The first Hardy Boys episode with Callie Shaw is "The Mystery of the Haunted House" in the second season of The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries aired in 1977. Callie Shaw is the girlfriend of Joe Hardy in the series.
The last book is : The Hardy Boys - Typhoon Island
Callie Shaw from the Hardy Boys series has been bound and gagged in various books throughout the series, but the exact number of times is not explicitly documented. It is a common trope in mystery novels to have characters in danger, such as being bound and gagged, to heighten suspense and add to the storyline.
The actor you're thinking of in that episode is Harold Sylvester. Harold Sylvester also had a great role as one of Richard Gere's roommates in "An Officer and a Gentleman".
The Hardy Boys television show began in 1977. The Hardy Boys shared the program with Nancy Drew for the first two seasons, but in the third and final season the entire show was devoted to the Hardy Boys.
Frank and Joe Hardy.
The main characters are Frank Hardy, the elder brother, Joe Hardy, the younger brother, Fenton Hardy,the father of the hardy boys, their mother (name not known), their aunt, Aunt Trudy (or Gretude in the older series).

The Hardy Boyz Exist 2 Inspire was published inn 2003.
Yes the hardy boys are back together
The writer of the hardy boys is Franklin W. Dixon.
If by heroine, you mean their love interest, it will undoubtedly be Callie Shaw who is Frank Hardy's girlfriend. She appears frequently in the story and also helps them in solving mysteries sometimes.It is difficult to mention Joe's love interest, as you know, his eyes are always roaming! But it will be a safe bet to say Iola Morton (sister of Hardy's best friend Chet) as he suffers from frequent emotional upsurges when she dies in the first novel of the Casefile series.
Yes, the Hardy Boys, Frank and Joe Hardy, do have a brother named Chet Hardy. He is an occasional character who assists them in their detective adventures.
In my imagination, Frank had shortish brown hair, brown eyes, was relatively tall and stocky-ish, but was shy too. Also not very tan, with pure skin(no pimples! lol)
