7/10
Early 1980's Comedy With A Crash
24 December 2006
William Katt proved in this series he could act. His adventures with the suits are a group of mishaps & plot twists without equal in super hero history. This show is definitely a time piece that is not for the younger kiddies now.

Robert Culp is amazing as Bill Maxwell. We know from his days opposite Bill Cosby in I Spy that he could do comedy, but his character here is an even funnier off-shoot of his FBI agent routine. He is always looking for help from those green guys.

Connie Selleca, even though she was pregnant during this shows filming, was eye candy & easy to fall for. She always seemed to help set the mood for the shows she had a major role in.

The kids in the cast were just that, the kids. William Katts mom, Barbara Hale does a couple of guest shots along with June Lockhart. Some other notables guest starred too.

The best episode is called You Don't Mess Around With Jim. The plot is not only well thought out, a sort of Howard Hughes clone who dies under mysterious circumstances, but the show has a couple of great special effects stunts that make you wonder, how did they do that? This is by far the best episode. Sometimes, the writing on this show lacked sound logic. You didn't mind if you like the cast, which a lot of us did.

Some of the other shows are pretty good too. Tung-in-cheek humor, Ralph Hinkley style.
