The Man from U.N.C.L.E. is an American television series that was broadcast on NBC from September 22, 1964, to January 15, 1968. It follows the exploits of two secret agents, played by Robert Vaughn and David McCallum, who work for a fictitious secret international espionage and law-enforcement agency called U.N.C.L.E.
Originally co-creator Sam Rolfe wanted to leave the meaning of U.N.C.L.E. ambiguous so it could be viewed as either referring to "Uncle Sam" or the United Nations. Concerns by the MGM Legal department about possible New York law violations for using the abbreviation "U.N." for commercial purposes resulted in the producers clarifying that U.N.C.L.E. was an acronym for the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement.
Each episode of the television show had an "acknowledgement" credit to the U.N.C.L.E. on the end titles. Ian Fleming contributed to the show's concepts after being approached by the show's co-creator, Norman Felton. The theme music, written by Jerry Goldsmith, changed slightly each season.

When I was in fourth grade, I'd sit in class minding my own business talking into my pen.
You had a pen in the 4th grade? Explains why I never got a response talking through my pencil. 🤣

Have you had any friends?
@@swaldron5558 all my friends still use pencils.
Open channel D!
I'm 60 years old and this was one of my favorite childhood favorite tv shows.
Uncle means what
Did you have the Man from UNCLE pyjamas and glow-in-the-dark badge?
@@Green_Gryphon LOL !
Rest in Peace Agent #2
I loved it also. I ran home with my PF Flyers.
Rest In Peace, David McCallum. Thanks for being a big part of my childhood.
Y de la de muchos como nosotros.
I have a card, with the two of them on, and their signatures underneath. You got a stick of chewing gum, and a few cards in a pack. The back of the cards when laid together, made a big picture!
Robert Vaughn and David McCallum are together again. May they forever RIP.
I've still got my U.N.C.L.E I.D. card from when I became an agent in 1966
What does uncle stand for
@@TOCC50 united nations command for law enforcement.
I had one too and left it on the window sill and a thrush flew off with it.
It actually stands for United Network Command for Law and Enforcement . MGM made it clear that the show had nothing to do with the United nations .
Thanks Thomas.
It was on Monday Nights in my area. I couldn't wait to get settled down in front of our old B&W TV. Just to get a snack and hear the opening -the horns blasting away, it signaled the arrival of those handsome agents, Napoleon Solo & Illya Kuryakin. Another adventure filled with danger, dames, and romance. Oh, lest we forget Mr. Waverly. Long live the "Man From Uncle" and long live spies and long live Spies, Agents, and Espionage!
RIP Leo G Carroll 1886- 1972
Robert Vaughn 1932- 2016

😞🙏💔🌹⭐
I really like this series. It's like Get Smart without the laugh track. Vaughn and McCallum are funny and cool together and totally iconic.
Yes! Loved them! Soooo cool and cute!
Get Smart was Mel Brooks and Buck Henry spoofing The Man from U.N.C.L.E..
Great tune. Growing up was so much fun back then.
Loved this and Robert Vaughn was so cool and witty.
Ian Fleming came up with the name Napoleon Solo and a few of the early plots.
Everyone was thin, beautiful and exceedingly well dressed. Oh, those were the days . . .
Watching this as a kid really got me out my neighborhood. Amazing to think how long ago this was.
I 💕 loved this show. My sister, brother and I were secret agents when we played outside.
Oh wow I hadn't seen those closing credits since it was originally on. But they immediately were like I never stopped watching them for the last 59 years.
Music was great, thought maybe it was Lalo Schafrin, who did many movies/tv, but it was Jerry Goldsmith's theme. RIP Illya
When I was in the sixth grade i was enamored with this show, and i became The Man from U. N. C. L. E.
Rest in Peace 🙏 🪦 Actor David McCallum
Please bring back the 60s
Time spent gazing at David McCallum is never wasted....what a hunk!!
Good natured, action-packed fun. Excellent music. There's a lot to like about this series.
I had the Man from Uncle set oh wow
The man from u.n.c.l.e. was a great show when I was growing up. Still is. Love watching the episodes.
Absolutely made my youth - I hung on my next viewing of this marvelous series.
Robert Vaughn, RIP. A class act....

