Mission: Impossible Opening Montage 1

Each episode of Mission: Impossible featured a unique opening. Clips from the upcoming show were edited together in the fast-paced style of Lalo Schrifrin's brilliant theme song and played before the opening credits. Here, I have edited together the intros to six episodes, showing the match lighting only on the first episode and the opening credits for the sixth episode only.

These were recorded by me on VHS off television in 1992-93 and edited together on an iMac using iMovie HD. The episodes featured here are from the second and third seasons.

This is one action-packed sequence - enjoy!

At 1:54 is he getting shot, or is that a dance move?

[crocoboxer]

@zk71 Dance move. Barney liked to get down from time to time and he had the moves to prove it.

@crocoboxer No actually Roland was pretending to shoot at him. The episodes that this happened is The Council (Part 1) and The Council (Part 2).

@foremad The internet really needs a sarcasm font.

102 people chose not to accept the mission

@TrollBuster9090 I think the reason why steven hill was canned due to his scheduling due to his orthodox religion he was pretty much at arms with desilu plus martin landau was a special guest in season one and bruce geller wanted him badly as a regular and it paid off then the show went downhill after him and barbara bain left due to contract negoations good job paramount

@TrollBuster9090 I could never picture leonard nimoy on this show I always known him for his vulcan ears lol

[foremad]

@crocoboxer I was just trying to state the truth I had no idea you were making a  joke about it my apologies.

@MrSerling1 I know it is perfection at it's greatest.

@TrollBuster9090 I agree so much Roland Hand a.k.a. Martin Landau would've been great as the lead roll. I also think it would've been cool to have Ethan Hunt a.k.a. Tom Cruise be Roland Hand returning. Now if we can only get Martin and Barbra back together :D

[MrSerling1]

Wow !!!!! fantastic !!!!

[TrollBuster9090]

@MiracleFruitClock I was really surprised that they didn't offer Martin Landau the "team lead" spot after Steven Hill got canned during the first season. Peter Graves was too wooden. I actually liked Steven Hill better, and then there was one episode where he didn't appear because the studio was having problems with him, and Landau substituted. He was pretty good at the job!

[TrollBuster9090]

Ahh...the show was never quite the same after Martin Landau left. I just couldn't picture Spock as the latex rubber master of disguise.
