I seem to recall the shot of Heather Thomas emerging from the doors in the blue bikini making an impression on my young self in those days. God bless the blue bikini.
now that is what I call Danger television. to all the stuntmen and stuntwomen who have the brass balls (or brass breasts, ladies) I salute you all. and if you feel the same way, folks give thumbs up to them as well.
One of the best TV show intros ever! I remember recording it on my tape recorder so I could listen to it whenever I wanted. Ahhhhh, those were the days.
What would you rather watch? Sarah Palins new show, Snookie, or The Fall Guy? That says it all about the state of what they consider entertainment these days...
Back during the summer of 1997,I got injured at work and my supervisor called me"The Fall Guy" through the rest of that year(this show gives me memories when I was a kid during the "eighties").
If this theme was released today as a song it would go straight to number one on the charts all over the world. Classic show, classic theme, long live the 80's!
Tv today is fucking shit (except for Heroes & Prison Break) fucking factor fucking big brother bring back the 70s & 80s come on that's what the weekends was all about
Why can't they make GREAT TV shows like this anymore? Shows like The Fall Guy, Knight Rider, The A-Team, CHiPs, Eight is Enough, Dukes of Hazzard, TJ Hooker, Diff'rent Strokes, Hunter, Dallas, etc, etc, etc. TV today is WORTHLESS!! Hey TV producers are you reading this? Glen A. Larson was about the BEST TV show maker ever!
@7086brandon Not to mention: Dukes of Hazzard, Knight Rider, Starsky & Hutch, The A-Team, Airwolf, Simon & Simon, Matt Houston, CHiPS, Magnum PI, Riptide, Miami Vice...that's just off the top of my head. You're totally right, the 80's were an awesome time to grow up in!
yeah most of the 80s shows like knighr rider, the a team, the dukes of hazzard, and hardcastle & mccormick all had intros tha were 1:30 or so. this one even has a 3rd verse about burt reynolds in the full version of the song.
Thanks, I thought it was the difference in years mesing with me. I was a abut 5 or 6 when I watched this. Yes Greatest American hero needs a comeback too! I loved that show
strange feelings well up while i watch it and realise that it's been 25 years and i still remember all the lyrics.
Well.... I'm from Germany and didn't understand a word English back then, so basically what i remember is the sounds of the lyrics, but it's still all there.
@sritger ...and the music is even worse. When we were kids, everyone listened to the radio. Radio was an intergenerational medium that connected anyone.
I can't believe how badly popular culture (both TV and radio) has degenerated in every capacity. Not only is it entirely mindless, it is also completely lewd, contrived, uninspired and full of propaganga. I stopped watching and listening years ago but anytime I get a glimpse, it just boggles my mind this is what is sold as entertaining.
