Mission: Impossible - Seasons 1-3 (21-DVD)

Forty years before it hit the big screen via a glossy Tom Cruise remake, the classic 1960s television series MISSION IMPOSSIBLE captivated audiences with its tense and stylish thrill ride through Cold War espionage. Following the globetrotting exploits of a covert taskforce of government spies--team leader James Phelps (Peter Graves, who replaced the debut season's Steven Hill), master of disguise Rollin Hand (Martin Landau), electronics expert Barney Collier (Greg Morris), tough guy Willy Armitage (Peter Lupus), and femme fatale Cinnamon Carter (Barbara Bain)--the series distinguished itself with intricate plotting, high-tech gadgetry, inventive cinematography, and, of course, an indelible theme song. Smart and iconic, the vintage series is resurrected in this collection of episodes from the first three seasons.
