- "For the series premiere of AIRWOLF! As Stringfellow Hawke, and Dominic Santini, are forced into a volatile world of cross and double-cross, on a perilous mission of stealth and hi-tech treason, to save a war orphan, who may be Stringfellow's son. The exciting television movie begins it's run as a new series. AIRWOLF premieres Saturday!"
Aired in-between the final shot of the two-hour 'Pilot' episode (the "Executive Producer Donald P. Bellisario" one over Jan-Michael Vincent's cello-playing close-up!) and the End Credits (on it's Sunday night premiere of January 22nd, 1984), this 30-second promo (voiced by the same continuity artist who would provide voice-overs to several of CBS's promos throughout the 3 original seasons) advertises to viewers that "AIRWOLF" isn't just a one-off two-hour television "Movie of the Week", but the start of a brand new weekly series.
NOTE: At 00:25 is a shot of "AIRWOLF" hovering inches above the ground, whilst slowly pedal-turning. This is how the shot was filmed on-location, but in the final cut of the episode, during the Finale Aerial Battle sequence, Editor Geoffrey Rowland sped the footage up, to make it appear that the helicopter could perform such rotation in just a second.

Recap trailer
This was not the movie this is season 1 first episode if I'm not mistaken I have a DVD set
No one said it was the movie. It's not even the pilot. They're two separate things.
If they reboot airwolf they could have string's and dominic santinisson as the new pilots of airwolf
Dominic never had a son by the time he was in his 60’s here and if String had had one, that likely would’ve happened by the time Season 3 came to an end.
A reboot should mean restarting the series from scratch. Otherwise, if you want a continuation or sequel follow-up series, then Airwolf's technology would be obsolete after all this time.
manofsan Agreed - which is something that “the true, real” Airwolf fans can’t and *won’t* accept. They so desperately want their original 222 chopper back, but that would only work as a ‘passing of the torch’ - from the earlier incarnation of Airwolf to a new, current one. Maybe we could occasionally see them together in combat as a duo; but a modern, ultimate machine would probably be able to handle today’s threats and technology alone.
@@AirwolfArchive well, the problem is that the whole formula is old and no longer edgy. That's why the Knight Rider revival series failed (the one with Val Kilmer as the voice of KITT). Because while wireframe computer graphics were cool and edgy when they first appeared (anybody remember the intro to 6 Million Dollar Man?), nowadays computers are so commonplace that CGFX is just a boring yawn. It's no longer possible to dazzle people with tech, like we used to, because nowadays it's so routine and common in our daily lives. I think I'd prefer a reboot of Space:1999 with more current space technology.
Just don't let the Canadians get a hold of it again.
