Isn't that sort of like Secret Agent? With Pat McGoohan, only a half
hour? Or maybe that *is* Secret Agent and we changed the name when we
showed it here?

GREAT show! Roger Moore and Tony Curtis as playboys who just always seem
to attract trouble. :-)

You don't remember The Saint! Roger Moore as Simon Templar? They made a
new series with ......... damn, I knew his name till I started to write
it - oh! Ian Ogilvy, yeah, that's it. Great show. Simon Templar is a
dubious character - somewhat shady himself, but he goes around doing
good deeds and leaving a calling card of a stick figure with a halo - am
I right??

Those are my recommendations. :-)
