    Re: The fall guy.

    I used to enjoy watching 'The Fall Guy', so much so that I now have the first two series on DVD. Heather Thomas was lush.

    Don't forget Colt Seavers' brown GMC pick up truck which got plenty of action. Most episodes featured a vehicle chase of some sort. Because it was the early '80s, there were plenty of now-classic muscle cars (which at the time were probably just seen as old cars) getting pushed to the limits.

          Me too! Loved it as a kid. Its laughable now though....Lee Majors looks and speaks like hes constipated...Douglas Barr was such a bell, he truly was in that show. Heather Thomas? As a kid I thought she was 'lovely' but as a 33 yr old, well, phwoarrrrr!!! Shes still sexy today.

            its being shown on itv 4 at the minute matey.
            at 5 i think.

            cant believe heather is only 33.

            she must have been very young in the fall guy.

                It had a great theme tune as well - "Well I'm not the kind to kiss and tell, but I've been seen with Farrah......"

                        I thought Markie Post was nicer than Heather Thomas but I'm definately in the minority on that one.

                          did not remember she was in it.
                          i forgot about markie.

                          although she was pretty.

                            there was always good car chases in it all right.
                            near all the chases involved big 4 wheel drives

                            but ut sure had a fantastic theme tune.

                              I always thought Lee Majors had the facial expression and voice of someone in dire need of a poo - constipated. Then on one of the nostalgia shows on bbc2 about the 1970s when 6 Million Dollar Man was on even the Producer of the show mentioned it, or it may have been Oscar Goldman man (forgot his name), incidentally hes probably got a portrait in the attic, he looks the same still, even the tan, or a good plastic surgeon....lol.

                              I did like The Fall Guy as a kid but it is so corny, especially when the fat bloke withe imaginary mate comes on it. Howie was so stupid, good thing he was a stuntman then....thick headed. I did like the theme song and used to and still do make fun of it....lol.
