On March 18th, 1981, ABC launched a television series produced by Stephen J. Cannell about a high school teacher of a special eds class (William Katt as Ralph Hinkley) who receives a superpower-endowing suit and was paired with an rough FBI agent (Robert Culp as Bill Maxwell) as they fight crime together along with Ralph's lawyer love interest (Connie Sellecca as Pam Davidson): most noted crimes being acts of violence from foreign countries. Unfortunately, Ralph lost the instructions to said super-suit, so the simple skill of flying is in itself a trial and error task. Nevertheless, the three teamed up for three seasons of scifi action comedy thriller entertainment.

Here's to a show that greatly influenced me: Happy Thirty Year Anniversary Greatest American Hero!

I know this has nothing to do with Hephaestus, but I just love the show that much. :D
