The Greatest American Hero: Season 03

The third and final season of The Greatest American Hero finds mild-mannered high-school teacher Ralph Hinkley (William Katt) continuing to battle evil and right wrongs on behalf of the FBI with the help of a super-powered flying red suit, presented to him by space aliens in season one. Those selfsame aliens make a return appearance in the first episode of season three, to save Ralph's life after he has rescued FBI agent Bill Maxwell (Robert Culp) from a band of neo-Nazis. The good news is that Ralph is finally given a new book of instructions for the suit to replace the one he lost in the series' opener. The bad news is that this book also disappears before Ralph can fully grasp the extent of the powers he has been given vis-à-vis his remarkable red wardrobe. Some changes have been made for the series' valedictory season. After suffering through one too many "suit scenarios," Ralph's attorney girlfriend, Pam Davidson (Connie Sellecca), considers ending the relationship, but she changes her mind and agrees to marry him (whereupon her character name is altered to "Davidson-Hinkley"). Also, the group of remedial-education students who in the past have popped up to help Ralph in his various exploits have been more or less written out of the series, though three of them -- Rhonda (Faye Grant), Cyler (Jesse D. Goins), and Rodriguez (Don Cervantes) -- continue to make appearances from time to time. The cancellation of The Greatest American Hero in February 1983 left four of the completed episodes unaired on ABC; these episodes have, however, been included in the series' syndication package, as has the two-hour pilot film for the unsold 1986 spin-off, "The Greatest American Heroine." ~ All Movie Guide
