Don't make shows on this budget anymore! Unless the show is on A M C and or H B O! Well Shadow of the Hawke was right after the 84 Super Bowl win. I ran down to my buddy Tony's place! Tony is an Air Force fan, and we watched the Premier, which was one wild ride. Just like the Raiders and Allen destroying the defending champs Air hit the air in the same way. What works if the duality of Hawke a cocky guy with a soft heart. Loves the woods and eagles and playing the cello, but can go on dangerous mission and hit hard with Airwolf. What helps out Hawke is Santini his partner who balances Hawkes rough edges out and provides much needed logistics for the troubled flawed hero. Then Hawke's handlers is Arch Angel who sees Hawke as a much need asset. The viewer does not know if its a private or government out fit, but Arc Angel creates a partnership with Hawke. Anyways (I digress) Shadow of the Hawke has a high budget of tanks and troops, as Hawke and Santini go on a clandestine mission to retrieving Airwolf from Libya. Shadow of the Hawke has Hawke pitted with a arrogant bad guy and the viewer learns the reason of Hawke's pain. Fast paced action with real air footage, mixed with an interesting plot blended with humor. The Hollywood stunt scene is great. Shadow of the Hawke get's the viewer hooked.
