5. I still can't believe 'The Prisoner' had such low ratings...
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 06:34 PM by HypnoToad
It seems, the higher intellectual quality the show, the lower the ratings.


Well, usually - some shows are just crap. But 'The Prisoner' is not one of them!!

17. But, of course. Higher intellectuals are rare in the TV audience...
...so many of the viewers just couldn't follow or understand the complexity and nuance of The Prisoner.

Some still don't.

Hmmm...might be about time for The Prisoner marathon I've been planning.

4. No Derek Flint? For shame...I can't take this poll seriously then.
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 06:34 PM by nine23
I even have Flint's ringtone on my cell; and no, it has naught to do with Austin Powers.

6. I can only vote for ONE? Darn!
Edited on Sat Aug-20-05 06:36 PM by Penndems
I like Kelly Robinson, but I also like Alexander Scott and Napoleon Solo.

I don't see any women agents (like Emma Peel) on the poll, either. :(

11. Only because she got completely buck nekkid in 9 Yards
Did she do an encore in 10 yards?

That's the only thing I liked about the first one, anyway

12. Matt Helm


Dino Martin at his best.

The Wrecking Crew also starred the beautiful Sharon Tate.









I remember when this movie came out. I was in love with Sharon Tate. She wasn't a "great" actress, but she had a flair for comedy and just lit up the screen with her beauty.

15. Agent 86, of course
What a great show that was. Daughter (now 22) and I were recently reminiscing about how we watched that on Nick at Nite when she was growing up.

16. What?!?! You included Ilya Kuryakin and *Left Out* Napoleon Solo?
Shame on you. He was the one I had the crush on...I always skewed just a bit older and dashing than my peers. I thought "The Saint" was IT.

So, I voted for John Drake, 'cause you just can't beat "Secret Agent" AND "The Prisoner."

27. Wow - The Men From U.N.C.L.E.
Illya Kuryakin and Napoleon Solo. I LOVED that show as a young prepubescent future nymph. Sigh.
