How many guys watched this just for Heather Thomas?


I know I did , I mean the show and the action and storylines were great too but Heather Thomas in a bikini com'on that was the best part, so be honest guys

Boston and Philly love to slander us, but they don't have as many fans as us

I'm sure i thought she was cute...i was young at the time...but wow when i watch it now...don't make em like her anymore.

When I was a kid, I used to watch it for the shot of her coming through the saloon doors in the opening sequence, but she was my least favorite character on the show. I thought the show was pretty decent anyway. It's not that her character didn't have moments, but they were usually during the stunt sequences in the opening. But I was around when Lee Majors was still popular when he was the Six Million Dollar Man re-runs.

I have to admit I loved to jerk off to Heather Thomas when she wore a bikini. She looked great and her bikni's were so revealing! The show overall was a great show and it had great stunts. My favorite character was Howie.

She sure didn't hurt the show, but for the time it was good. Good fights, chase scenes with that bad a** 4x4 Chevy and the stories held up, as far as I can remember. Just got the season 1 set and started watching it tonight. Always wondered what happen to her. I always thought she was hotter than Heather Locklear. Locklear has a better plastic surgeon though I guess. No comparison now.

The show had Lee Majors, a cool truck and lots of stunts, so I would've watched regardless. Heather Thomas is what I'd call a bonus. A major bonus.

And once again, I totally agree with you Fluke. I love everything about the show, but Thomas is certainly a huge bonus.

She was indeed, Popper.

I was only 7 when The Fall Guy debuted, but apparently I never went through one of those "girls are icky" phases, because at that time I was all about Bo Derek, Farrah Fawcett, Heather Locklear and Heather Thomas.

QFT, sir! I'd forgotten Post was even on The Fall Guy, but she was sure drool-worthy on Night Court.

Watch Season 3 Episode 8 (Inside, Outside) and you'll never ever forget Markie Post was on the Fall Guy!!

(She gets kidnapped from the beach, and for almost the entire episode, she's wearing only a tight bikini!! Before that, I always thought she was pretty enough, but she usually only wore office attire, which covered her up a lot. Then I saw that episode, and W?W!!!)

Well I did grow up watching The Six Million Dollar Man, so it was cool seeing Lee Majors back on tv. However, I was 14 - 19 when this show aired, so hard to argue Heather didn't play a huge role in my viewership. I even had her bikini poster on my bedroom wall.

reply

I was a Six Million Dollar Man fan so it all worked for me but YES, I watched mainly for Heather Thomas. When they added Markie Post... WOW, pure gold. Those two woman had Three's Company and any other show I could think of back then beat.
