  • I liked the two episodes with Martine Beswick as the Black Widow and some of Robert Webber's lines in the pilot. Admittedly, i saw more of the Antony Hamilton episodes than the Jon Erik Hexum ones.

  • Jennifer O'Neill is so classy you could use her pubes as dental floss.

  • I loved the show Cover Up. I was just 12 when Jon died and I was very sad. I wanted to be just like him. Thanks for the great memories Jon, you are missed.

  • I loved this show. I remember I turned 12 the day before he died. I wanted to be just like him when I was a kid. Thanks for all the memories Jon, you are missed.

  • I loved this show when I was a kid and I remembered when he died it was the day after I turned 12. I loved Voyagers too. Where have all the good shows gone? Now just reality t.v.....how boring. You are missed Jon. Thanks for all the memories.

  • I made a full version of Elizabeth "E.G." Daily singing this song.

  • What a hottie!!!!

  • jenifer o neill

  • This was my favourite programme when I was a kid

  • I'd kinda' like to know who won the European song competition.

  • @williamwdavis Gothenburg in 1985 Was won by Norway La Det Swinge

  • Just think, he was that big in the chest and arms without any steroids. He was the sexiest man. RIP

  • I loved this show when it aired, but my favorite tv show with Jon-Erik Hexum was "Voyagers"

    I never knew he died, I just found out today, life sucks.

  • Great show!

  • I always imagined this as my background music if I was an actor making a promo vid. Cool show. He's tough yet good-looking. Man I miss the 80's!

  • jon erik hexum was gorgeous.

  • I loved this series and especially looking at the gorgeous late John Erik Hexum. He could have gone so far if that tragic accident had't occurred.

  • Serial mojego dzieciństwa.

  • This tv series was popular in former Yugoslavia. It was broadcast on TV NS (Televison Novi Sad) everz Friday night at 20.00CET. I remebrer every episode, particularly Hexum's last episode - Golden Opportunity, and episode Who's Trying to Kill Miss Globe?.

  • RIP Jon Erik Hexum

  • jon eric hexum shot himself on my birthday as i recall and it never meant as much afterwards. does anyone have or remember an episode where a doctor hypnotized jennifer o'neil's character using the phrase "the water is warm". i saw the end of that episode long ago and have wanted to see the first part forever. i can't find plot summaries for the episodes and it seems like it'll never be released...just curious

  • Comment removed

  • OMFG, I LOVED this programme! It was made for 8 year-old girls like I was! I was devastated when he died!

    Nice DLT on the end there! What a hero!!! LOL

  • lol, I doubt 8-year-old girls were the target group, but it was certainly enjoyable for girls too ;)

  • Man, I miss those awesome, cheesy 80s shows. Bring them back!!!

  • I agree with you Those ones were the best of the best

  • I wish this would come out on dvd

  • me too

  • We can only hope 20th Century releases this series. I was able to see this first run on CBS and later in repeats on Lifetime in the mid to late 80's.  Great memories

  • R.I.P KING

    24 years ago since U left us... 18 okt 1984

  • i remember this show many years ago. always wondered what the name was ..i finally found out.

  • Wow. Haven't thought of this in over 20 years!

  • Damn...I feel sorry for Jon, his family, E.G. Daily and all of those who loved this beautiful man.

  • Lol! This is high concept!

  • man it's so hard to find anything about this show anywhere if anyone has it could you please upload it to megaupload and give out the links

  • i loved this show! i saw it for sale on some tv addicts website for $100. can't afford that yet. waiting for dvd rental, i guess. i know it's cheesy, but part of what made the show for me was the opening credits and that catchy "hero" song!

  • R.I.P Jon Erik Hexum

  • I don't remember the last guy, was he part of the show?

    They could make a remake of this one.

  • no the last bit was from a diff thing all together hes a radio DJ

  • This was a cool show. It's too bad what happened to Jon Erik Hexum.

