The Man From U.N.C.L.E. Trailer

[superjoezzz]

If you notice the equipment in the background and how crude it is, you wonder how it was possible to put men on the moon..

[minaclaire2006]

thanks for the flashback. I think U.N.C.L.E. developed Canesten to control THRUSH

[hmmful1]

El famoso Agente de Cipol; aquí en ´México transmitido por el legendario canal 8; con estos programas a principios de los 70´s, además de Hawai 5-0, Kojack, Espías en conflicto con Bill Cosby, Cannon, Banaceck etc; muy pronto dejamos las caricaturas para introducirnos en este maravilloso cine de espías y policías resolviendo casos...saludos desde México D.F.

[flapdoodle64]

In B/W, this show is cooler than it was in color.

[joshweiss01]

@flapdoodle64 Yes, absolutely. Fred Koenenkamp the director of photography didn't like shooting in B/W. Too many filters he said. But his stuff is great.

[KeithLindsay1]

HAHAHA Thrush!

[TheEldoradoKid]

Flash forward to 2011....U.N.C.L.E. is the NSA, The TSA, Homeland Security and a host of other parasites running amok in the Obama Administration, and THRUSH is the New World Order proponents run by The Bilderberger Group, the Illuminatti, The Club of Rome, trying to tear apart American and run by George Soros!

[korot19]

@TheEldoradoKid Wowwee Kudos to posting some insightful tidbits --- yep in in the wake of the tenth anniversary of one of the biggest stunts ever pulled off by NWO masterminds... I DO so agree with you EDKid!

[korot19]

@korot19 also THRUSH sounds like another Dr. Pepper product if you ask me.

[korot19]

Wow I remember syndicated reruns when I was a kid but boy I really did not remember it being this cheesy that's for sure... this is ready to for the little robots from Mystery Science Theater 3000 to watch and review.... LOL

[joshweiss01]

@korot19 It's amazing how cheesy the ATeam was. Both Vaughn and McCallum guest starred in it with Vaughn becoming a regular. How my spirit sank to see him doing such low Reagan era, plastic, trite formula Universal product.,with family hour proto violence.

[miamimann1]

I remember Friday nights 10 oclock time for the Man from U.N.C.L.E. as a kid in the 60s then not till the 80s Friday night 10 oclock came the next classic Miami Vice......gone are the days of great TV.

[331Lorenz]

this is good TV man!!!!!!!

[relaxingrollup]

i have a man from uncle membership card at me mams fromthe news o the world

[tron2102]

I have the cane and a uncle gun !

[SebastiaanSailmaker]

DUCKY!

[SpeedTriple59]

Ace classic stuff,still wish i had my suitcase..

[srb9]

The original and the best Spy program.

[Maksimfan]

I wonder if 3.05 was one of Mccallum's many ad libs :)

[farnumbp]

Nothing as cool as this on tv today

[srb9]

@farnumbp I agree nothing even close.



[jcondon26]

Don't you love how Robert Vaughan used to fire his pistol like he was trying to throw the bullets out of the barrel. lol

[OperativeHassle]

I didn't know Angela Lansbury was on this show!

I remember her on Murder, She Wrote from the 80's to early 90's

[Maksimfan]

@OperativeHassle yep if I remember rightly she was in 'The deadly toys affair'

[joshweiss01]

@OperativeHassle The second season episode is called The Deadly Toys Affair. She guest starred with Jay North of Dennis the Menace fame.

[grant70000]

옛날에 재미있게 봤었지.

[jokr8790]

I think the show was better once they decided it should be a spoof. Before that it was just a run of the mill spy show. Chris the acronym was United Network Command for Law Enforcement.

[hfa555]

2:26 Agent 99

[tecdessus]

LOL " Jessica Fletcher" (Angela Lansbury) at 1;44 and lolol, shes taller than Robert Vaughn:-))) can anyone tell me what episode that is from ????

[miamimann1]

Nice Job....

[kayary]

Remembering Illya Kuryakin & Napoleon Solo

[brabon1]

good example of when not to change show runners

first season was brilliant...but some reviewers called it a spy spoof....and the new show runner in season 2 changed it to one....and the show got more and more absurd

which is why it only lasted 4 seasons

[joshweiss01]

@brabon1 Third season got closer to Get Smart than James Bond. Even at the age of fifteen I knew there was something wrong. If you have these episodes available compare second season closer: The Indian Affairs Affair with first season closer: The Odd Man Affair. The Odd Man Affair is infinitely superior; funny without being cute, well acted, aimed to play to adult and college crowd. Indian Affairs was aimed to a 10- 14 year old audience. I was in that audience and I didn't like it..

[cozener1]

They seem to do their own stunts in this trailer.

[chrisdimson]

what did the letters U.N.C.L.E. stand for ? i can't remember? any one?

