This review is from: Mission: Impossible - Season 4 (DVD)
Nothing is better than the original one. And at this season, we have the appearance of Leonard Nimoy. That's a pity that Martin Landau had left the series, but the action, the mistery and all stuff remains the same. Thanks to CBS and Paramount to become this TV show available.Thel Augusto Monteiro - Sao Paulo / Brazil

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE #4: Enter Paris the Great!,
By Thomas Rucki - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Mission: Impossible - Season 4 (DVD)
You step into the fourth season (1969-1970) of "Mission: Impossible", produced by two men: Stanley Kallis from season 3 and newcomer Bruce Lansbury (former "Wild Wild West" producer) who brings with him writer Ken Pettus, and, above all, it's creator Bruce Geller's final input before his departure. Witness if you will two paramount changes: a new master of disguises named Paris (played by Leonard Nimoy) and a legion of female agents but only one appear almost regularly (six times): Tracey (played by Lee Meriwether aka Bruce Geller's protégée) and she gives her best performance as fortune-teller Mrs. Vinsky in the three parter "The Falcon". You'll find three top episodes: "The Controllers, Part I & II" (guest starring David Sheiner and Dina Merrill), "The Falcon, Part I, II & III" (a superb monarchist and adventure story written by scripts genius Paul Playdon and guest starring John Vernon, Diane Baker and Noel Harrison), "Submarine" (guest starring Stephen McNally), and a selection of good ones: "The Crane", "Fool's Gold", "Gitano", "The Choice", "Orpheus" (written by scripts genius Paul Playdon and guest starring Albert Paulsen and Jessica Walter), "The Numbers Game", "The Code", "Robot" (guest starring Malachi Throne and Larry Linville), "The Double Circle" (guest starring Anne Francis). Actor Leonard Nimoy shines in three episodes: "The Code" as Che Guevara-like revolutionary El Lider, "The Falcon" as flamboyant magician Zastro, "The Choice" as Rasputine-like charlatan Emile Vautrain. Supported by producer Bruce Lansbury, writer Laurence Heath introduces private episodes centered around the love affair of IMFers: Paris ("Lover's Knot") and Barney ("Death Squad"). The music scores are very strong, especially two: "The Controllers" composed by Jerry Fielding and "Submarine" by Lalo Schifrin.

Your mission Jim...,

This review is from: Mission: Impossible - Season 4 (DVD)
Being a looong time Mission fan, this season was my personal favorite. It told the viewers we can make a huge cast change & still hit it big.Unfortunately, this was the last season of the high ratings. Just when the show was high on the hog, the departure of Bain & Landau didn't set well with some, but was welcome for others. If you could lump all of the things that made Mission great, the episode that shows this is here: Submarine. Voted a fan favorite & an award winner, it compiles all that made Mission good. The whole set contains great a transfer, excellent sound quality & all that is to love about the greatest spy show ever. A true diamond in anyone's collection. 36 of 44 people found the following review helpful

This review is from: Mission: Impossible - Season 4 (DVD)
Have watched the first two seasons so far. Gorgeous prints and sound. Remarkable how a mid-sixties show holds up and doesn't come across dated. Imagine the great writers this show employed because every week for seven years they wrote a one hour sting movie!In this fourth season Martin Landau left the show and was replaced by Leonard Nimoy just off the cancelled Star Trek series ( dumb Paramount executives! )His character was named Paris. Ironically, Martin turned down the Spock character and here we now have Nimoy replacing HIM on Mission Impossible!.. By the way Paramount, do we have to thank the ghost of Lucille Ball ( cause it was created by Desilu) for not screwing the public on the price by splitting it into two half seasons and charging the same price as an entire series like you have with Gunsmoke, Rawhide and the Untouchables? Shame on you. You should stop this practice immediately. We have only so much money to spend on DVD's. The Untouchables is four years, Rawhide is eight, and Gunsmoke is twenty. Please stop! PLEASE!!!!Bloodspiller: Book One: Warriors of Palahia SeriesBloodspiller: Book One: Warriors of Palahia Series
