Airwolf was a great show as long as Stringfellow Hawk & Dom Santini were in it as the main characters but as soon as they were gone & from the very first episode that Barry Vandyke & that whole new cast came in/on it the show totally sucked. I loved it with Stringfellow Hawk & Dom Santini in it & I loved shows similar to it at the time like Knight Rider as well as others. It would be a great show to bring back today whether they just play repeats (only the episodes with Stringfellow Hawk & Dom Santini & Kate in them) or to do a remake of Airwolf but only with Stringfellow Hawk or Dom Santini & Kate or their characters children like the new remake coming out of Magnum P.I. but they would have to keep the C.I.A. & or the Company & or the Firm out of it as much as possible or all together.

Airwolf is a highly sophisticated supersonic secret military helicopter built by the Firm. Its psychopathic creator Dr. Moffet steals the prototype killing a senator. Deputy director Michael Coldsmith Briggs III (Alex Cord) recruits Stringfellow Hawke (Jan-Michael Vincent) to steal Airwolf from Moffet who is using the weapon for Gaddafi. In return, Stringfellow wants the Firm to find his brother Sinjin who is MIA in Vietnam. He asks his mentor Dominic Santini (Ernest Borgnine) to join him in the secret mission. Caitlin O'Shannessy (Jean Bruce Scott) joins the crew in the second season after running into Airwolf as a Texas Highway Patrol helicopter pilot.As a cold war military action adventure, I really like the darker faux spy militarism stuff. The helicopter is loads of fun but I like the show less and less as it goes on. The second season tries to add air to the show and make it a procedural more in line with other shows like the A-team. It becomes a hybrid that doesn't quite work. I've never seen the fourth season and I probably never will. This is a show that burnt itself out after a great opening.

I remember loving this show when I was a kid. I thought the helicopter was the coolest thing I've seen. It was ultra high-tech for it's time. It could repel enemy fire, do all sorts of acrobatics in the air, and take down nearly anything in it's way. Now I go back and watch it today and am surprised how lousy this show really is. The casts members are hardly compelling, there are a lot of cheesy moments, and the fight scenes are incredibly fake looking. And nearly every ending has the same helicopter fighting crap with the obvious reuse of grainy low quality stock footage. Lot of the footages appear to date from the Vietnam War era.Airwolf has basically the same theme as Knight Rider, except the crime-fighting vehicle of choice is a helicopter instead of a car. After watching a few episodes, I found myself utterly bored. I do, however, love the theme music.

I used to watch this show when I was a little girl. Although I don't remember much about it, I must say that it was a pretty good show. Also, I don't think I've seen every episode. However, if you ask me, it was still a good show. I vaguely remember the theme song. Everyone was ideally cast, the costume design was great. The performances were top-grade, too. I just hope some network brings this series back one day so that I'll be able to see every episode. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that I'll always remember this show in my memory forever, even though I don't think I've seen every episode. Now, in conclusion, when and if this show is ever brought back on the air, I hope that you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.
