Comments Make the Article Worth Reading


The article is nothing special, but the comments are full of great references to "The Fall Guy."

I posted my favorite below, in case people didn't want to read all the way through. I love the theme song, and thought this was quite clever.

Well, I'm not the kind to kiss and tell, But I've been seen with Scarlett.
I'm never seen with anything less than a nine, so fine. 
I've been on fire with Lucy Liu,
Gone fast with a girl named J-LO, 
But somehow they just don't end up as mine. 

It's a death defyin' life I lead, 
I take my chances. 
I die for a livin' in the movies and TV. 
But the hardest thing I ever do 
Is watch my leadin' ladies 
Kiss some other guy while I'm bandagin' my knee. 

I might fall from a tall building, 
I might roll a brand new car. 
'Cause I'm the unknown stuntman that made Brad Pitt such a star. 

I never spend much time in school
But I taught ladies plenty. 
t's true I hire my body out for pay, Hey Hey. 

I've gotten burned over Angelina, 
Blown up for Hathaway 
But when I end up in the hay it's only hay, Hey Hey. 
I might jump an open drawbridge,
Or Tarzan from a vine. 
'Cause I'm the unknown stuntman that makes Matt Damon look so fine.

Too funny! I like the update. I don't know if a show like that would work today, but I loved it growing up. What 80's kid didn't have a Heather Thomas bikini poster? I know I did. Lol
