There's a site called findsgrave.com - some of you may know about it already - anyway there are some tributes to the late Greg Morris there. The link is: ...
'Jumping The Shark' is a term which originated, I believe, in association with an episode of 'Happy Days' and has come to refer to an episode of a series which...
There were a couple of silly episodes in which Jim behaved out of character over a woman. The one with Joan Collins was out of character but the other one I'm...
I really don't like to use the phrase much. It's cute, but unfortunately it's poorly defined. You can ask 10 people and get 20 different definitions of jump...
I'm not a fan of Phelps falling in love either. I don't mind it happening to the other characters, but I always felt the leader should have more discipline. I...
I never saw the one with the sports car, but I just watched the episode with Joan Collins and it is a very unusual episode for this series. I guess anyone can ...
Good points, Erik. To me the show stayed consistent in terms of its scope, although towards the end, let's say all the episodes that were made after the...
Every show, particularly one on for 7 years, has its bad episodes. Mission did too, but that doesn't mean it necessarily "jumped the shark." My interpretation...
Yes I think you make a good point. The bar for Mission: Impossible is very high, so as a fan it's easy to become spoiled buy the high quality. And, even though...
By coincidence, I just saw "Nicole" and was very disappointed. Although it had the usual Paul Playdon "double and triple-cross"- type script (like "Stefan...
I agree with you about "Nicole" more than the romance I just think it's boring. I'm not too crazy about "The Bunker." I think it's a good episode but coming...
Just to let you know that season 4 of MI is due for release in Australia on 15th May 2008. Link to Ezydvd site with this cheeky subtitle "Your mission, should...
I also prefer many of the episodes from season six and seven over season five. The shift to more domestic locations allowed them to get off of the lot, which...
To tell the truth, I prefer the foreign espionage-type stories over battling the "domestic-organized-crime" stories, particularly of the last 2 seasons. While...
... Australia on 15th May 2008. [snip] ... If you are in the UK, and have a multiregional player, it's very cost effective to buy MI from Oz. Ezdvd will supply...
... Yes, get a color television from that era (25" maximum screen and not solid-state), beam a RF signal via antenna and 300-ohm wire to said t.v., and then...

Patrick White's book "Mission Ipossible Dossier" mentions the wires of the flying saucer in "The Bunker" also, but I watched it recently and really made an...

Yes I remember reading about that. I never noticed them on the VHS version. But it's all good. I didn't mean to sound overly critical about the effects. It's...
I was just wondering how the members feel about Season 5. I used to dislike it, but, having viewed it in more recent times, I grew to like it more. The stories...

Dear Jimmy, I agree Lesley Warren was not suitable as a IMF member. But in Ghost Story, she acts as a ghost, very suitable for her. I like this story. On the...
