Description:
Believe it or not, he’s walking on air! William Katt is back as reluctant flying crime fighter Ralph Hinkley, who would know exactly how to use the red superpower suit given to him by aliens if he hadn’t lost its instruction manual. In this season, Ralph pitches in the World Series, prevents World War III, suffers amnesia, joins the circus, battles bad bikers, voodoo vengeance, a fast-food mascot and much more, all with the help of his attorney girlfriend Pam Davidson (Connie Selleca) and FBI agent Bill Maxwell (Robert Culp). Who could it be? Believe it or not, he’s THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO!

This collection features all 22 Second Season episodes with such guest stars as Markie Post, Joe Mantegna, Barbara Hale, Keenan Wynn, Dixie Carter, Don Drysdale and more, plus all-new Extras that include revealing and fun career-retrospective interviews with creator Stephen J. Cannell and music composer Mike Post.

Rating: - This show was awesome, and the DVD set does it justice....
If you are familiar with the show then you already know that this is fantastic. You could really buy the set just to hear the theme song over and over!

For those unfamiliar, I highly recommend the series.

Best viewed with your favorite frosty beverage in hand!

Rating: - Hero...
One of my favorite tv series when I was a kid. It was my husband's favorite too!

Quirky high school teacher is picked to wear a red suit for "them." The problem being that he lost the directions to know how to use the suit!

Funny antics, plenty of hero scenes and lots of good winning over evil.

Rating: - Terrific DVD
The first season DVD of Great American Hero arrived within one week in great shape. It is a terrific DVD. I will no doubt buy the 2nd season. Great memories.

Rating: - Not as good as I remembered
With age, much of the magic is gone with this. Brief nostalgic moment, but almost unwatchable for complete episodes now.

Rating: - I loved it for what I missed
I really enjoyed watching this for what I missed. Seeing actors I didn't realized were there before they had grown, seeing the whole thing with new eyes. I had remembered this show with fondness and still love the song track. Even now, after I've grown, it is still entertaining and fun to watch.
