Believe it or not, a "Greatest American Hero" reboot is headed to the small screen and will apparently be set in Cleveland. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the lead role will be played by Hannah Simone, best known for her role as Cece on six seasons of "New Girl." She'll play Meera, described as a "30-year-old Cleveland woman whose talents include drinking tequila, singing karaoke and not much else," that is, until "some aliens entrust her with a super suit to protect the planet."

Robert Culp’s character made the show worth watching.

It was just a very small part of the first pilot episode.
The gangster had used the suit to enrich himself. When the aliens came to take the suit he was very old, and about to die.
When he finds out that Ralph has lost the instructions to the suit, he dies laughing.................

Oh good, another upcoming program that I can ignore because I didn’t watch it when it originally aired.

The show might be crap, but it might be worth watching to see Hannah Simone wearing skintight spandex.

Another re-boot with the male lead replaced by a female for no apparent reason.

The show was kind of silly but I think it was meant to be that way - William Katt (son of Barbara Hale, known as Della Street to Perry Mason fans) starred and Robert Culp was his handler of sorts.

I don’t remember any of that and I watched at least most of the series.
From what I remember, Bill and Ralph were in the desert, the car dies, Bill’s dead partner shows up, the aliens give out the suit, and the manual is dropped.

All of the stupidity of Howard the Duck with none of the production values.

I’m not watching it either way. GRRL POWER jumped the shark a long time ago.

I looked up the Wikipedia entry.
What you describe sounds like the episode “Don’t mess around with Jim” or similar.
