So I was discussing Airwolf with a friend of mine who recently returned to blogging after a prolonged absence brought from 4-star trips and vacations. We all know that Jan-Michael Vincent died from a heroin overdose shortly after the show.
So I go to check the date of his death, and...
HE'S STILL ALIVE!
Are you serious? I thought everyone knew that he was dead. Apparently he's out of acting, which makes me wonder. What if his agent thinks he's dead also? Think how this is sinking his career. Do other people know this? I'm serious. I know some of you thought he was dead too. Don't lie.

Is this like how Pop Rocks and Coke was the end of the kid on the Life cereal box?
I heard he died in a car accident which appears to almost the case (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan-Michael_Vincent)
Easily the greatest character name ever...Stringfellow Hawke...add in Ernest Borgnine and this show was destined for success....always dissappointed they never made an Airwolf movie....
Damn you Graham, you got me all fired up about Airwolf and then I had to find this:

Now look what you did, I was just checking your blog to see what was up, and now I have spent 98 minutes watching the pilot for Airwolf. Mind you, that was a very well spent 98 minutes, but sill. When Google said "Do no evil", no idea that meant unleashing Airwolf on the world for all to enjoy for free.
Atticus especially enjoyed the theme music, but I still think he is more of a Knightrider kind of guy....

we were always Blue Thunder fans ourselves... Who would have thought that twenty years later, both Vincent AND Ernest Borgnine would still be alive as we approach 2010?
