboot. not sure on the gamer platform with all kinds of licensing issues. id rather see you back as jesse picking the new riders for a new street hawk team set in countries all over the world (thus generating multinational support from tv companies across the globe). a spin off with knight rider, air wolf and all those great shows that never had a chance to go beyond a handful if episodes. even throw the bionic man in there. can you imagine that level of awesome? a persistant universe with all of the individual shows crissing over.... now THATS an idea! Thank me in the credits :)
Spanish fans don't forget "Street Hawk" even though it only aired once in 1986. I have the Spanish VHS video edition of the pilot episode. Great video. Greetings from Madrid (Spain).
HI Rex, i am unsure if you will read this comment. i was 3 years old when an indian channel called DD purchased your show and decided to air it. they did the same with night rider. you are in the memory of millions of indian kids whose child hood has been shaped by you. a large chunk of the interest you mentioned is probably from all the searching they have been doing for thier childhood hero. the theme especially stuck in my head . i have listented to this theme 100s of times over the years to re live gthe moment. then i saw this . thank you rex smith for giving us street hawk. a lot has changed we now has movile phones and super heroes of various kinds . for me the black leather clad biker who saved gthe world on his bike will be my ultimate. the man the machine the street hawk. love from australia
I loved StreetHawk back then and still do. When I was a kid I was really mad when it suddenly disapeared and Mr Belvedere came on its place. Re-watching S.H. on DVD again a number of years ago I was very impressed with the level of stunts. The Streethawk crew really knew what they were doing. Love Rex Smith as Mach and Norman was the "cool" computer guy running the command center. Everytime they went into hyperthrust I couldn't help but smile as a kid. Thanks Mr Smith for adding to our childhood!
Wooow!!!! i was 11yo when i watched to your show in the 80's. , I used to sit on a chair and imagine myself being Jesse racing with the bad guys on his motorcycle :) Never thought i would be able to do so some day, but thanks to the internet i can. I wanted to THANK YOU REX for all these dreams you gave me as a kid ! :P
hi rex smith, i had 3 years when i've see this show on french tv for the first time and i remember when the music begining i was crying for stop my shower and go to watch tv.... it was my best favorite tv show ever i hope somebody with a lot of money can help you... i swear if i win the lotery i call you to make the dream come true sorry for my bad english...
I would try and crowdfund this too. Jesus Rex......this was 30 years ago. Do you bathe daily in the fountain of youth? You dont look a day over 40 mate. Would so love this show to come back. I think people forget the amount of stars who guested on the limited run of the the show. Christopher Lloyd, George Clooney....yes, George frickin' Clooney and many more. I wish you success in this venture Rex.
I loved Streethawk, and still do to this day. Brings back lots of memories. A lot of elements go into what makes a great show and for me, your natural charisma and captivating acting outshone everything else. I had never seen anything like that on TV before, you are just a great guy. I'm also happy to have discovered Tangerine Dream. All the best and wish you every success in making this happen. Great concept. All the best, Martin
Yeah, cool Idea, we need you back, You should also try to find a way to get the original soundtrack music released as it's classic music, so the fans would get into it again and help support you, the music did help to make that show what it was ( as well as you and Joe of course ) I miss my favorite show Street hawk and the Muppets!
I had written Rex Smith on Facebook and also tried to contact him through his booking agency to get a autograph from him. My boyfriend was and still is a die hard fan of street hawk. One year I was even able to find the Ghibli helmet he wore in the show for him for his birthday . This show reminded him of fond childhood memories and I wanted to get the autograph as a special gift. I probably would have paid a good amount for it too. I never even received a response in this matter and was very disappointed. I think the new concept of the show sounds cool! I am still interested in getting that autograph though. I don't think there is a bigger street hawk fan out there...he legit hates MacGyver because it took it's place.
Rex, just make a kickstarter, you will have much enough to make few episodes ! And i pretty sure that David Hasselhoff would be pleased to play in it !
Rex I hope you got the support needed and my son adores watching you in Street Hawk. Still can’t believe it lasted only 1 season but is still much loved 👍🏻
Hello Rex. I used to watch Street Hawk all the time. I LOVED your character, both you and Norman and even your police chief. You guys rocked! I'd love to see a Street Hawk remake/live action movie. Perhaps you could make one last movie with as many original characters who are willing. Perhaps the government decided to pull Street Hawk and you faded away, but now, 32 years later, Street Hawk emerges, even more custom than it's original form. And you take it out for one last ride and crime solving case. Oh man, that would be killer! I am so disappointed they cancelled the series. Bad timing, I heard? Whatever the case, I ALWAYS prefered SH over Knight Rider (I found knight rider immensely BORING). I preferred it over Airwolf too, but I also liked Airwolf. Still, thank you for the amazing 13 episodes I can watch over and over. The Pilot will always be my favorite episode. One last ride, PLEASE!!
Even if it tooks some dust with oldness, Streethawk is still my favourite serie. I wasn't really attracked about motorbikes when i was a kid but SH brought me an incredible sensation when i saw it for the first time. The mood was full of action, speed, rock music a great potential. But when i said, it tooks some dust, Street Hawk has a great potential but it is sometimes unregular and with some lacks of realism. Best example, Jessie first Stunt sensed to be done by Harley Davidson, of course there wasn't CGI such has now but this stings eyes today. Also Norman is sensed to have all informations on his computer but he has pretty much the fact to bring to Jessie informations and orders sometimes unappropriated or even useless. However, the bike has a 80's shape but it is still appreciable to watch, the sounds of engine rocks, L.A. is filmed on a very singular and personnal way wich make SH uniq. And Tangerene Dreams musics are excellent. I think that today it is possible to make a Street Hawk telefilm by fixing the defaults i said and also to upgrade stunts and hyperthrust scenes with partial CGI. If the reboot stays on a 80's way, this could be certainly excellent.
I never forget being a very young kid I think I was in elementary school at the time this show was running and every episode that came on I was there to watch it and I was like so moved at the way you didn't have to wear a cape to be a hero and you would show up and do your thing and it was just such an amazing stunts and I was thrilled watch the show show and then all of a sudden not sure when I'm going to go start watching Garfield something but that's what happened you know and it was great it was just crazy not to see no more Street Hawk and that's what happened
What if the story went like this? Jesse Mach crashed on a mission during a hyper boost. He is in a comma for 30 years and finally awakes. Norman Tuttle blamed himself and worked for all those years to replace the body parts on Jesse, giving him mental access to the bike's computer and it increased the bike's speed and performance. Jesse doesn't want to give up and be a vegetable. He wants to catch those guys who are still... around. The government gives back the project to Norman because these guys are now a government threat, and only Street Hawk can bring them to justice. In later episodes, his female cop friend and chief finally figure out that Jesse is street hawk and help him covertly. Much... much later, a new generation of top scientists and recruits are introduced every so often, and the adventure continues...... Thanks for being one of my Heros Rex !!!!
I remember i had the tape and book of street hawk when I was a kid they should make a movie of this classic tv series ive just brought the complete series half way through brilliant rex smith etc. classic 80s series. the intro brilliant.
Best luck wishes to rex and the street hawk team!. We want back and well done street hawk and knight rider too. And even why not? A modern a team version. ;)
Rex making a reboot would be nice even as a movie, but you should do it with all the other 80's heroes machine as KITT replicas or A team vans that can be found easyly, the only trouble would be to have a street hawk hero bike to mold all the parts to make a few replicas for the movie as i eard the only one in europe is earned by Chris the stuntman of StreetHawk.
Yes to the reboot HELL NO!! To the game part I loved Street Hawk I want a new show would love to see him come back and pick a new Rider and be like the captain of the team but NOT a game
13 episodes which changed my life! :)
I wonder why they stopped the show just after 13 episodes, one of the best series in the world. Best Wishes to Rex Smith and the crew.
+Sambhav dutt the budget was doubled due to them having to employ union employees. They just couldn't afford to go on, which is pretty sad.
Thanks for the info.
Another Super Machine show that lasted 13 episodes only was Automan which too was produced by ABC and was very expensive. The ratings was good but not as big to renew or complete the full 21 episode package. ABC is not equipped to do Super Adventure Shows.
It was a mega show for sure.
It was only 13 episodes?
As a kid I used to ride my bicycle with that famous REVERSE COUNTDOWN 10 9 8 .....3 2 1. Such was your popularity on the other side of the globe that is in INDIA.
After 30 years you are still fresh in memories.
Beautiful music!! 😍👍😍👍
Oh man! I made that Street Hawk GTA clip : ) There is a new version up on my channel now.
I love the idea and would definitely play it!
Street Hawk is my favorite show of the 80's
and what a awesome clip it was dean thanks bro
I loved this show as a kid. Too bad there’s only one season. 😔

