While I'm on the theme of 80's "real-world" superhero TV shows I barely recall, how about I-Man, starring Scott Bakula? This was an unsold pilot produced by Disney that they ended up showing on the Disney channel as their movie of the week several times.
I remember a lot about the pilot. He gained his healing-factor (his only power) by risking his life to save a driver from a NASA truck that was about to blow, darkness was his weakness, and his son ended up being his side-kick, as we learned late in the episode that he had gained healing powers too.
I didn't realize this was Scott Bakula until years later, when IMDB finally came around.

This show was even worst than My Secret Identity starring Jerry O'Connell ...

It's always nice to know I wasn't the only one who saw these things...
