To put into perspective, nearly 700 television episodes and film roles as a stuntman, stunt coordinator, and actor wouldn't begin to describe the stories Dennis Madalone shares during this week's program. As a young, high school, record breaking athlete, Dennis shares his early memories of leaving his home in New Jersey for Los Angeles. Dennis points out his destiny style story on how he landed into Paul Stader's training gym in Santa Monica, California to begin in the stunt industry, plus, stories from The Greatest American Hero (TV Series) with footage shown on this series. A career that spanned decades, Dennis is well known on screen playing several characters and as series stunt coordinator in Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager spanning from 1987 through 2001 at Paramount. Notably, Dennis speaks of his in-depth stories on how the long, but productive days, went in front of the camera and behind the camera with producers to complete stunts on first season TNG episodes "Heart of Glory" and "Where No One has Gone Before." Dennis and wife Linda L.C. Madalone, discuss her stunts on the Star Trek series and his workout regimen while resisting craft services to stunt-double at peak performance.
