Trivia:
When this show was bought by ARD for the German market in 1967, only selected episodes from the first three seasons were dubbed (additionally the episodes were cut down to standard running time of 45 minutes). A few years later they did the same with the later seasons (with new dubbing actors). When the show was broadcast on Kabel 1/Pro 7, all other episodes (except one) were dubbed as well (again with new dubbing actors). The last remaining episode was dubbed for the DVD release in 2006.

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In numerous episodes a very tiny black "tape player" is used. It is identifiable by the aluminum tape reels which each have three holes. This was a dummy prop and, in several shots, it is obvious that the tape is a continuous loop running around both reels since the shiny aluminum center of the "takeup" reel is visible rather than the brown tape color.

Quotes:
Cinnamon Carter:
You get all the fun.
Rollin Hand: On the contrary. I only get to make up. You get to remove all my make-up, in front of three men who'll kill you if they see what you're doing.
Cinnamon Carter: They'll kill us both.
Rollin Hand: So they would.

A great series full of original, inspired ideas. Recite "This tape will self-destruct etc..." and instantly everybody will be able to tell you where that line came from. Usually at the end of each episode you got to enjoy the bad guys realization that he has been out-done by the skillful planning of the I.M.F team. Not surprising that this series was so good since it came at a time when Herb Solow at Desilu studios had a big hand in production affairs..his other other responsibility was another legendary series ...Star Trek. The new film version "starring?" Tom Cruise was a huge disappointment. I hear that original series cast member Greg Morris called the new film "blasphemy". Right on Greg !! I wish Greg that it was possible to turn back time and have you and Peter, Martin, Barbara, Leonard and all , here to give us more truly great entertainment.
