LEGEND, the TV destination for fans of action, sci-fi, and thriller, is dialling up the nostalgia with two iconic titles, following a wave of strong performance for classic programming.  Joining LEGEND’s line-up are the cult ‘80s series The Fall Guy – which inspired a 2024 film adaptation – and the original 1970s Charlie’s Angels, the show that launched a global media franchise.

From 9 June, on weekdays at 7pm, Lee Majors returns to LEGEND as Colt Seavers, a maverick Hollywood stuntman who moonlights as a bounty hunter, in the Channel premiere  of The Fall Guy. This marks the first time the original series will be available on both TV and on-demand since 2013. Viewers can look forward to spectacular stunt work, crunching vehicle chases, and Colt’s iconic GMC pickup truck mark with an irresistible mix of crime-fighting and Hollywood satire.

These titles are the newest additions to LEGEND’s rich and popular catalogue of nostalgia content. Leading the charge is The A-Team, which became the channel’s biggest success of 2024. Following closely behind is another Lee Majors classic, The Six Million Dollar Man,

The success of LEGEND’s nostalgic programming reflects a broader trend across the television landscape, with vintage series proving increasingly popular on linear channels.

“Audiences are telling us they want comfort, familiarity and quality storytelling – and these classic series deliver all three,” said Sam Rowden, VP, Content Group, AMC Networks International UK. “The performance of shows like the A-Team and The Six Million Dollar Man proves that nostalgia isn’t just a trend – it’s a viewing choice.”

The appetite for vintage TV has helped solidify LEGEND’s position as a key destination for fans of classic entertainment. To continue feeding the demand for nostalgic shows, LEGEND will also premiere the original Charlie’s Angels TV series from the 1970s in August.
