| 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 Sellecca) 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. |

Editor's Note
A superhero spoof that anticipates films like MYSTERY MEN and THE INCREDIBLES, THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO joined the ranks of many acclaimed television shows that were canceled before their time. Combining the battle between good and evil with good natured comedy, the show tells the story of Ralph, a normal schoolteacher who finds himself in the possession of an alien suit that gives him superpowers. With the help of girlfriend Pam and gung-ho FBI agent Bill Maxwell--the only people who know his secret--Ralph travels the country fighting crime and defending the innocent. SEASON TWO contains 22 episodes, and was the only full season of the program to be aired. Created by successful television producer Stephen J. Cannell (THE A-TEAM, 21 JUMP STREET), THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO is a long-time cult favorite among avid fans of television comedy.
