The summer is starting off with a bang next week with the release of The Fall Guy, a big-budget action flick starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. However, some folks may not realize that it's actually a remake of a classic TV show from the eighties starring Lee Majors as stuntman/bounty hunter Colt Seavers. Seavers was a stunt-man by day, who supplemented his income tracking down bad guys, and the show was almost as big of a hit as Majors' previous hit, The Six Million Dollar Man. In this episode, we dig into how The Fall Guy came to be, how gorgeous co-star Heather Thomas became one of the biggest pin-ups of the decade, and how the new movie pays tribute to the show's lasting legacy.
