I hope this is an appropriate place to post. Last night, my friends and I were talking about sitcoms int he 80s that we enjoyed and we couldn't remember the name to one.

Here is a brief description from what we remember (we were all born int he 80s, so memories aren't perfect lol)

Action/Drama/Spy with a little comedic value.

Main character was a male, probably in his mid-30s to early-40s. Dirty blonde hair that was sort of curly. He was thin and white.

The show was him (the character) as what we think was a CIA-like operative that traveled the world on covert missions. He would often travel by train through Russia or the middle east in a rush to get someplace to defuse a bomb and protect American interests.

ANy ideas? I'm sure I will know the name once I hear it lol.

Sounds kinda like Sledghammer but he was a Cop and not in the CIA but it was kinda similiar to what you described.

No, its definitely not Sledgehammer. That, IIRC was based in USA. The show I'm thinking of would have the character go overseas almost all the time
