The Greatest American Hero

Season 3 (14 Episodes)

3 Seasons 1982 TV-14 1h 00m 7.3

A teacher is asked to be a superhero using a special alien suit with powers he can barely understand or control.

Ralph Hinkley was minding his own business, a teacher on a field trip with his high school students, when the bus he's driving mysteriously drives itself out into the desert. A startled Ralph is soon visited by aliens, who had decided to endow him with superhuman powers to fight the battle against injustice and crime. To this end, they gave him a special suit and an instruction manual. Unfortunately, Ralph managed to lose the instruction manual, and the aliens have a nasty habit of never being around when you need them.
