BS idea as far as what it could do, but it was cool looking. I agree on Knight Rider, and someone tell me that car wasn't gay. Which Batmobile?

He's been here for 7 or 8 years AFAIR. I've never seen him that I know of, but I understand I wouldn't know him. He looks like a street bum, scruffy beard & all & supposedly is wheelchair bound now, due to injuries from a wreck or something. He's very reclusive & has a wife or live - in girlfriend. I think he's supposedly staying pretty clean & sober, except for the pain pills he has to take. Somewhere, there's a website that goes into similar detail, tho my info is second-hand only from a couple of friends who have dealt with him over the years.

According to IMDb, "Fallen Hollywood pin-up Jan-Michael Vincent has gone public about his alcoholism and health struggles in a shocking new TV expose. The former Airwolf heartthrob, who has suffered a series of legal and medical setbacks since his career heyday two decades ago, has taped a rare interview for news show The Insider, which will air next week. Struggling to speak after one of his vocal chords was shattered in an emergency medical procedure following a car crash in 1996, which left him with a broken neck, the now-grizzled star admits alcohol robbed him of his career and memories. Asked to recall the car accident that almost killed him 11 years ago, the dazed actor slurs, "Y'know, I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't remember being in an accident." He goes on to admit he's an alcoholic." His last movie (more of a bit part, actually) was in 2002. >The worst part of Airwolf was watching the lead, what the hell was his >name? During the run of the show he became more and more immersed in >whatever his particular addiction was. > >Whatever became of him? Jan-Michael Vincent got into legal trouble through (IIRC) domestic violence. He looked pretty wasted a year or so ago when he was interviewed for Entertainment Tonight/The Insider (I consider those to be the same program, since it's the same production company and same resources and so on). >Whatever became of the original helicopter used in the show?