  • I remember watching thisshow on saturday nights(I think) with my mom when I was little.I think I vaguely remember hearing that he died on the set of the show.

  • i recall my mother telling me that he shot himself with a gun. put a gun to his temple that were filled with blanks, not knowing that it was even loaded

  • right it was a blank which fired a dime sized piece of plastic through his brain, from all accounts it was a reckless, stupid thing to do, but still, damn bogg, also there is a good backstory about his gf, and the peewee herman connection

  • now thats a women

  • I vaguely remember this series, but for all the wrong reasons. Namely, a young actor being cut down in the prime of his life. But honestly, what a load of cheesy 80's pap.

  • Uwielbiam ten film!!! szkoda ze nie ma kilku chociaz calych odcinków- nie wiem jak przezyłbym je po ponad 10 latach;) Pozdrawiam wszystkich Fanów:)

  • Wait! What about Tony Hamilton? He's that other guy who took Jon's place. He was a wonderful, dreamy, fairy tale prince of a man who himself died too soon, in 1995 of AIDS. I'll put in my two cents and say that it is his episodes that I best remember of this great show.

  • I loved this show. I would pretend I was swimming and shooting one minute and in a tux slipping champagne the next. Great concept!

  • They were working 18 hours a day, 7 days a week.

    He was frustrated with the equipment and tired. His last words were, "Let's see if this one will take me out."

    Jennifer O'Neill spoke out against the producers for overworking them to the point where Mr. Hexum was tired, frustrated and became careless.

    He was a good actor, he would have become a great actor had he lived.

    A tragic waste. RIP

  • They were working 18 hours a day, 7 days a week.

    He was frustrated with the equipment and tired. His last words were, "Let's see if this one will take me out." He had no idea that movie blanks have a wax-covered paper wad covering them.

  • de mis series favoritas quisiera saber donde bajo el tema musical

    i need a hero

    eg daily la que canta

    no es bonnie tyler en la serie este tema es de eg daily porfavor si alguno sabe donde publique la direccion aqui gracias..

  • Jennifer O'Neil was beautiful, but this show was really bad. I think CBS killed it after 1 year.

  • The show couldn't survive without Jon. Yes, i think the show was cursed from the word go. I watched the program. Still can't believe to this day why he chose to play with a gun. Stuff he never got to do and for us to see.

  • It does seem crazy that he played with the gun, yes; but he honestly believed it was safe. Many of us have done stupid things when we've been bored or frustrated. Of course one could argue that the studio was massively negligent in having left him with the gun. It should have been taken away when filming stopped. Twenty four years too late to worry about that, though. :(

  • j'étais en france en 1988 est ce que c'était diffusé ? car je ne m'en souviens pas !

  • I never seen that ! and I didn't know this man died like that, it is sad !

  • Mon dieu, je regardais cette série quand j'étais petite, à la fin des années 80. J'adorais Jon Erik Hexum. C'étais mon héros. Presque vingt ans plus tard, je l'adore toujours autant. A french fan.

  • Jeunes annees 80's (82)

  • Happy 50th birthday Jon!

    U was and still are my biggest idol!!!

    U will always be remeberd by your fans!

    (1957-11-05***1984-10-18)

    R.I.P

  • Wow, he'd be 50 if he were still alive? Where have the years gone? I can still remember his death like it were yesterday. What an absolute shame.

    The show went on for another season or so with another actor, but then folded.

  • Happy 50th birthday Jon!

    U was and still are my biggest idol!!!

  • Jon was so fine!

  • I loved Jon Erik and adored Cover up. I must admit as a teen I always had a creepy feeling when Jon Erik's name was shot in the credits, then when he had his accident and later died I almost freaked. BRRRR!

  • Yes, academy is right, EG Daily is singing the theme. I really like her rendition of it. Too bad she never sang more in the 80's teen movies she was in. Would have been awesome to hear her in Valley Girl.

