The Man From U.N.C.L.E. episode guide
For nearly four years (Sept. 22, 1964 to Jan. 15, 1968), fans enjoyed watching the adventures of agents Napoleon Solo (Robert Vaughn) and Illya Kuryakin (David McCallum), who represented the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement. Other Web pages celebrate other aspects of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. Here, we review each episode, including interesting trivia and gaffes. Also, we review selected episodes of the spin-off series, The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. And there's an in-depth examination of the reunion TV movie. What we lack in flashy graphics we try to make up in content.
This page debuted December 1, 1996. After a hiatus, we're back to tinkering. So feel free to come back any time. For more, click on the following. All contents (c) 1996-2007 by William J. Koenig.

"Open Channel D..."
TNT dropped the show on July 4, 2000. The last episodes shown were The Alexander the Greater Affair, parts one and two. TNT doesn't even have this logo anymore. In fact, I'm pretty sure the following is a dead link. I'll clean this and others up in the coming weeks. But if you're adventurous and want to see if TNT still has this page, click here.
