The Fall Guy was a hit action-adventure TV series that aired from 1981 to 1986. Created by Glen A. Larson, the show followed the life of Colt Seavers, a Hollywood stuntman who doubled as a bounty hunter to make ends meet.
Played by Lee Majors, Colt combined his daredevil stunts with detective skills to track down fugitives, often facing danger with a dose of humor and charm.
The series gained a strong following thanks to its exciting stunts, energetic action, and its catchy theme song, “The Unknown Stuntman,” sung by Lee Majors himself. Across five seasons, The Fall Guy kept viewers hooked with its mix of drama, humor, and adventurous, high-risk moments.
