Product Description
Man From U.N.C.L.E., The: The Complete First Season (DVD) In this hit spoof on the spy genre, Robert Vaughn and David McCallum star as a team of secret agents battling the global crime organization THRUSH. Under the aegis of the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement (U.N.C.L.E.), the dapper, suave Napoleon Solo and the equally dashing Illya Kuryakin jet to exotic locations, defending the world from evil, chaos and bad taste. Premiering in 1964, this successful series also starred Leo G. Carroll as Alexander Waverly and featured guest stars such as William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy (of Star Trek fame), Kurt Russell as a young stowaway marked for murder, Ricardo Montelban and longtime comedy favorite Ken Murray. From trying to save the world from fear gas to trying to save themselves from a pack of bloodthirsty cheetahs, this spoof brings the spy game to life with vigor and vibrancy. You may even forget it's in black and white! Get your spy on with The Man from U.N.C.L.E!

First making its debut on NBC back in 1964, this series capitalized (like so many others of its type) on the spy-thiller boom that proliferated in the cinema and on the television set. Easily making heroes and stars of Robert Vaughn and David McCallum as United Network Command for Law Enforcement (UNCLE) agents Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuraykin respectively, (Yes, a Russian and American working together at the height of the Cold War!)they fought a top secret, world wide criminal organization bent on global domination, THRUSH, not unlike the familiar SPECTRE from the Bond films. The series features no-less than a who's who of popular celebrities from the 1960's, many from Hollywood's A-list at the time.
With weaponry that was futuristic and plots that were imaginative and clever, the dialogue and mood of the series was fun and tongue-in-cheek. Clearly an imitator of Ian Fleming's James Bond adventures and extremely popular with with college audiences, it had a solid, profitable four year run that spawned a host of imitators on the movie and television screen--not to mention a slew of toys and books for the commercial market. An unsuccessful and feminist-leaning spinoff, "The Girl from U.N.C.L.E." starring Stephanie Powers as April Dancer debuted in 1966, but only lasted one season and was completely forgotten never catching the magic or the ratings of the original.
Man from Uncle reminds me of the English series The Avengers. Napoleon Solo is a bit like John Steed, an anachronistic representative of a earlier era, always well dressed, but a very professional spy. Another parallel is how a big time spy agency sends just two agents into situations that would seem to benefit from much more man power. And like The Avengers, Man from Uncle eventually self-destructed by getting too silly. But that happens later. Season one is very good.
It's a period piece now, showing life in the early sixties and this is part of the charm. Because it was intended fot TV in the 60's, the violence is kept to a minimum. Don't expect the kind of violence that you see on today's show, it isn't there. Man From Uncle, Season 1 is one of the best TV series from the early 60's offered by Amazon. I highly recommend it.
