1. I liked the Derek Flint movies.

James Colburn was wonderful as Derek Flint. They were geared for laughs, which I liked. Just campy as hell. :-)

[Culture Mind]

15. The Destroyer

aka Remo Williams

Not the crappy 80s movie but the book series that started in the 70s (and continued for 150 issues or so).
Ok, maybe he's more of an assassin than a spy or agent but... damn is he cool!

2. The Prisoner!

Where all good spies go when they try to "quit...!"

3. Secret Agent

I liked the show and I loved the theme song.

9. Hear hear for "The Prisoner"!!!

Definitely the best spy show ever!

[Screaming Lord Byron]

4. The Avengers. Peerless.

7. The Avengers

cannot be matched for style and intelligence.

10. I was so upset when Patrick MacNee (sp?) showed up on another

series as a villain.

I always liked him.

5. "The Prisoner"

40 years later, I'm still trying to figure out the plot twists on DVD!

6. Reilly: Ace of Spies

[johnnie]

8. One of these guys

[Magrittes Pipe]

11. The Prisoner.

OF COURSE!

"The Avengers" rating a close second.

12. The one with Ken Wahl

can't remember the name

[GOPisEvil]

13. Wiseguy

[noonwitch]

14. Wiseguy

It was a great show, but I never thought of it as a spy show, but as a crime drama. It could be-he went undercover to catch all these international criminals. My favorite story arc was Mel Profit.

16. Other: "The Sandbaggers"

In my book, nothing else is even close (on edit: among continuing series).

Tons of info on this little-known series: http://opsroom.org

Among mini-series, I'd rank Edge of Darkness; Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy; and Smiley's People right up there.

[Throckmorton]

17. Secret Cajun Man

They've given him a skillett and a charcoal flame.

18. I picked Alias

and then read down and saw "The Prisoner"

Now that was an awesome show!