[brabon1]

@chrisdimson United Network Command for Law and Enforcement).

[doltoy]

@chrisdimson United Network Crime Law Enforcement, or something like that

[darkchococide]

@doltoy United Network COMMAND for Law Enforcement

[doltoy]

@darkchococide correct.

[TheJomogogo]

@darkchococide

Yes that's right. I was an UNCLE agent back then, Solo and Kuryakin were loose cannons, nobody wanted to work with them. Couple of dicks is what they were.

[srb9]

@TheJomogogo if you were an U.N.C.L.E. agent in Section II: Operations & Enforcement, then Napoleon Solo was your section Chief, must have been hard not to work with him.

[kurtb8474]

I KNEW IT! There will be a movie in 2012.  Source: Internet Movie Data Base. So far, all of the shows I enjoyed when I was a kid in the 60s are STILL being made into major motion pictures, beginning with Star Trek The Motion Picture 31 years ago. Unfortunately, the 60s TV re-makes have been total CRAP in the last 10 or 12 years. So I don't trust anyone in Hollywood to do this timeless classic any justice.

[rabbitwho]

This show was the definition of cool.. I was in love with the blond fella when I was a kid :D

[MsDenisemarie]

hey that is Ducky from NCIS....

[Stateliner69]

Yes Ducky!!!!! Uncle Ducky to you....

[whiskeyify]

Great show, then the stupid network ruined it.

They goofed it up, I remember this era well as a young kid. I think because "Get Smart" was so popular at the time so I think they tried to copy it.

[Andymalcolm1]

Napoleon Solo is the coolest spy ever and this is the greatest show ever!!!!

[vawlkee]

I loved the show - especially the first and second season. It tended to get a bit sill after that. At the very end it seemed that they were just getting back into the groove but by then the die was cast.

Excellent job of editing BTW, thanks..

[TheJomogogo]

@vawlkee

Yeah the first two seasons were good after that they started yucking it up and getting campy, it became silly.

[Carolschuhy]

You can find this video and download it c @ MOOV ZON ,COM g00gle the link above

[kuryakingirl]

Awesome video!! Thanks for sharing. :D

[citizenkong]

Wonderful!

[Soulthinker2007]

Loved the trailer.

[author]

These guys made a great duo. What an excellent show for the 1960's when we were in the midst of "The Cold War." I miss the Robert Vaughan and David McCallum tag-team very much.

[crotchboots]

enforce legal world order,eh....bush and dealy plaza gang no doubt pay the bills

[jrw661]

Topper!!!

[allanxxx99]

Was Napolean looking at the secretaries breasts at 0:10? lol

[j43ms]

that's funny at 0:46, bloke throws a screwdriver at napoleon, he ducks, then does a double-take when he sees it's hit the bullseye behind him!

[theloniousMac]

"Ducky." Ever see the episode of NCIS where Gibbs is asked what Ducky looked like when he was young and his response is "Illya Kuryakin." Loved that.

[Tyrannozero82]

This show is better than Adam West's Batman.

Take note: this is also where G1 Megatron's earth form originated!

[1916jutland]

Sharon Tate, who was murdered by the Manson family, is the beautiful woman on the left at 2:37-2:39.

[kurtb8474]

wow!  look at all of the high tech equipment!

[joshweiss01]

@kurtb8474 Those rented consoles and tape drives were old NASA stuff, with some items dating back to the 50's. One thing they had going for them; they were all VISUAL. Blinking lights and spinning tape drives beat CRTs with dull data moving on the every time.

[suspendingdisbelief1]

Ducky!

[warning05]

I love Ducky

[SumnerMurrayRedstone]

2:26 is Barbara Feldon from Get Smart.

[Surferdad58]

Love the double-take at the girly calendar at 0:46, right after getting a knife thrown at him.

[Baldenlong77]

I started watching this show for the first time a while back on DVD and it is AWESOME! I didn't know Robert Vaugnn could be so cool. They also seemed to get the hottest actresses to appear every episode!

[dandamagetoo]

I wrote to the Tv show and got an "official" man from uncle Id card. I also bought the kit with the pistol and badge. I even had a bunch of "spy" toys like a camera that turned into a gun and some others

[angelstar22]

Love it!!

[mayitpleasethecourt]

the insomnia was not unexpected or surprising

[anonymom17]

There IS an U.N.C.L.E. office in Toronto!

We 'go and we do, whatever we are told to, by the Chief!'

What a great post TheBlokeFromUncle!

[TheBlokeFromUNCLE]

Thank you :o) (9 months late, but still...)

[Neville6000]

I wonder if there's a U.N.C.L.E. office in Toronto?

[zensorship]

when you find out, it's too late!

[rkogeneral]

I thought Quinton Tarrentino was going to do a big screen version of this several years ago...he would be the only director I would trust with this show....

