Anyone Watch the old show Mission Impossible?

I always loved this show.  The cast was terrific and I loved the cool and classy Cinnamon.  MeTV has it on every Monday morning at 3:00 am on the East Coast.  Lots of fun watching all the disguises, etc.

Several people have told me I remind them of Leslie Ann Warren; although I can't tell you why.

@rms1954  way he’d it then, have watch here and there now when I can’t sleep.  When I was in 5th grade, I was in a class skit that was a takeoff from MI. My character was Cinnamon. Hehe.

Re: Anyone Watch the old show Mission Impossible?

I've always loved the show. I remember watching some of the shows when they originally aired. Unlike a lot of TV programs from the 60's and 70's, I think the show has held up well.

 

I liked the 1988 remake too. I was disappointed when it was canceled.

 

I also enjoy the MI Tom Cruise movies . . . well, except for the second one. But the rest of them were all very good.

@lmt 

 

Me too.  I wish he'd do another one.  He does 99% of his stunts in those movies too.

Re: Anyone Watch the old show Mission Impossible?

Years ago I bought the entire DVD set. So much fun watching the old classics. My favorite was the one where they melted down the gold bars to steal from some warlord. I read they used gold painted ice cream bars to substitute the gold melting. Genius since back then there was no CGI.

I watch it all the time on Paramount + streaming service.

All seasons are available without commercials.

Watching today I don't think Cinnamon was as classy as when I was younger.

The episode w/Carrol O'Conner Smiley Surprisedne of the best. And Martin Landeau fab!

How  about the one where they "smuggle" the Cardinal out of his prison.

Also own the 1988/89 version. Stars Greg Morris' son. These episodes are great.

Own the MI Dossier Book and it goes thru all the episodes  from the very beginning (1966).

Re: Anyone Watch the old show Mission Impossible?

I watched occasionally when a young teenager and there were only 3 or 4 networks. I always thought Martin Landua (sp?) and his wife were good actors (what was her name ?)

the one thing I remember and thought was a great name was Cinnamon Smiley Happy
