security doritothis episode begins with Napoleon Solo looking right down the camera to introduce himself and I feel surprisingly uncomfortable???
as the KJB folks pointed out, Henry Cavill went above and beyond on his Robert Vaughn impression for the movie?? which I really have to wonder how many people actually cared about at the time
wait do the introductions happen EVERY episode
did anyone know how television worked in the 1960s
the mountains of Yugoslavia sure look a lot like Korea from M*A*S*H......
I was so excited when I saw THE SHARK AFFAIR and then immediately knocked down when they credited the guest star as Captain Shark
look I really enjoy the ways KJB has rewired my brain but I've gotta stop giving out their honorary awards as I watch this show
omg Illya HATES Napoleon's girlfriend
"[DEVICES BLEEPING AND BUZZING]"
they make an evil double of Napoleon Solo and you can tell it's not the real guy because this rizzless idiot is only ever appropriate with women in the office 
GUEST STARRING
WILLIAM SHATNER
they've got Robert Vaughn doing an accent in this one and it's A Lot
Ricardo Montalban?????
they're going undercover and Napoleon Solo's cover identity is a man from Idaho "who disappeared at sea...while attempting to smuggle small arms and ammunition into Southern Rhodesia"
this episode aired in 1964 so I'm on a Wikipedia rabbit hole trying to figure out EXACTLY how racist this makes him
me, an idiot, getting into a show with a character named Illya at the same time everybody's feeling bonkers about a show with a character named Ilya
Always Be Escaping!! Just walk out!!
just two guys on a vacation to Rome together, normal-style
an old flame of Napoleon's comes out of the woodwork to ask him for help, and they keep having this conversation with meaningful pauses and eye contact,
and then Illya literally goes AND I AM ALSO HERE, ME, ILLYA
Coles Street Pothole@carithlee I watched this show as a child, like when I was 8 or 9. That may have been the audience level they were shooting for.
@ColesStreetPothole I am not expecting greatness! I am having fun!
@carithlee I am a tad envious. I remember enjoying the show.
@ColesStreetPothole I have been getting the DVDs from my local library! I'm sure there's ways for you to revisit it if you'd like
@carithlee Oh that’s a good idea, I’ll try.
