Rick Simon from Simon and Simon another good guess but that's not it.

I hope people aren't googling for clues. I have no idea though.

Character clues so far:

Male
Not a cartoon
Crimefighter
Name starts with "R"
From an 80s TV show
The show's name describes the character or is a title for him

Bonus clue:

The show involved aliens

Was the character the main star of the show?
