Airwolf

Is there anyone who hated this show as a kid?

Overall, this has aged badly. The Vietnam references/context that is such an important part of the show will probably speak to younger viewers. One will also be confused by the show's inequal run. The first season is pretty dark with a lead that barely ever emotes, the second and third season are a bit more mainstream but the underuse of Caitlin leaves you wondering what the point was in adding her to the story. And then you have an entire new cast in a fourth season that, on its own, would have made a nice entertaining show with likeable characters but unfortunately has a budget cut so harsh that the helicopter is barely a feature anymore.

Overall, it's a fair rating for me. I cannot say it was bad nor can I say it is good. It's just fair. That's all you'll get. Amazing chopper scenes in the first three seasons but characters that are not really engaging. Likeable characters in the last season but barely any chopper action.

I grew up watching this; I'm glad Get TV is re-airing it!

How it is possible for a private company to get their hands on all these advanced and powerful weapons to their stolen high-tech helicopter since the government isn't involved on this shit? As a film it could work, as a series it makes no sense what-so-ever. Jan-Michael's angry eyes and the theme song can't save this show alone neither the predictable action or Ernest's shiny white teeth. Cheesy fun and the David Carradine episode is great but most of the time this is a complete time-wasting show. The last season rebooted the entire show with a even more lousy budget and the helicopter was replaced with a model. Since every cast member was expensive to keep they decided to kill off the main leads so that one could use cardboards instead ruining the little love one had for the show. Absolutely worst of the worst.

Nope... always loved it
