I also remember that little error with the metal ball, but as you say it is an excellent episode. Visually, what stands out in my mind is the sequence where...
When I was a teenager I met George Takei and he was nice enough to let my mother take a picture of the both of us. "The Carriers" is one of the best episodes...
The thing that bothers me about this episode is the immense heat that would be needed to melt the gold. I don't know at what temperature gold melts, but...
According to a couple of science references I checked gold melts at around 1,940 Fahrenheit, approximately 1,064 Celsius. Pretty darn hot! Even if the vault...
Hi Everyone - I started a new Yahoo group for people who are interested in caper films. It's CaperFilms@yahoogroups.com, and I'd love it if you'd join. We'll...
Just tuned into an episode of 'Murder, She Wrote' today called 'Unauthorised Obituary' and there were Barbara Bain and Bradford Dillman playing husband and...
I have heard of that episode of Murder She Wrote but I have never seen it. I'm sure Jessica Walter was great. She's one of my favorites. Her character in the...
Just re-watched a Season 3 episode of Hawaii 5-0 last night called 'Time and Memories', which had quite a few Mission connections. It was written by Jerry...
The "Call to Danger" pilot was aired once on CBS shortly after the last M:I episode aired. I remember seeing it, but don't remember much about it otherwise. ...
I have heard of it but never seen "Call to Danger." The next time I visit The Museum of Television & Radio I will see if they have it in their archives. There...
... I think I saw it long ago in the 1970's, but I can't remember the storyline. If you search enough, it seems to be out there on pirate DVDs. Merry...

Happy Christmas, everyone! The television reference book I checked wasn't too complimentary about 'Call To Danger', calling it 'warmed-over crime-busting'. By...
Check out the homepage where I have just posted an off-video capture from the final moments of the second part of the Season 3 story 'The Bunker' as Jim and...
Thanks, Jimmy, this episode has always been one of my favorites. Just wondering - did they ever show this two-parter as a feature film? They obviously spent a...
I checked IMDb for more on 'Call To Danger' and apparently it was a 1973 remake of the 1966 telefilm, also entitled 'Call To Danger', which Graves made prior...
Just a few lines to mark the passing of singer and actress, Eartha Kitt, who appeared in the Season 1 episode, 'The Traitor' as IMF agent, Tina Mara. It was a...
With the imminent release of Season 5 on this side of the Atlantic, I was wondering which seasons of the series members think are the best or worst. You...
Best Mission Seasons: Â #1 - Season 3: Great plotting/writing with The Classic Cast in place. Rare clunkers this season (most notably "The Contender"). Very...
Traditionally my favorite seasons were two, four, and six. However, I must be honest and say that I have really gotten into the fifth season since the DVD...
1. My single best season remain season 3 because it is outstanding in all departments, even the minor episodes are good. 2. Followed by season 2 which is the...
Yes, "The Catafalque" is another episode that I have reevaluated for the better. I agree with you on Lesley Ann Warren; I never enjoyed Dana's character very...
I just found out this news on another group. Pat Hingle did an outstanding job as the cold-blooded businessman R.J. McMillan who plots the murder of a U.S....
I'm very sorry to hear that. He was really a great character actor, it was always a nice surprise to see his face show up on a television show or movie. ... ...
It's often been argued that Jim Phelps wasn't as ruthless or cold blooded as Dan Briggs, but this may have been more because of the actors than the characters...
I have often thought about this and I think you have made a good observation Jimmy. Both Steven Hill and Peter Graves brought their own identity to the...
I have to agree with those that say Season 5 marked the beginning of the final downturn in the series. Dana was just not a very good character. However, there...
Pat Hingle's appearance in "The Confession" helped make it one of the very best episodes. It was a risky move by Geller and the MI team to even produce such an...
