did you know all the Peter Gunn episodes are on YouTube?

I'd never seen them before last year. Great stuff for short-form tv.

"Secret Agent Man" is a song written by P. F. Sloan and Steve Barri. The most famous recording of the song was made by Johnny Rivers for the opening titles of the American broadcast of the British spy series Danger Man, which aired in the U.S. as Secret Agent from 1964 to 1966. The song itself peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

I read the book as a kid. Even then I could not follow the movie. But I love this song.

Although Joseph Barbera, William Hanna, and Hoyt Curtin all appear as creators of the popular Jonny Quest theme song, it is generally accepted that Hoyt Curtin was the creative force behind the theme, and the distinctive underscores heard throughout the series.
