One of the best episodes of
The Greatest American Hero (1981 - 83) is "The Resurrection of Carlini" (11/19/82). The next time you watch this 3rd Season episode on DVD, be sure to take a close look at an interesting scene at the 38:38 mark. Robert Culp must not have been available for this pick-up shot where Ralph, Pam and Robert Culp's
STAND-IN (dressed in a pirate costume with a mustache) enter a room. I suspect that most viewers didn't catch this during the initial broadcast (the stand-in is only seen for about 1 second), but he really stands out on the crystal-clear DVD image.
Have a look for yourself in the following four screencaps taken from the DVD set.
