A staple of 80s prime time sci-fi, this show follows the misadventures of a schoolteacher (William Katt) who is gifted a suit that grants him Superman-like abilities. In a monkey’s paw kind of situation, he loses the instruction manual, so he has trouble mastering his newfound superpowers. The show also features the great Robert Culp and one of the all-time best TV theme songs — believe it or not, I’m walking on air...
