    Airwolf TV star Jan-Michael Vincent dies at 73

    NEW YORK (NYTIMES) - Jan-Michael Vincent, who became nationally recognisable on the 1980s television series Airwolf, but whose career later foundered in part because of problems with drugs and alcohol, died Feb 10 at a hospital near his home in Asheville, North Carolina. He was 73. Read more at...

    Tbh I thought he was already dead.

    Airwolf was farking cool. Shit I loved the 80s. CHIPs, Ateam, Magnum, Knightrider, Airwolf. So good.

    Duke of Hazard, Logan's Run, Riptide, Greatest American Hero. Great back then, most are almost unwatchable now

    There were lots of crime solving shows then too, Simon and Simon, Hart to Hart. I used to really enjoy this show call Whiz kids. It was about these kids who solved crimes using computers. They always had to dial up LOL

    British show. Was very bizarre and low budget in the classic BBC style. Joanna Lumley and David McCallum. I used to enjoy it but didn't know what the hell I was watching

    All the guys were metals and all the chicks were gems. The beeb made great sci fi back then. Tom Baker's Dr Who and Blake's 7 were unmissable

    If I win enough money to have a classic car collection, a Ferrari 308 is first in there.

    Bit prior to the 80s I thought. Loved that. Was British.

    Joanna Lumley and David McCullum.

    Who was The Invisible Man, youse fullas forgot that one).

    Oh yeah, which reminds me of The Incredible Hulk with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferigno. "Don't make me angry... you won't like me when I'm angry ..."

    I see it's been said.

    Quite spooky.

    Because of Magnum PI? A Hyundai i30 is a faster car, that's what happened to performance.

    Tried rewatching Ateam some years ago, first thing that struck me was there was a female character who appeared in a lot of the easier episodes. Completely unable to recall that from my childhood memories.
    Other thing was how hammy it was, couldn’t get through more then an episode or 2 before I gave up.
    The 80’s was still a golden age of tv as a kid to watch though.

    80s action shows were lots of fun but light on realism. Another 2 sci fi series I really enjoyed were Buck Rogers in the 25th century and the original Battlestar Galactica
