(TV) Greatest American Hero. (1981, ABC) Grade: B-
Does anyone remember this early '80s TV show? It is entertaining in the sense that it is corny and extremely dated. But there are only so many times that one can laugh at Ralph Hinkley's inability to use his super suit. "Haha. He can't fly and fell on the floor." After the 10th time, not so funny. The lapses of logic definitely demand a high degree of suspension of disbelief (a la 24) and how did that theme song become a Top 40 hit? "Believe it or not ... I'm walking on air." This one is going to Aron's trade counter.

I prefer:

"Believe it or not George isn't at home, so leave a message at the Beep. If I were home I'd pick up the phone, where could I be? Believe it or not i'm nothome"
