The Man from UNCLE

One of the greatest television shows of all time, and the first successful spy show on American television, will finally arrive on DVD, as Time Life and Warner Home Video debut The Man From U.N.C.L.E: The Complete Series this fall. The Golden Globe® award-winning series, starring Robert Vaughn ("HU$TLE", Superman III) as Napoleon Solo and David McCallum ("NCIS", The Great Escape) as Illya Kuryakin, originally aired on NBC from 1964 to 1968 and earned an astounding 16 Emmy award nominations during its run.

Action-adventure series The Man From U.N.C.L.E. evolved around the activities of the unlikely partnership of American spy Napoleon Solo and Russian spy Illya Kuryakin, both top agents for an international law enforcement agency, the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement. The show, whose characters were created in part by James Bond's Ian Fleming, adhered to the original serious tone throughout the first two seasons. By the third season, an element of humor was added, but when ratings dropped, an attempt was made to return to serious storytelling in the fourth and final season. Throughout its run, The Man From U.N.C.L.E. received multiple major award nominations, including two Emmy nominations each for McCallum and supporting character Leo G. Carroll for his role as Mr. Alexander Waverly, two more Emmy nominations as the year's outstanding entertainment program, and a Golden Globe win for Best TV Show in 1966.
