Biography/Timeline

1980

In the mid 1980s, Sorbo started working in television commercials and worked in over 150 commercials by 1993. His acting career also began during this period with guest appearances in several television series such as 1st & Ten, Murder She Wrote and The Commish. He was considered for and lost out to Dean Cain as Superman in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman and was a possible contender for the role of Agent Mulder in The X Files which went to David Duchovny. He appeared in a popular series of international TV ads for Jim Beam bourbon whiskey, known for Sorbo's repeated catchphrase "It ain't Jim Beam".

1994

In 1994, he got his breakthrough leading role of the Ancient Greek cultural hero Hercules in the television film Hercules and the Amazon Women which aired in April 1994 as part of Universal Television's Action Pack. This was the first of a series of television films which aired during the year with the fifth and final film Hercules in the Maze of the Minotaur airing in November 1994. The success of these films paved the way for the commissioning of the television series Hercules: The Legendary Journeys which ran for six seasons from January 1995 to November 1999 and lasted for 111 episodes. The series made Sorbo an international star and was one of the highest rated syndicated television shows at the time. Sorbo also directed two episodes of the series during its run and co-wrote one episode.

1997

In late 1997 while on a publicity tour for Kull the Conqueror and between the fourth and fifth seasons of Hercules, the newly engaged Sorbo experienced an aneurysm in his shoulder which caused four strokes. As a result, he was weakened for the next several years, a condition kept secret from the public while he recovered. During the last two seasons of Hercules (the fifth and sixth, which aired in 1998 and 1999), Sorbo had a reduced filming schedule to accommodate his condition, and more guest stars were featured in the show in order to reduce Sorbo's duties. The strokes, thought to be triggered when chiropractic manipulation of his shoulder released blood clots from the aneurysm, left Sorbo with a permanent 10 percent vision loss, weakness, impaired balance, and migraines. In his 2011 autobiography True Strength, Sorbo revealed the details of his injury and how his wife Sam helped him recover.
