On this day May 8, 1987, the final episode of Stingray aired, ending its two season run after 24 episodes. The NBC drama starred Nick Mancuso as the mysterious Ray, a man with a high tech black Corvette who offered help to people in danger on one condition: they had to promise to return the favor whenever he called it in.
Blending action, mystery, and a hint of espionage, Stingray stood out for its sleek style and cryptic lead character. While it never became a major ratings hit, it earned a loyal fan base and is remembered as one of the more unique cult dramas of the 80s.
Fun fact: The show was created by Stephen J. Cannell, the same mind behind The A-Team, 21 Jump Street, and Wiseguy.
