Product Description: Lee Majors stars as the Fall Guy Colt Seavers a stunt man moonlighting as a bounty hunter who uses Hollywood stunt tactics to capture criminals.System Requirements:Running Time: 1068 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 024543426431 Manufacturer No: 2242644
Amazon.com: The hero of The Fall Guy, Colt Seavers--played by Lee Majors, the former Six Million Dollar Man--is a Hollywood stunt man, which lets the show do all kinds of spectacular car crashes with no justification whatsoever, and he's a bounty hunter, which lets him get into all kinds of fist fights and ridiculous plots with no justification whatsoever. It's the perfect 1980s TV show, and it's no surprise it was created by Glen Larson, the mastermind behind such hits as Knight Rider, Battlestar Galactica, and Magnum, P.I. Assisted by his handsome but not-too-bright cousin Howie Munson (Douglas Barr) and sexy stuntwoman Jody Banks (blonde bombshell Heather Thomas), Colt grapples with a corrupt sheriff, a mob hit man, a government secret agent, a neo-Nazi biker gang (which, naturally, Colt had to infiltrate through cunning disguise), women wrestlers, and more, more, more. Preposterous? Absolutely! It's all an excuse to set things on fire and parade scantily clad young women around (Thomas had a popular bikini scene that led to a top-selling poster), while the Hollywood setting allowed for cameo appearances by stars ranging from James Coburn (In Like Flint) to Lou Ferrigno (appearing as himself playing the Incredible Hulk--it's downright postmodern) to Farrah Fawcett (Charlie's Angels), Majors' just-divorced ex-wife.
But what kept The Fall Guy running for five seasons wasn't silly plots or leaping cars. Lee Majors is one of those relaxed, genial actors who were made for television. Manly but gentle, handsome but down-to-earth, Majors appealed to men and women equally, could toss off a snappy one-liner without effort, and gave the impression that, no matter what happened, it would come out all right in the end. He even sang his own theme song. The Fall Guy: The Complete First Season is pure comfort television. (Season 1 is the only season with Jo Ann Pflug as Colt's boss, "Big Jack"; her adult sexiness and worldly wit were much-missed on later seasons.) The only extras are a couple of brief but entertaining featurettes, featuring interviews with Majors, Thomas, and Larson. --Bret Fetzer

I loved the complete first season for one primary reason: It took me back to Wednesday nights at 9:00 on ABC. The whole family would sit in front of the television to see this show. This is wonderful for Fall Guy fans. Sure, the scripts were not Emmy award winning, and the acting was not Emmy award winning, but people tuned in to see light-hearted entertainment and action. It had no message, but we didn't expect it to have one, we just enjoyed the ride. It was fun. We got to see Lee ... Read More

It's been over 25 years since "The Fall Guy" first aired, but time has been very kind to this series about Hollywood stuntman, Colt Sievers (Lee Majors), who also works as a bounty hunter between jobs in order to pay the rent. I saw this show for the first time when I was a child and it was airing on television and I liked it then and rewatching it many years later on DVD, it still holds up pretty well. The show is a nice blend of comedy and action, with some truly amazing stunts. Given the fact ... Read More

I am disappointed. The reason is simple.
I have literally waited and waited for a video release of the Fall guy, and then waited and hoped it will come out on DVD, for decades!
Then one day - VOILA - I see it, I buy it, and I regret it. I was thinking "I cant believe it, this is so good!" And unfortunately it was too good to be true. In the title it says the "COMPLETE Series 1", and nothing can be further from COMPLETE than what can be found in this load of rubbish!