"The Man From Uncle".... Friday of NBC WEEK!"

[docscholl]

I feel like I'm rewinding my life back some 45+ years!

Loved this show as a kid - thanks for posting this video!

[sydneycat22]

did you know that the name napoleon solo was created by ian fleming,creator sam rolfe was struggling to find a name for the lead character,so he turned to his friend i.f

[totalloss26]

OK, this is for real. Back then my cousins and I watched this show. Instead of Man from U.N.c.l.e, we were the "Men from Grampa - AKA - Guns Racing Against Murderest Plots in America.

Those were the days. This and other shows and movies from the 60's influenced me until the day I leave this Earth.

[wayshower13]

thrush is todays federal reserve bank.

[raleigh500]

this show was the best, action, suspense,

travel around the world, culture,

and so much more!

[DENVERTZ007]

I AGREE ABSOLUTELY WITH ALL THIS!

[gaIIery]

Best spy show of the 1960's and one of the greatest- no, I'm gonna say thee greatest adventure series ever made.

Open Channel D please

[musicman95]

the original Man from UNCLE theme was written by the late Jerry Goldsmith; Goldsmith's theme I think is the best and I think the first season was the best. I was 15 years old when the Man from UNCLE first aired on television in the fall of 1964.

[scotpens]

erry Goldsmith's original theme, heard only in the first season, is by far the best version. The brassy, drum-heavy arrangement and unusual time signature -- 5/4 or 10/8 time -- suggest an off-kilter military march. Later seasons had jazzier versions of the theme in conventional 4/4 time.

[berserkley]

You are so right, Scotpens. The later theme arrangements were so pedestrian. The original theme is memorable precisely because it was so unusual for a TV theme.

[joshweiss01]

@scotpens Yes very perceptive, how bout that first season back melody. The first record album to use that called the cut "The Invaders". It was written by Goldsmith as well, and played a major part in first season episode music. It wasn't used again until fourth season episodes. I believe that the only title music to be arranged by Goldsmith was first season. The rest of the titles were arranged by Gerald Fried, unfortunately. Gerald Fried did the scoring on a 50's western called Shotgun Slade!

[scotpens]

@joshweiss01 Gerald Fried also composed music for several original Star Trek episodes. He was often called upon to create music with an "ethnic" or "tribal" sound.

[XMIR10B]

[XMIR10B]

What about AUNT and the Girl from UNCLE?

[scotpens]

Mad magazine spoofed "The Man From UNCLE" back in the Sixties, calling their version "The Man from AUNTIE." When asked what AUNTIE stands for, a character replies, "Association for Unbelievably Nauseating Television and Idiotic Entertainment"!

But was there ever an organization called AUNT?

[XMIR10B]

A.U.N.T was referenced in 2 episodes. There was no formal organization.

[XMIR10B]

WOW

[adama0731]

Note the influence that UNCLE had on the SHIELD comic in the 1960s. Like UNCLE, SHIELD was an acronym (Supreme Headquarters, International Espionage, Law-enforcement Division). Also, the original entrance into SHIELD'S New York headquarters was via a barber shop, an obvious takeoff on UNCLE'S tailor shop.

[XMIR10B]

I had man From UNCLE lighters, cigarette cases, comm devices, machine guns from 1966-1968, all with hidden deployments. I was amazed. Retractible machine gun, a lighter gun. These were realistic. Anyone else have any? I have the briefcase.

[XMIR10B]

Can someone post "Solo on a Raft"

[dmcII]

Check out Barbara Feldon at 2:28 ("You're wonderful Mr Solo !"). She was Don Adams' sidekick on the "Get Smart" secret agent spoof that ran on TV at the same time this show did.

[rjquy1952]

Two weeks later, they shot the pilot for Get Smart. It is the only episode in B/W. The script is by Mel Brooks.

[thehoundz]

FABULOUS!!!!!

[ffjkhguhgft]

BRILLIANT!!! WHAT MORE CAN I SAY.

[berserkley]

Check the part where the bad guy chucks the dagger at Solo. He ducks, and the dagger hits an advert on the wall dead center of a bulls eye on the ad. Solo's double take is priceless!

[lpentis]

Whatta video!

The monster ripping out of the movie screen near the end...which Affair was that from?

[ianthetrekker]

that's from "the never never affair"

[ianthetrekker]

thats from " the never never affair"

[nsolo11]

Awesome!! Great job!! I love this video -- thanks for putting it together!!

[dreamybluemeany]

ooo i like this- especially the "i cut my finger" and "he was run over by a truck"- no one does fun escapism quite like U.N.C.L.E.

[wiccagirl24]

Brilliant!  What a wonderful job you did. And the way you ended!

Thanks for sharing.

[bistokidsfan]

Heh - great! I really liked the part where Illya says he cut his finger :D
