This is a well written, well acted, spy action drama. The stories are interesting and historically accurate. The three main characters, operating as a high level ALLIED team, bring their individual specialties and expertise to each of their missions.
The show is a cross between a more intelligent, less comedic Hogan's Heroes and Mission Impossible. If you listen closely you'll hear some iconic Lalo Schifrin music riffs inserted into the score. Schifrin is the prolific genius composer who wrote the Mission Impossible theme as well as hundreds of other recognizable film and TV scores!
If you like spy, espionage stories set during the time period of WW2, this show is for you! Highly recommended!

CBS had a choice between Mission Impossible and this .They could only renew 1 for a 2nd season . A shame this was a loser . It was a quality show Happened on it by accident on Tubi website. The set was amazing It was on the sprawling MGM MGM backlot . It was a travesty when that was torn down . It would have made a great tourist attraction. I recognized so many MGM movies that were shot on the exteriors of that set . The cast was great .Only Franks sadly had any sort of career after this . I did notice a number of snippets of music reminiscent of Mission Impossible in it. John Dehner also popped up as a heavy . A shame this never made it beyond 1 season.
