Description

A group dedicated to the classic TV show "The Greatest American Hero", starring William Katt, Robert Culp, and Connie Sellecca, and conceived by Stephen J. Cannell. Airing on ABC from 1981 to 1983, TGAH had a mere three-season run - all too short for fans, but long enough to form a nice body of episodes, still in syndication to this day.

This show had it all - comedy, drama, action, adventure, and of course, sci-fi. It took the superhero genre and humanized it, focusing on how suddenly having such powers would screw up a person's life. This focus, as well as concentrating more on character depth and development and less on bad-guy plot, made for what fans believe to be the best concept Cannell ever developed, unlike any show that exists or has ever existed.

The excellent character performances, great theme music, cool suit, and lots of heart, have won many fans who to this day wish for a return of The Greatest American Hero. Maybe we can make that happen in a way that does justice to the original concept as protrayed so wonderfully by the original cast. So stay tuned, and participate. Check out our Links, Files, and Photos sections, and don't forget to read and post messages. Make this an active, interesting community. Share your love for the show!