6 years later, David McCallum passed away too
Thanks this is the best youtube version of the music to the man from UNCLE.
I read the paperback novels too. Quite good reads actually.
I loved the show especially the names!!!
I have 58 years old, ... yet a babie....! Well when I was a child of 6 years old I saw every chapter of Mr. Solo and Illya Kuriakin secret agents from C.I.P.O.L. in vintage T.V. ...!! Thanks, great souvenirs ! Grillo.
The theme songs were awesome just like the TV Series. These shows were shown because of the Cold War that existed at the time. Most of episodes were awesome I guess the 1960's wouldn't be complete without this TV Series. The guns that they carried with silencers on them and made a distinctive sound when fired. Thrush soldiers with their M14 rifles with a sniper scope mounted on it. Talking to you're pen while writing isn't normal unless you're an U.N.C.L.E. Agent talking to Mr. Waverly.
It was the era of JFK. Everyone looked so sexy and sophisticated in those days. 60s will never repeat itself.
What a time it was when this was airing. Hot chicks and hot cars.
Great show. Inspiration for many adventures as a kid.
RIP David McCallum,26/09/2023
RIP Robert Vaughn and David McCallum
It good to see David M. Still going Strong on NCIS Show Today from the Man Of UNCLE..Robert V. Rest In Peace.. N your Boss LEO of The Topper Show..
I used to hide in bushes around my house thinking i was a secret agent, it was very impressionable for a kid
The Original Title For The Man From
U . N . C. L . E . Was Ian Fleming's Solo , and The Original Title For The Girl From
U . N . C . L . E . Was The Girl From
A . U . N . T . I . E . The Acronym For Associated Unified Nations Taskforce for International Enforcement .
God Rest David McCallum❤
Used to watch this show growing up. It was pretty clever for the mid sixties.
WOW this show was GREATNESS.
Ah, well done SUPERNOVAS, ... so cool, GOLDEN BRUCE, GOLDEN BUGS AND GOD BLESS BIG DADDY. CLASSICAL QUALITY INNUENDO AND INTRIGUING STORY LINES and life lesson learnings toss together, in WHITE GOD MAGIC . ☆
The early year B&W intro was the best!
It made my heart smile when Jethro Gibbs answered a question about what Dr. Mallard looked like when he was young with "Illya Kuryakin"
The closing credit, "We wish to thank …" created quite a bit of controversy when it was first seen. Never could find Del Floria's Tailor Shop.
Used to watch this with my mum! Had a crush on David McCallum LOL Loved the soundtrack!! I remember lots of these clips.
Two gorgeous guys and a killer theme tune, man, they just don't make em like this anymore!!!
(:;I Rest In Peace... Vaughn... Eternal Solo.

oui....bon souvenirs ...en France !
Believe it or not while hanging out in Puerto Rico I ran into a cat that work as an agent for the United Nations. He was convalescing from an injury sustained while on a raid to apprehend a criminal king pin on some Caribbean island !!!
remember seeing these as re runs when i was a 70s kid vaughn was in the protectors and mc callum in sapphire and steel also watched these as well.
Everytime I watch a TV series from the 60s, 70s, and early 80s
I always notice how much more atrractive women were back then.
I need a time machine!!
And how tough the men were too! Boy they knew how to fight and thensome.
filthy comments
Now we have about 100 different genders and 'woke' advertising. Its fucking great isn't it?
These comments are stupid
@Paul Kryder You know it, Pal! When I got out of the Army one of the hottest girls I ever dated had ruined herself with Fricking tattoos all over her shoulders and neck!
And of course her hair was purple, pink, and short.
No Dick for her!
The original theme by it's originator Jerry Goldsmith was by far the best . Everyone else just followed his lead.....
He supposedly hated the bongos in the Lalo Shifrin version.
Robert Vaughn could kiss the enemy spy controls into submission. He would put his chin in it, Vitalis keeping his hair suave and in place, Illya,rockin the black turtleneck, and a nitroglycerin filled gadget to blow their way out of trouble, finally, Mr Leo G.Carroll, the OG of Spymasters,putting the Whole curtain in Check.
The U.N.C.L.E theme song -- second year's version, as from 2:16 - 3:11 -- is THE best theme song for ANY spy show in my opinion. As said earlier, Lalo S. at his best !
burlingtonbill1 Mission Imposs is better but both are excellent
name a brilliant theme that Lalo *didn't* write !!
Agreed! The percussion (bongos? Sorry, not sure what they are) added an great element to the theme, and the progression from 2:45 to 2:52, I still find it hard to wrap my head around. This was the best of the show's music.
Don't suppose anyone has a guitar tab for it?
@@graytonw5238 Probably bongos and wood blocks. Schifrin used those extensively in Mission: Impossible among other things.
Great show too watch as a kid growing up 😤
The original, the very first version of the theme was, of course, the best.
David MacCallum can be found on NCIS. Dr. Ducky Mallard. Mark Harmon from St. Elsewhere is there also.
RIP David McCallum
I see it on true entertainment the first season in black and white rarely seen since it aired thank God for the dvd released.
3:10: We wish to thank the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement without whose assistance this program would not be possible. 😂😂😂
Clever. Very clever.
The topic of many conversations regarding the authenticity of the organization in elementary school.
Back in the day. What an era to grow up in.
I remember when this show was on. The end.
This and get smart my preschool TV intake..
RIP David MCallum
Classic TV series.
I suddenly don’t feel so alone😂😂😂😂
In the first season, The theme was totally different from the 1965-68 theme.
remember watching that show growing up, I was 6, 7 y/o. "Open Channel D"
Rohn Daughtry I remember that too!!!!
I had a total crush on Robert Vaughn when I was a little girl😁
In my opinion, this is a great theme that should have been more fully developed.
hey there. check out hugo montenegro's cover of the theme
Note: Currently distributed by Warner Bros. Television Distribution.
Loved the show in 1964 I was born
So it was later on in the years I
Used to have series on DVD came
Like a atache case Collection I enjoyed watching all episodes cool spy, espionage TV show.
Ducky as a young person
Damn - that was the "I made it in half an hour and then submitted it for credit" end of credits, minimal credit everything. It was like watching something made for ITV or the BBC.
The odd thing about this is in a flashback on NCIS, younger Ducky even dressed the same as Kuryakin.
Didn't they reuse alot of the same sets on Mission: Impossible?
The first series music was the best, really gutsy.
I read that each season of TMFU had a slightly different theme - What season is this?
I have an old flyer from the show. Has Vaughn & McCallum on the bill. I have a Robert Vaughn’s autograph but not McCallum’s. How can I get his?
How the feck do we know?
This is just the second season version of the TV theme. The other 3 seasons all had different versions.