  • mi amor... aun me emociona al escuchar la musica ¡¡como me gustaba¡

  • TVP wyemitowala ten serial tylko raz (w czwartki o 21, roku bodajze 94), potem powtorka byla na Polsacie, ale w bardzo niesprzyjacym dla telewidzow czasie - wczesnym popoludniem (pamietam jak uciekalam z ostatnich godzin lekcyjnych w podstawowce zeby tylko sie zalapc :)) I na tym koniec niestety. A tyle wspomnien powraca gdy oglada sie ten poczatek i slucha tej muzyki... ahhh. Teraz mam 23 lata a wspomnienia wciaz zywe :)

  • First hero of my childhood.Before Arnie an others action hero.

  • First hero of my childhood.Before Arnie and others action hero..Most popular TV series in Yugoslavia.

  • He was so handsome.

  • I always think of Jon-Erik when I hear that song.

  • THE BEST MEN ON EARTH

  • Kocham ten film i ogromnie żałuję, iż TVP go nie emituje. What's a pitty.

  • thx za wstawke...pamietam swietnie..szkoda ze nasza tv publiczna nie chce tego wyemitowac...

  • This is E.G. Daily singing the theme song...she was dating Jon at the time of his death.

  • This is E.G. Daily singing the theme song...she was dating Jon at the time of his death. Academywin... EG Daily as in Tommy Pickles from Rug Rats. It is strange to hear it now. I love it by Bonnie Tyler.

  • lol...thx za wstawke...pamietam swietnie..szkoda ze nasza tv publiczna nie chce tego wyemitowac...

  • lol...thx za wstawke...pamietam swietnie..szkoda ze nasza tv publiczna nie chce tego wyemitowac...

  • I downloaded this song on my cell phone. Bonnie Tyler sings the song. Wish we could the clock back to 1984. Why??

  • Fantastic... I´m from Brasil and I loved "Cover Up" episodes when I was a kid!!! Jon-Erik Hexum, Jennifer O´Neill, Antony Hamilton... great talents!!!

    Hey, I´d like to watch the complete opening sequence... Is it possible??

    Thanks...

  • Wow! What memories- I loved this show! And Jon-Erik! It's so cool to see this!

  • I loved this series when I was a kid! I was in love with Jon Erik and was devastated when he died. Thanks for this video I've been looking for Cover Up videos for forever!

  • This is the best serie I have ever watched when I was a child. Pity it's nowhere on the Internet to watch.

  • thanksss .. i really wawnted to watch itttt

  • Makes me cringe at his name coming up as a gunshot is to it. Very creepy.

  • Sounds like EG Daily, JEH's girlfriend at the time, sang the opening theme.

  • This is one of the episodes before he died

  • how he died

  • he died when he was playing with a gun on set

  • he was hamming it up with crew members during a delay in filming and jokingly said "can you believe this crap?", put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger. it was a .44 magnum with blanks, but apparently Hexum didn't realize that a magnum--even with blanks--fired at point blank range can be fatal. When it happened, i was around 12 and found it hard to believe that this young, handsome actor with his life and career in front of him was gone. My sister loved both Cover-Up and Voyagers.

  • @cristinablueranger On October 12, 1984, between filming scenes on the set of Cover Up, Hexum was critically wounded after he placed a .44 Magnum prop gun loaded with blanks to his temple and pulled the trigger.[ Police later reported that Hexum had been playing Russian roulette, having loaded three empty cartridges and two blanks into the cylinder. He eventually placed the gun to his head and, after saying, "Let's see if I've got one for me!" pulled the trigger. (accident )

  • Damn...I think I've seen the credits before, but I didn't realize how eerie it is when his name pops up. I know they aired a few episodes after his death, but I'm guessing the producers couldn't have edited new footage into the credits?

  • Thanks, someone had this posted but they took it down. The opening makes me cringe a bit when Jon's' name comes up. They could have thought of something better I think. Love G.
