The Man from U.N.C.L.E.	comment	A one hour dramatic series which ran from September, 1964 through January, 1968 on NBC. Created by Norman Felton and Sam Rolfe with limited assistance from Ian Fleming. Fleming contributed the last name of the main hero, "Solo" (originally the name of a throwaway gangster from Goldfinger and its movie adaptation), and a minor character, April Dancer, who appeared in the main series in only one episode. (This episode was a Poorly-Disguised Pilot for the spin-off, The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.) The series also owes a lot of its style, especially in its "innocent gets caught up in international intrigue" conceit, to Alfred Hitchcock's North By Northwest.One of the very first shows to capitalize on the spy craze of the early 1960s, the series featured the adventures of two enforcement agents of a multinational law enforcement and intelligence organization: the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement. Their mission: an ongoing struggle against wrongdoers who threaten world security, especially their recurring nemesis, an organization known as THRUSH, which strives for world domination. The series's unique gimmick was that just about every episode involved an "innocent civilian" in the week's plot. Sometimes the civilian was a willing volunteer in U.N.C.L.E.'s machinations against its opponents, but other times the innocent was merely a passerby who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and thereby became involved in the plot (i.e., a Heroic Bystander).Robert Vaughn was billed as the star, cast as the American, Napoleon Solo, U.N.C.L.E.'s top enforcement agent. His sidekick, Russian native Illya Kuryakin, was intended by the producers to be merely an occasionally recurring minor character, but fans became so smitten with David McCallum's portrayal of Kuryakin that he almost immediately became a series regular, was billed as a co-star early in the first season, and rose to equal billing with Vaughn by the second season. Completing the regular U.N.C.L.E. contingent was veteran character actor Leo G. Carroll, cast as Alexander Waverly, U.N.C.L.E.'s chief in their New York City headquarters.Almost as popular as the stars were the various items of high tech (for the early-to-mid-60s milieu of the show) spy equipment used by the U.N.C.L.E. agents in their various missions; the most iconic of which became their communications devices (disguised as cigarette cases in the first season, changing to pens◊ in the second through fourth seasons) and their pistols, the "U.N.C.L.E. special,"◊ which by the addition of a barrel extension, stock, telescope, and extended magazine could be converted into a cool looking carbine. (It's famous today as the alternate mode of Megatron from Transformersnote The toy's original Japanese "story" was that it was one of several items in a child's bedroom brought to life, and he just happened to have an "U.N.C.L.E. special" toy in his room. When Hasbro was licensing molds to create the US Transformers toy lineup, they picked this menacing-looking toy to be the top villain). The gun itself was so popular it actually got its own fan mail, up to 400 pieces per week - many addressed to "The Gun" - at the show's height of popularity.The first season (broadcast in black and white because NBC had not yet transitioned to all-color broadcasting) is thought by many fans to be the best in the series' run. Producer Sam Rolfe left the series at the end of that season, frustrated with receiving too little credit for the series' success. Subsequent producers failed to understand the unique factors which made The Man From U.N.C.L.E. popular. Gradually, under the influence of the campy 1966 series Batman the series attempted to be an outright spy spoof and wound up ranging into farce, but less-than competent execution resulted in the show's hemorrhaging viewers. Still, at its peak the show was popular enough to inspire a Spin-Off, The Girl from U.N.C.L.E., about the adventures of U.N.C.L.E. agent April Dancer, and a host of U.N.C.L.E. novels.Nostalgia for the show in the early 1980s led to the production of a Reunion Show, The Return of The Man From U.N.C.L.E.: The Fifteen Years Later Affair. In the late 1980s The A-Team, which had cast Robert Vaughn as a regular, cast David McCallum as a guest star in a fifth season Homage episode titled "The Say U.N.C.L.E. Affair".The big-screen adaptation was in Development Hell for close to two decades (at one point Quentin Tarantino was interested in the project) but, was eventually released on August 14, 2015, directed by Guy Ritchie. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015) stars Henry Cavill as Napoleon Solo and Armie Hammer as Illya Kuryakin, with Hugh Grant as Mr. Waverly.

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. / int_112daba0	comment	Retired Badass: "The Odd Man Affair" features Albert Sully, a middle-aged former U.N.C.L.E. agent who doesn't feel alive unless he's in immediate danger. He forces Napoleon and Illya to let him impersonate a terrorist by claiming to be an expert on the man, but he's lying and has to seek help from an old girlfriend he worked with during World War II. Albert eventually proves his worth when he kills a terrorist leader who's trying to assassinate him with the leader's own bomb.

A scene on the airliner cuts in just as the inflight movie is ending, revealing a The End card which shows that the inflight movie was One Spy Too Many—which is in fact one of The Man From UNCLE compilation movies (basically, One Spy Too Many was composed of the two parts of the second season opening episode, "Alexander the Greater Affair (Parts I and II)" plus added footage). And in two third season episodes: 1) in "The Hula Doll Affair", Napoleon Solo receives a message to go to 555 Felton Avenue (which turns out to be the location of THRUSH's New York headquarters), while 2) in "The Cap and Gown Affair" a "Felton Hall" is named as one of the buildings on the Blair University campus. Norman Felton (as noted above) was one of the creators (as well as executive producer) of the series.

After he is discovered under the bed, Grandmama Monteri comes into the bedroom with a shotgun, tells Pia to go to the closet and get Grandmama's old wedding dress, and tells Solo that she's sending for the parish priest. In "The Apple a Day Affair" (Season 03, Ep. 27) Nina Lillette's grandpa (who is carrying a shotgun in every scene he appears) finds her in a "compromising position" with Solo, so he proceeds to call the local preacher...

