My Dad was a director on "The Fall Guy"! In His fifty year career no one was ever hurt! And Dad was known as an action director! Pop used the best stunt guys who gaffed and prepared all the stunts with precision, planning and preparation and rigging! Safety was the number one priority not just getting the shot at all cost for the directors ego! Such as was the case with Vic Morrow and the two children who lost their lives on the movie "The Twilight Zone" ! Because of the ego of John Landis ! Vic Morrow was a great friend of my Dad's who also directed the series "Combat" with Vic in the early 60's to the late 60's! A side note Vic's daughter is actor Jennifer Jason Leigh! It broke Dad's heart loosing Vic in such a senseless and tragic way! My Dad would come home after a days shooting with tattered clothes and covered from head to toe with dirt! But no one got hurt and they rapped early saving the budget from going over budget! RIP Pop and Vic I know you guys are playing cards drinking beer and reminiscing about you're days in the business! I love you Pop and thinking of you on the 16th year anniversary of you're passing on May 29th 2008 at 3:45 PM Thursday! Till we meet again rest easy sweet prince and may you're memory be eternal! You're loving son John! To be continued someday!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙏💔👍😀

The fact Mickey Gilbert and the rest of the stunt team and Fox executives lied and were part of the big “stuck accelerator” cover up is repulsive.

Nothing for nothing but in the '81-'82 season when The Fall Guy was a top 20 show it had 15.7 million people watching. Four seasons later, it was ranked #30 with 15.4 million people watching. So it might have fallen in rank, but it didn't lose many viewers between seasons 1 thru 5.

[@tvsbesteps]

An interesting point. However I suspect that what mattered to the network were the Demographics of those 15 million. If by the fourth season most of the 15m were outside of the valuable 18-34 demo, the network may have wanted to move on. Just a theory.

[@TheNameisPlissken1981]

[@mikepalmer1971]

That’s cool. Not everyone thinks about stats like that. You are absolutely correct it did not fall at all.

[@andrewtaylor940]

There was also a built in economics of diminishing returns for tv series. Back then the real goal of any production was to survive to get enough episodes for major syndication down the road. Because that was essentially free money in perpetuity. To get a syndication deal you ideally needed 100 episodes for rotation. So about 4 seasons (Star Trek was a rare exception). Anything above that 100 sweetened the deal, but started to have diminishing returns. As production costs increased over time. The reason no Star Trek show made it past season 7, is that is roughly the point where the costs outweighed the benefits of making more episodes. To make it to 4-5 seasons you needed to be a top 20 show for a number of years. To make it past 5-7 seasons you needed to be top 10 must watch shows. Because with 4-5 seasons they could keep making a steady flow of money from syndicated reruns, without needing the production costs and risks.

So many shows in the 70s and 80s went hard on the action stunts and car crashes. There are probably ten broken bones and injuries for every "gone wrong" story we do hear. Or maybe not, those guys were good. I love the bonus content from Death Proof that spotlights the stunt drivers. Nobody makes car chases like that anymore.

[@SouthernHemi]

Very cool! We are located in Australia and the very 1st scene in this clip is of a 1973 to early 1975 AUSTRALIAN made Chrysler Valiant VJ sedan, probably from one of our cop shows in the 1970s. (We just happen to be the most experienced Aussie Mopar experts in the world) The VJ model Aussie Chrysler Valiants came out with the 318, 340, 360 V8 LA small blocks and the legendary Aussie vertical mounted HEMI 6 cylinder engines in 215 (low compression version) and 245 and 265 cid. Our factory Aussie HEMI six cylinder cars included the 302 Horsepower six-pack version with the Italian triple weber side draft carbs. The VH 265 HEMI Pacer was the fastest 6 cylinder 4 door sedan in the world! And our 1972 VH Chrysler Valiant RT Charger 265 cid 6 pack 4 speed manual stick shift HEMIs did 0-60 MPH in 14.1 seconds on old 1971 type tyres and was the fastest accelerating Australian production car for decades, including V8s! kzbin.info/door/WcuDXS6ZOF2DHur3gWT2Ig

I can't believe the Love Boat was beating the Fall Guy in the ratings.

I confess that stuntman Eddie Braun said to me in an email that in the episode "Seavers dead or alive" he had performed this stunt(!) However, this communication with him took place in 2010 and he was most likely mistaken. John Cade did the jump and incredibly a few months later jumped the A Team van!

Thanks for the info!

Crazy that we don't hear about more accidents on shows like Knight Rider and Magnum P.I. I remember John Schneider talking about an accident similar to this one on Dukes Of Hazzard, you kinda see why they started going to CGI just for safety sake

As a kid I never noticed just how badly damaged that GMC pickup was after it jumped in front of that Porsche 930! Damn you, adult eyes!

At the very start of this video the low grade clip of someone going over the front of an approaching sedan, the car looks like a 73-76 Aussie Valiant (VJ-VK model).

10:16 Hey wait a minute, that's from to live and die in la, not fall guy, which was directed by the guy who did the exoricist and the french connection, who just sadly also passed, also with the front it folded up and the brakes probably failed, the same thing happened on the dukes of hazzard with one of the jumps, as the brake master clyinder is mounted on the firewall on the left side, and when it bucked it probably knocked it either up or loose hence why it didnt stop and those kinda jumps are the worst on a car as theirs no give, so you got solid concrete on something not designed to deform with a reinforced chasis, bracing and concrete in the trunk to level out the weight

I was really young but I loved this show.

[@danielmeneses2334]
