    Pilot. Season 1

    Pilot

    The United States' Office of Special Assignments, researching methods of enhancing the physical capabilities of humans, develops a miraculous power pill that will endow great strength, heightened sensory input and propulsion capacity. Unfortunately, the only person whose unique metabolism makes him a suitable subject for this experiment is a timid shoe clerk named Stanley H. Beamish (Alan Young). A ne'er-do-well who seems to be constantly frustrating his girl friend Gloria and their boss Mr. Finney (Jesse White), Stanley is certainly headed for further complications with the introduction of his new government responsibilities. When the head of the OSA is kidnapped by a deadly Soviet dance company (Yes, a dance company), Stanley is pressed into service and saves the day. He is rewarded with plaudits from his superiors and a better fitting pair of flying pants.
