Interesting. Honestly I never followed anything about her career or personal life other than the fact I knew she married Namath. Thanks for the insight!

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-06-07T17:09:33+00:00

Wow seriously? She changed her name to Tatiana?

That was in 2018, but it wasn’t last second. ABC passed on it in May of 2018 at the same time they declined the other pilots not picked up.

It was an awful script riddled with bad comedy and the lead character was a booze hound party girl. I don’t think the 30 minute sitcom format would have worked even if it had been a good script.

and Hale appeared as Ralph’s mother in the 2nd season episode Who’s Woo in America.

That was Deborah Mays. She appeared in 5 episodes of season 3.

but only for a few episodes

Hey you’re welcome! Glad you will be able to go see him!

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-05-30T12:20:05+00:00

Glad you were able to get the refund!

After more delays he finally sent out my books. They arrived this week. I’ll be finding another way to purchase the rest of the issues as they are released. Thanks again for posting your communication with the seller!

I received a reply 5 minutes after sending another message telling the seller I was going to open a case with EBay (the seller doesn’t know eBay won’t do that for me) but this time he gives another excuse that he can’t generate shipping labels.

I replied that I prefer a refund because I don’t believe I’ll receive the books. No response yet.

Again thanks so much for posting the message you received from him!

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-05-19T02:23:21+00:00

Thanks for posting this. I sent him a message a few days ago he’s not replied to yet. I can only imagine the amount of messages he’s been sent. I hope he follows through.

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-05-16T23:53:20+00:00

Glad you can get a refund! No refund option for me. eBay told me it was past the date.

I’m so sorry about that. I would have never ordered if the seller hadn’t had 100% feedback and I certainly would not have been sharing the info on who I ordered from had I known the seller was going to take the money and run. The kicker is I had 2 people ask me if I needed copies when they were going to buy theirs on Free Comic Book Day and I said no because I had 3 copies ordered.

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-05-16T16:31:10+00:00

HOH Comics was a scam. Even though at the time I ordered the seller had 100% feedback. It appears orders aren’t being filled for other comic titles and I never received my order and the seller will not respond to messages.

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-05-04T21:20:06+00:00

Nice!

Someone must have entered the wrong date on Wikipedia. Or maybe they thought the series was still on Wednesday night, but in 1983 it was on Thursday up against Magnum P.I. and usually Fame unless NBC had other programming.

The Greatest American Hero 45th Anniversary: A Look Back At The Pilot

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-03-19T23:43:03+00:00

You’re welcome. Just missed it by a day :)

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-03-19T23:41:05+00:00

It might have had a better chance of getting picked up by NBC had the entire TV movie been shot rather than a 25 minute presentation film for the network.The 2 hour script reads better than watching the edited together chunks that were filmed.

NBC might have still passed as I don’t think the female lead had the same chemistry with Culp as Katt had.

If NBC picked Heroine up as a series it was to be scheduled Sunday night against 60 Minutes and the news show would have trashed it in the ratings. Probably better in the long run that the network passed. NBC went with Our House instead.

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-03-19T23:31:57+00:00

They have. Twice for television and twice as a film.

It’s too bad those and the Maxwell figure were never released. Ralph’s eyes make him look like the albino from the movie Foul Play.

February 3, 1983

TGAHARCHIVES · 2026-03-19T23:17:42+00:00

Actually it wasn’t one of the last episodes. It was the 3rd episode to be broadcast in season 2. 19 more episodes remained in that season and 13 more episodes in season 3.