Just like a hard copy not soft one... Series always Rocks...

I enjoyed the new Knight Rider!
look at him, he's barely aged.
Rex I am die hard fan of Street Hawk. You wouldn't believe its attached everyone in 1980's more than anything. Bike has to be exact replica looks a little longer than usual to me shown in tv series.

Excellent!!!... I love Street Hawk...I remember those times!!!...amazing!!!
a suggestion: try to contact a Bollywood producer. Street Hawk was a huge hit in India.

Damn, I caught this action way too late. Street Hawk is and will forever be my favorite series. I hope that it still comes to reboot the series.

Rex I hope you got the support needed and my son adores watching you in Street Hawk.
Still can’t believe it lasted only 1 season but is still much loved 👍🏻

I'm completely agree with you... waiting to Reboot...Street Hawk...
i can't wait to see the return of Street Hawk- it leaves me shaken but not stirred.

an Epic idea, mind you you will always be the Original and best DareDevil as well ;)
Big fan, Massive respect to Man, Rex Smith...:)
I have this series and a damn shame it stopped at season one. I hope this reboot does happen with Rex at the helm.
ciao dalla Sicilia, hi from Sicily Island

Rex I saw it in 1993 I was 17! Great program and theme! You should do a Sequal!
the 2014 Robocop bike could be a template for the new street hawk.
Same black suit with stripes but maybe some armour could be added to the suit.
I loved this show as a kid. I wish there’s more than one season.
Love watching TV series street hawk sexy smile jess marc
I loved the show, I hope something can happen.
Love the intro . Have it on my playlist of songs .
