B.Bain was my favorite lady operatve in 'Mission Impossible'. So calm,cool & collected. I've seen most of her series then
An incredible show and wonderful actors. Barbara Bain is superlative.
@spaceace1006- Yes. Desilu produced both shows.
I watch this show for decades. Now in my 60s this is still my favorite TV series. I binge watch this now on Pluto tv.
Barbara Bain, a simply beautiful woman of everything!
I agree never the same when she left there had guests actress . but she was totally missed on the show.
Greg Morris never received his proper due for the groundbreaking character Barney truly was.
Unfortunately he passed away too young.
I never understood that either. He was always my favorite, reminds me of my father, also an inventive genius.
For Leverage fans which was a spiritual child of this series. Greg Morris' character is in many ways the precursor to Alec Hardison.
@@kendallrivers1119 Leverage is a direct copy. Like all copies it is a bit inferior. Actually everybody "appropriated" from the original M:I. Sly, Arnold and Denzel's Equalizer owe a huge debt to Peter Lupus. Listen to Michael Kamen's soundtrack from Licence to Kill, the 80's Bond flick; it was all lifted from the tv series.
I became an engineer because of him.
great show...i loved the intricate teamwork that was always involved in the plots of the show...has never really been duplicated...
I grew up watching this series. Always was on the edge of my seat. Watching it now, I love the emphasis on outsmarting the bad guys and watching the plan unfold rather than unending action sequences. I’ve always loved watching BB and ML, especially together, so love the early seasons. Enjoyed hearing from the actors in this video! So much talent ❤
Rest in peace Great actor Peter Grives 🙏🙏👼👼😢😢
*Graves.
Peter Lupus is still alive, they should've interviewed him. He was the forerunner of Stallone and Schwarzenegger.
He always considered himself the most expendable character and apparently CBS did as well. They tried to have him replaced in season five with Sam Elliot. Even when the attempt failed and fans showed their support, Peter still felt slighted by the network and was going to quit but was ultimately persuaded by the network's concession to give him more involvement in the show.
@@HerrEllsworth Lupus was the backbone of the series, literally and figuratively. He was the blue-collar bailout to the white-collar part of the team. They also de-emphasized in later seasons the fact that Willy was an unhesitant killer.
@@MrEab2010 Your "blue collar" reference is really important. In addition to muscle, Willy's working-stiff identity was a great asset. It basically made him invisible to the arrogant jet setters and elites that the IM team frequently targeted.
@@daveconleyportfolio5192 Lupus' Willy was a masterful covert operative. He was also scary, as I believe his role was to be a cleaner, i.e., someone who terminated any agent who got out of line or was compromised. When Cinnamon was captured in East Germany, I got this feeling that Willy had orders to kill helps if he couldn't figure out a way to get her back.
The original Mission Impossible series 1966-1973 were brilliant - I loved the performances of all the team - the acting was so convincing - everything came together the fashion style, immaculate grooming of the actors - the slickness of production and quality scripts.
Those later Tom Cruise orientated Mission Impossible movies were rubbish.
Great to hear from each of these actors. The show was fabulous(in that very 60's way), the actors were IMO the type they don't make an more.
Mission Impossible seasons 1, 2 and 3 were the best of the series. RIP Steven Hill, Martin Landau and Peter Graves. Barbara Bain! She was the Queen of deception!
Thought Barbra bain still alive ?
@@karenjanicehollick1545 She is.
One of the best shows ever...easily top 10
Loved that show
One of my favorites after all these years.
Great actors, and the show itself was always clever, intelligent, classy and fun. Im not a fan of the movies. They didn't have the charm of the TV series.
Fantastic series ❤️Starring First Steven Hill ,Then replaced by Peter Graves as Jim Phelps ,Barbara Bain as Cinnamon Carter from Martin Landau as Rollin Hand ,Greg Morris as Barney Collier and Peter Lupus as Willy Armitage who were Great as the IMF cast then Leonard Nimoy as Paris who replaced Martin Landau and Barbara Bain ,Sad that they left ,Great music from Lalo Schiffrin and Bruce Geller who created this classic series ❤️🇺🇸
Watching these classic shows now in the UK, they are interspersed with "modern" shows allegedly on a similar theme. From the trailers they are 100% shooting and violence, a fraction of the quality of the MI scripts and programmes.
The Sixties TV, like music and movies, was just one after another debut of fantastic entertainment for this young baby boomer. Social issues were on the backburner, story and characters were number one. The first three years of MI were among the top of the heap in a very crowded field.
Great Martin Landau, he was sensational!
I didn’t know he was playing up the chemistry between him and Cinnamon, I always kind of figured they were close characters because they were both actors first and agents second
Martin talks about wearing those pieces of latex that fit over his face for the first episode. I thought it was ingenious when he impersonated someone, they used a so-called plastic face to put on Martin, but it was really that someone playing Martin impersonating him.
Barbara Bain in her knit outfits held and smoked her cigarettes most seductively!
Her smoking style ranks with Julie London, Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren, Beverly Garland, Cheryl Ladd and Eva Longoria.