According to both canon and Fanon, U.N.C.L.E. is an independent international organization, created shortly after the United Nations, and designated to take care of problems that the latter organization can't. The in-house United Nations newsletter once printed a Fan Fiction short piece where a U.N. employee, exploring the tunnels below the Secretariat building, ran into Napoleon Solo!

THRUSH wants to stimulate Solo's libido in the hopes that might reverse the Easy Amnesia induced by the "Capsule B" Solo took before THRUSH captured him. Hot THRUSH scientist Mara makes the transformation from geeky to hottie by the statutory means: removing her glasses and letting her hair down (though the rather fetching bikini she wears in one scene certainly doesn't get in the way). Various innocents-of-the-week also demonstrate this trope, especially when given access to U.N.C.L.E.'s costuming budget.

Whenever the series required an aircraft to be shot down—whether it be a single engined private plane, a multiengined jet aircraft, or a helicopter, whether it was shot down by a lucky rifle shot, antiaircraft artillery, or a missile—they would splice in this clip for the inevitable "airplane explodes in midair" scene. In the fourth season, the series had one favorite stock aerial photograph of a coral island, which stood in for several island locations in several episodes: the Caribbean island location of Club Thanatopsis in "The THRUSH Roulette Affair," the remote island location of U.N.C.L.E.'s Survival School in "The Survival School Affair," and the island of Irbos in "The Man from THRUSH Affair."

In The Teaser, Solo and Kuryakin are attacked by THRUSH agents while on the Venetian canals, and Solo winds up diving into the canal to save his life. In the first scene of Act I, it's mentioned that Solo has caught pneumonia as a result of his swim in Venice, and is on sick leave recovering; for that reason Mr. Waverly teams Kuryakin with The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.'s partner, Mark Slate. The episode's Girl of the Week is built up for the entire episode as Slate's Love Interest, only to have a recovered Solo appear in The Tag to sweep her off her feet and away from Slate. Also in the fourth season episode "The Survival School Affair" (the only episode of the series in which series co-lead Robert Vaughn did not appear at all), where Napoleon Solo's absence is brushed off by a mention that Mr. Waverly had given him another assignment.

The production team and MGM never raised any objection to the acronym. Several novel and Fan Fiction authors have made use of a gag whereby various THRUSH fronts have names whose acronyms are the same as the evil organization's name.

The boy, far from being spoiled, is at least as (if not more) mature and worldly wise than his caretakers.

Subverted in the fourth season episode "The Summit-Five Affair", where it is Napoleon Solo who bears the brunt of a brutal interrogation (bordering on torture) by an apparent THRUSH double-agent within U.N.C.L.E.'s Berlin office who appears to be attempting to cover his tracks. And inverted in one episode where Kuryakin impersonated Identical Stranger Maximilian Nexor, a fascist Secret Police type ... torturing Napoleon Solo. The act in which this happened was titled, "How to Strain a Friendship."

In the first scene, Mr. Waverly then explains that Solo has contracted pneumonia from that swim, and assigns The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.'s sidekick Mark Slate as Kuryakin's partner for that episode. The rest of the episode sets up the Girl of the Week as Mark Slate's Love Interest. However, during The Tag at the very end of the episode, Solo swoops in and steals the Girl Of The Week away from Slate. Inspires a great Deadpan Snarker moment from Slate and Kuryakin:

The writers then apparently pass the Idiot Ball to Solo, as he tells her that he is going to place a phone call to his superiors, and she is not to move until he returns. And of course, she immediately sprints away the minute Solo turns his back on her. Possible inversion, however, since Solo stays very close on her heels as she runs away, and he and Illya immediately tail her as she attempts to meet her THRUSH beau, raising the possibility (never explicitly stated in the episode) that Solo may have purposely allowed her to escape.

In the course of the episode he seduces Dr. Simon True's widow, Amanda, only to tell her that he did not love her but was only using her to procure Dr. True's formula, he smacks around Amanda before ordering her killed, and he smacks around several of Dr. True's stepdaughters and his daughter.

The innocent-of-the-week leads the chairman on a merry chase over the rooftops of New York City, all the time under fire by the assassins. Even though the assassins have a clear shot, and the chairman and the innocent are not moving very fast, not one shot even comes close to them. Possibly justified, in that this episode was Played for Laughs (as indicated by the title, it was the show's only Christmas Episode), and the lead assassin is pretty much characterized as an incompetent bungler.

It was more jarring, though, when the show had to do location shooting. One blatant example comes in "Alexander The Greater Affair" (as noted, this was the only episode not to begin with "The"), where Southern California is expected to: stand in for Northern Virginia. Possibly justified if one interprets this as SoCal standing in for the Blue Ridge Mountains, which can easily be seen from the western fringes of the Washington suburbs.

Then they remove their hoods and wave at him as he takes off. Love has just enough time for an Oh, Crap! reaction before his own bomb blows him out of the sky.

Possibly a "handgun on steroids", it can convert to a carbine (by addition of a stock, telescopic sight, and barrel and magazine extensions), and fires regular bullets, sleep darts, and in at least one episode ("The Indian Affairs Affair") fired a "communicator dart" which allowed Solo to converse, via his communicator, with some THRUSH hostages.

He's obsessed with "virtue" and thinks that white is its representative color, so everything associated with him is white: his outfit (including his Eyepatch of Power!), his Mooks' uniforms, his furniture, etc. However, his plan to restore virtue to France is to destroy its wine-making districts—with a nuclear missile. Evil Costume Switch: When Robespierre is about to launch the nuke, he switches to an all-black outfit to mourn all the innocent people he'll be forced to kill in order to save France from itself.
