I was addicted to the T.V. show.

In the early 1950s, there were quite a few T.V. show with this theme and movies too, though the movies were made in the '40s and into the early '50s.

LANNY BUDD was a book series that was JAMES BONDIAN many decades BEFORE those books were written and continued into the '50s. Sadly, nobody ever made any movies, that I know of, from those books.

Truly doubt I’ll ever watch a BOND movie again. Certainly the onces being made to day are insignificant. Woke Bond? Female Bond? As the years passed Bond became rather passa.

Did enjoy Connery, but favorite was Roger Moore. His bond was full of snappy come backs and really had a sense of adventure.
Especially those in the New Orleans location. The Music, jazz
Even the film with Jane Seymore was enjoyable though was never
impresssed by Jane. However did enjoy her in Dr Quinn.

Demerits are deserved. Never heard of Lanny Budd. Though in he summer months Bookmobile and yours truly always had a date
each time they would visit the neighborhood area. This what
summer was made for. Reading. And so much of it was done. Later in life found the reading became less frequent. Time and responsibility became priority over reading. Oh the joys of growing up and older.