I always felt Mr. Briggs liked Ms. Carter. It would have been a great subplot in the first year to create a rivalry between Rollin vs. Dan Briggs for Cinnamon's affections!
actually Briggs had a thing for a guest star, a trapeze artist played by Mary Ann Mobley. Cinnamon had the hots for Rollin, played by her real-life husband.
The first 3 seasons were the best, with Barbara and Martin. It’s too bad they had to leave over money. Leonard Nimoy was good, but not the same as Martin.
They were pretty much forced out by Paramount's then exec VP in charge of production, Douglas S. Cramer, who was a notorious penny-pincher (who made Lucille Ball look like Orson Welles in comparison) - and later forced Bruce Geller out of his own creation in a power struggle. Cramer was never a fan of Ms. Bain and spoke dismissively of her, especially post-"M:I," in Patrick J. White's book on the show. CBS was furious and never forgave Cramer over it; it wasn't until 1972 that Paramount would sell another show to CBS. You may have heard of it - the misbegotten "Me and the Chimp." About as much a middle-finger as when James Aubrey greenlit a sitcom from his good buddy Keefe Brasselle, "The Baileys of Balboa," because he HATED a show Sherwood Schwartz produced that would go on the air the same year - "Gilligan's Island." (For that matter, the casting of Paul Ford as Sam Bailey may've been Aubrey and Brasselle's f--u to Phil Silvers, who bankrolled "Gilligan.")
I regret never watching this series. I might have seen one or two episodes as a kid. Rewatching Space 1999 in 2024 now.
Very well done, doesnt Kortney Wilson from Matters of Flip look like a younger Barb Bain ? just beautiful
Fantastic serie!
I'm the one who is still alive - in Australia. Just making my way through the entire series, with a great deal of enjoyment. And marvelling at the size of the 2-door car that "Mr Phelps" used to drive in many of the opening scenes. The back boot was the same size as the front lid over the engine.
Anyone know what make of car it was ?
1967 Dodge Coronet R/T
@@moriahfeatherrae8265 Thanks for reading. Or possibly a 1967 Mercury Park Lane Convertible (www.imdb.com/title/tt0060009/trivia).?
Though that same site also lists your choice.
Neither was sold in Australia - both out of my league !
I would have loved to see them on an episode of law and order when Steven hill was on there.
Barbara Bane's heaven's job
懐かしい
全てが懐かしい
バーバラ・ベインに本気で恋していた
小学四年生の夏
米ソ冷戦下でスパイアクションドラマが
大量に作られた中での金字塔だった。
自分はMission Impossibleで世の中とは裏の世界が有ると小学生ながら学習した。
*Bain.
I'm curious what does @Shatner Method think of the Tom Cruise movies?
I remember when the first head of the Impossible Missions Force was replaced after the first season, and I actually didn't like Peter Graves as much. It wasn't till years later that I found out that he was fired / left because, as an observant Jew, he wouldn't work on the Sabbath, which began at sundown on Friday night. This was a problem if shooting went over schedule, particularly for a weekly TV series that had only days to rehearse and film each episode.
You mean Stephan Hill he played Dan Briggs in the first season and left because of religious reasons, thats when Peter Graves who played Jim he went on through all seasons.
@@tibettelover08 Steven Hill would actually crash the neighboring Star Trek set on Friday nights, recruiting Shatner and Nimoy to fill out his minyan (a minimum number of participants) for prayer services.
@hebneh
You have made an error in your sentence composition, which is truly far too prone to extremely over-easy MISINTERPRETATIONS!!
YOU STRONGLY SHOULD HAVE MADE IT CLEAR, THAT: actor: Steven Hill was the subject of your stories; as the 1rst Season's IMF Head Operative Team Leader; &, NOT actor: Peter Graves, who only took the reins at the start of Season Two!
@@tibettelover08
*Steven Hill;...Correct spelling of his stage name;...->NOT: "Stephen".!
@@AndrewHeller-jn7dx I made no error, "grave" or otherwise. Re-read what I wrote.
she was indeed sensational wow I like to remember her how she looked ... ah well liked this anyway
Love it..😚💕💝🌠🌷
She looks like virna lisi the Italian actress.
On the magazine cover she looks like Lauren Bacall.
@@eddiefaccioni2453 - I wonder if the Cinnamon character was based, however loosely, on Candy Jones, for those who are familiar with her life story - and especially her time as an FBI agent and double life and her subjection to mind-control experiments by the CIA (as revealed in a biography by another Bain - Donald). After all, Ms. Jones herself, early in her career, was a model, and around the time "M:I" was winding down, had married Long John Nebel and was his co-host on radio.
I say Michelle Pfiefer.
@@susanbrogan3267
No comparison.
Before Susan Stone there was Barbara Bain.
@timstah11011
No connection between the two.
Why oh why did mission impossible let Barbara Bain and Martin Landau go? One of the stupidest moves ever in television.
And why after they left, didn’t MI bring back Bain and Landau to do guest spots? Those would have been rating blockbusters. Here we have wonderful TV personnel and executives putting on a great series and then ruining their own marvelous design.
