The Girl From U.N.C.L.E.: The Complete Series Part Two

Good enjoyable series

Fans of Stefanie Powers should have this as a staple in their collection

Having access to multi-region DVD machines I was overjoyed to be able to buy this series on DVD at last. Unfortunately when the DVD set arrived I found it would not work in my main machine, which is a DVD recorder.On checking the small print on the back of the DVD box it seems that this item [and other similar sets I ordered recently] is not manufactured to play in either DVD recorders or on PC DVD drives - only on DVD players.Luckily I can still view the series on a regular DVD player but buyers beware if they perhaps rely on using their PCs to view their DVDs.Otherwise would highly recommend this set. Only removing one star because of the sheer hassle of not being able to use my 'main' machine to play it.

great

brilliant

This review applies to Part One as well. about which I wrote a favourable review some time ago. I have now seen nearly all the eps on both DVDs, and whilst I feel sad and a bit mean writing the following, I do it in the spirit of helpfulness and honesty. First - the good part..The prints are all excellent. Every ep crystal clear, lovely colour and sound. Also Stephanie Powers has seldom looked lovlier, and the camera and director obviously love her, as do we all. But... After so much viewing, I have to say how disapointing the series as a whole has turned out. The plots are silly without being amusing, I mean very silly. The action scenes are terrible and most of every ep is filmed on indoor sets or obvious MGM backlots. For heavens sake they even have April Dancer losing fights, yelling for help, and being rescued by her partner Mark Slate! Ah, and that brings me to Noel Harrison!..Was there ever a more unlikely...Oh stop! I am sounding petty, but I was so looking forward to seeing this series again after so long, and after each episode I was getting more and more frustrated. OK, it's all a personal opinion, and many people will probably disagree, and love the series. I just felt I had to correct my initial enthusiam. If you fancy a go, just order 1 part first and see what you think. Good luck and hope more folk enjoy it