This single video is better than that rubbish remake...
Classic...
TERRIFIC! In the UK in the 60s and 70s we shot programmes on rubbish video tape, it was the US which gave us quality programmes shot on FILM which still look today like UNCLE, BATMAN, BONANZA, STAR TREK, THE BIG VALLEY, THE VIRGINIAN, RAWHIDE, COLUMBO, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA, and many others.
David Alexander from Michigan?
Two cool ass classy gents who are still ranked #1 as far as duos go. The names alone are cool. Napoleon Solo & Illya Kuryakin. (My bad if it's spelled wrong) My second favorite male duo belongs to Sonny Crockett & Rico Tubbs.
And my favorite male duo is Lt. Mike Stone and Insp. Steve Keller of The Streets of San Francisco (70s ABC police/detective series, w/Karl Malden and Michael Douglas).
@@bmasters1981 I remember it well. I just couldn't get into that show, and to be honest, wasn't really that into U.N.C.L.E either. Vice will be my favorite duo show.... unless I'm forgetting something. Favorite ensembled group show? Hill Street Blues and Blue Bloods.
For me i'd say Kelly Robinson and Alexander "Scotty" Scott from I Spy, Startsky and Hutch, Crockett & Tubbs and Frank Pembleton and Tim Bayliss.
I have now two new favorite male TV duos, both from an old 70s NBC medical/action series called Emergency!: Doctors Kelly Brackett and Joe Early, and Firemen/Paramedics Roy DeSoto and John(ny) Gage.
Did any one else make their own uncle ID’s?
super
NBC is the place to be
Get groovy stay groovy
Lalo Schifrin arraigned The UNCLE theme for the second season (Fact)
00:50 drummer puts his sticks in the same hand and a click is heard
The first season in B&W was the best. It got rather silly after that. Ditto for Lost in Space.
Agree....Lost in Space did not age well. I can't imagine many adults watched it back then.

@@lalkayy.9541 Thank you.
Greatest Spy series of all time.
Commandos in suits..
Don't they use Armani suits in the army?
These Aren't the original openings.. The TV show was NOT WIDESCREEN....
Yes, that's my beef, too. Great quality source material, why crop it?
You'd be surprised how many people joined the CIA in the FBI after watching The Man from Uncle
At the 2,55 mark take a GOOD look at the graphic. their were many tv shows and movie's would have a graphic that said, we would like to thank the department of defense and the us navy or the us army this film would not be made, well this graphic would make you thank if youdid not know better, that U N C L E was a REAL outfit and not just a TV show, it must have been part of the joke.

Remember the show. Lackluster music..
