  • The Fall Guy was one of the first Action Series that made the genre popular in The Eighties. It grants the people who do the dangerous stuff on set their well-deserved limelight, and while it's at it, it takes the occasional chance to lampoon Hollywood and also allows for loads of Cameos. The main characters: * Colt Seavers (The Six Million Dollar Man Lee Majors) is an experienced Hollywood stuntman who discovered that life in Southern California, moreso in Hollywood, is too expensive to afford as just a fall guy, so he moonlights as a bounty hunter. He spends most of the time of an episode hunting criminals who were bailed out, escaped, got back into crime, and defend themselves against whoever wants to take them back to jail with weapon force. Lee Majors also sings the theme song (he also performs it on camera in one episode). * Jody Banks (Heather Thomas) is probably one of Hollywood's hottest stuntwomen. She was the only other member of Colt's stunt team before Howie showed up. * Howie Munson (Douglas Barr) is Colt's little cousin. He had about a zillion jobs, none for longer than a year, before he came to Hollywood and try his hand at being a stuntman together with Colt, much to the latter's dismay. He also tries to hit on Jody, much to her dismay. What the show really is famous for is the car chases which always include Colt's truck doing a Ramp Jump and lots of wreckage.
