1)The show was made and set in the early-to-late 1960's a time associated with the VietNam War. When you realize what a brutal, mass-murdering destroyer of the communist persuasion Ho Chi Minh really was and that all protests by Australians against the war were 1000% wrong you realize what a super criminal time the show was made in.
2) This show had a rep for being a series where a woman was never killed. I could swear in one Mrs. Gale (Honor Blackman) videotape ep a woman (not her) was seen dead and I watched the read of the ep expecting the lady to turn out to be still alive (maybe it was a drug that had just made her seem deceased) but the beauty never comes back to life. I only saw this ep once and maybe I did not understand the fast-spoken dialogue well enough but, again, I do think it ended with the lady dead. 3)Patrick MacNee was previously on many US and Canadian TV shows starting around 1954. At ancestrylibrary.com (if you subscribe) you can see good evidence of one "Daniel P. MacNee" arriving in New York on Sep 14, 1954 (he came in from the UK) plus he arrives at Boston, Mass. on Nov. 15, 1955. Apparently he arrived to do these American shows. (His first name was actually Daniel.) This is very interesting and to the point because one US show he did was Twilight Zone. It may give many Avengers viewers a pause to think he was actually on TZ before he played Steed. Google "Ho Chi Minh mass-murderer" and check out book "Serial Killers: Ho Chi Minh" at amazon for more on highly mass-murdering, deadly tactics. The Avengers was made in the UK (and that nation did not fight in the VietNam War itself) but at least one member (Australia) of their Empire (becoming Commonwealth) did----so arguably the UK was involved in the VietNam War also. I almost did not explain this but early response was confused so I explained. And Ho Chi MInh was indeed a brutal killer and nobody in Australia should have supported him----and that makes sense to point that out. |

Trying to make any sense out of anything Best Man says will make your head explode.
It isn't worth it. |

Vahan just loves commie mass-murderers! He defends Alan Alda's pro-commie stances as well.

Torgo, for your information the VietNam War was a big part of the history of the US-UK-Australia. The Avengers was product of that time. Some conversation of that war while talking of The Avengers makes sense.

That really makes no sense, Vahan. I am no fan at all of Alan Alda! But he has done a great deal of harm with his Mash series and other stances. Everything he stands for always turns out to be wrong.

Everyone, I have given my references to proof that Ho Chi Minh was a deadly, brutal mass-murderer. Do not listen to left-wing, commie lover, chasing troll Vahan. Check my Mash postings time and time and see how he has come on them time and time again defending mass-murderers (like Kim II Sung).

P.S. According to you, it was a great day when Eli Wallach died, and it will be an equally great day for you when Alan Alda dies. |

Since Alan Alda got into this message board due to Vahan's awful, pro-commie meddling I will add that Linda Thorson (who played Tara King) had a small role in one of Alan Alda's movies. Predictably, the movie was a just vehicle for more of Alda's highly left-wing stances but Thorson was beautiful in it all the same.
(I will not read any of that pro-commie's messages. He is a trouble maker who has chased after me, and much worse, ignores how super deadly Sung and Minh both actually were!) |

Torgo, why not forget me and just think about what I am saying. Minh was a-murderer of gigantic proportions. The 60's turned out to be a criminal time with so many supporting Empire/Commonwealth Australians supporting his terrible regime and the 1960's The Avengers brings to light that time.
