Mission Impossible Tidbits
Mission Impossible Intro: "Your mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it, is... As usual, should you or any member of your I.M. Force be captured or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your existence. This tape will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Jim."
Poof! The tape went up in smoke! However much or little people may recall of Mission:Impossible, no one could forget the tension packed opening augmented by Lalo Schifrin's jazzy theme music.
In the first season, it was "your mission, Dan" as Steven Hill (real name, Solomon Krakovsky) played Daniel Briggs, leader of the Impossible Mission Force. Reportedly, Hill's contract restrictions which limited the days and hours he would work in order for the Orthodox Jew to strictly observe his religion became a problem. In 1990, these limitations were accomodated by producer Dick Wolf as Hill began his 10 year run as D.A. Adam Schiff on Law and Order.
In the second season, the team is headed by Peter Graves as Jim Phelps. Graves, brother of Gunsmoke star James Arness, is the leader we remember. In the first seasons the self-destructing tape came with a packet of pictures of potential agents to use on the assignment. Since Jim always picked the same people, this seemed sort of silly and was eventually dropped.
The plots were always very complicated and usually involved the overthrow of some dictator or the theft of secret papers. In short, the kind of thing we imagine the CIA really does but doesn't want to get caught doing. In later seasons, having reorganized a significant number of third world nations, the Mission Impossible Force turned its attention to crime syndicates in America.
The original cast included Greg Morris as Barney Collier, the electronics wiz, and Peter Lupus as Willie Armitage, the muscle. Barbara Bain was the obligatory female agent, Cinnamon Carter.
Bain's real life husband Martin Landau was cast as Rollin Hand, the master of disguise. Originally this was to have been a brief appearance but his work so impressed producers, that he was signed as a permanent cast member.
Things went well for the first three seasons but then salary disputes with Paramount caused Bain and Landau to be replaced. Star Trek was finishing its run on the very next soundstage, which made Leonard Nimoy, who looks a bit like Landau, available. In what must be Nimoy's destiny, he was given another one word name, Paris, and assumed Landau's IMF duties.
Martin Landau turned down the part of Mr. Spock on Star Trek (fascinating decision) and was replaced on Mission Impossible by Leonard Nimoy, who accepted the role (wholly logical).

Starsky & Hutch Tidbits
'Starsky & Hutch' brought much of the streetwise grit, the violence, and the sheer excitement from hit movies such as 'Dirty Harry' to the small screen. There had been Police series virtually since then beginning of television, but 'Starsky & Hutch' had something else – this show was undoubtedly "hip". A huge hit at the time, it now stands as one of the iconic cop shows of the 1970s, particularly thanks to the fashions and infamous car chases that went with it.
On the surface, plain-clothes Detectives Starsky and Hutch were like chalk and cheese. Ken Hutchinson opted very much for the quiet life, being well read, a deep thinker, and enjoying fine cuisine. Dave Starsky, on the other hand, was louder, more brash, enjoying street life and a diet of junk food. Their personalities might have contrasted, but once together, they meshed perfectly, practically operating and thinking as one, as they ridded the streets of muggers, drug pushers, murderers, rapists, racketeers, and similar such scum. Their methods weren't always the most orthodox and they weren't afraid to bend the rules, but they always got results. Huggy Bear was the duo's ultra-hip, jive talking, streetwise informant. It was sometimes lightly hinted that Huggy was a pimp, but this was never really confirmed (or denied) in the series.
That's the end of the ride for today. Please watch your step on exiting the time machine. Now that I've shown you a few, how about you share something from your memory. Or, if one of these were your favorite show then, share a memory of the best episode for you.

A woman was trapped on the top floor of a burning building. Flames and smoke blocked every way of escape. When firefighters arrived, one of the men scrambled up a ladder to the window where the woman was screaming for help, and with outstretched arms he offered to save her. But when she looked down and saw the great distance to the ground below, she panicked and drew back into the room.
