That show was beyond cool. We all watched it religiously. All the girls at school (third grade?) had crushes on Ilya-- he was The Beatle-Mania of TV. Even my little sister gushed about him. Phenomenal! Anyway, most of us got the banter/ribbing between Napoleon and Ilya (even at that young age), and attempted replication of it out on the playground-- good times!
😄😄 loved this program. I was 15 when the man from uncle came on t.v. watched until it went off the air in 1968. I'm glad i came across different scenes Thanks alot.😀💕
I had a cousin who lived in Illinois... I lived in Wisconsin. We were both members of U.N.C.L.E. Sending letters to each other about T.H.R.U.S.H. activities. Great fun times.
I was a Man From U.N.C.L.E. fan when it came out. I haven't seen it in years. Now that David McCallum has died, it seems odd to see it again. McCallum was the forensic scientist / pathologist on the NCIS series for many years.
The Man From UNCLE, Wild, Wild West, It Takes a Thief, Mission Impossible, The Avengers and of course, Get Smart!! We never missed an episode as a kid. I think this genre replaced the westerns, thank goodness!!
I was a 60s schoolboy and The Man from UNCLE was an absolute favourite with all of us. We'd watch it and then outside to play it. Years later, as an adult watching Hustle I saw the magic of Robert Vaughan's timing and humour again. David McCallum in NCIS was the only good thing about that show.
Yeah,this was the late 1960”s,all right!I have the whole show in that silver briefcase on my bookshelf!Except,I never saw this back in the late 1960”s!I only remember;Perry Mason,Gilligan’s Island,and The Flintstone’s!You can’t remember everything in you’re life!My mom(late mom)used to tell me.
This brings me back to the sixth grade, all the girls went nuts over these two guys. It was a good show, interesting and fun. Definitely shows the times how people dressed and acted.

It was a shame that the TV channels always backed up the good shows like Man from Uncle and get smart against one another Secret Asian man so you couldn't watch him all at once I didn't remember the Man from Uncle being this funny
@@dalezarbaugh1639 I agree. It also shows how good they were back in the 1960s for the competition. I have already watched reruns wondering why we did not watch the show and that was why.
So much for no fratnercising. I guess Napoleon doesn't think the rule applies to him. I hardly think Mr. Waverly would leave that out for obvious reasons.
This series was so popular at one point, they even got Sonny & Cher to appear. The funny thing is, the ratings dropped after a couple of seasons, so it was cancelled.
9:05 LOL Solo with the sweet little blond and is told by Illya "Napoleon, I know you have a need" Funny as a kid that comment would have passed me by. Early TV was very strict on what was said, and seen, yet shows did sneak stuff in.
I love this video!! There is so much action and the theme song makes it even better. I could watch The Man From Uncle forever. Napoleon and Illya were the best in any situation. I still love them and they loved each other. This video will always be a hit and I watch it a little too much but it's worth my time. Thank you!
Much better than the latest movie. Illya and Napoleon were working colleagues that became friends. They were NOT Illya/Napoleon as some writers suggested. Spock and Kirk as well as Starsky/Hutch were also messed up this way to appease certain groups. Maybe they should make some groups recently disabled to make others happy too.
I had two models of these guys Napoleon Solo was in a squatted position and shooting around a brick wall Second model was of Illya Kuryakin and he was jumping over another brick wall section the two basis snap together I wish I still had them . 5:40 Girl looks like Cher .
It is Cher, and Sonny. He works in a clothing design company in N Y's Garment District and Cher is a model who also works there. He's in love with her but is very shy to tell her. He finally gets the girl .
Back then Anyone who was a celebrity whether well known or just starting like Sonny and Cher. Would have their Agent's ( pun intended ) make arrangements to show up on other TV shows . Sometimes you would NOT Believe who would show up . For example on an episode of The Monkees Adam West and Burt Ward along with Cesar Romero and Burgess Meredith showed up but not in costume .
That was "Enterprise's mistake later. They should have had an intro theme song for all seasons and various intro themes for each seasons instead of that one song. The writing was what failed both and both only lasted 4 seasons. I was introduced to "MFU" when I was about 11 by my father and he also told me about "Star Trek".
@@virginiaconnor8350 What ruined the show was the shift to all this goofiness. They were trying to compete with Batman (which was ALL goofiness) who was getting higher ratings,. The first couple of seasons of UNCLE were extremely good, as good as Bond, maybe better, and there was no goofiness in them. The switch caused many of the fans to leave, making ratings plummet. They tried going back to the original style (watch the last season) but by then it was too late . Watch also the first seasons, one of the very first episodes had Captain Kirk and Spock as guests. (not in those characters of course). The first episodes were also in black and white . The source for this information is the extras that come when you buy the whole set of UNCLE, which I did .
Watched this as a young kid back in the day. Like all kids we didn't know it was a spoof, hard to believe nowadays but I had a toy 22mm Luger pistol favoured by Illya Kuryakin and the broom handle Mouser Napoleon Solos choice. Shoulder holster badge the lot and I was may be 6 e or 7 years old. Somehow they made the Cold War era back then some kind of hip cool thing. Anyway loved it and the music was cool
Never saw this as a child, being a sixties baby, really quite amusing, Havent had many spy dramas' or comedies not since Get Smart and Mission IMpossible, god I wish they'd uplaod some of these shows!!!! in english subtitles
Too bad Hulu or Netflex doesn't carry it. I have the DVD set. Illya and Napoleon were working colleagues. They had girlfriends and were NOT gay as made by video makers. Just because they were friends who worked well together, that didn't make them any closer. Besides, Illya preferred dark-haired ladies-except for the lady David's wife played (Marion). Loved the humour in "MFU".
You don't have to strain your imagination to see similarities between MFU and Archer. Yes the later is built on comedy but they lifted many ideas and situations from MFU. Get Smart deserves a mention as well.
@@virginiaconnor8350 Now that has really bucked up my day.That David preferred brunettes.Yet Jill Ireland was blond.Actually I recall that episode well.Marion having a party & Illya dropping by.Her indignant "I nearly got killed!"And his "Those were exiting days!"
After a not so great day,how lovely to see two old friends in Illya & Napoleon.Illya was sister Jen's pin up boy at the time.And just remembered how the girls in my year would chant "Hava Nagilla,bring back our Illya"That really rings some old memories.Enjoyed the show but was more into westerns, especially Bonanza.
@@Woodman-Spare-that-tree That's interesting.My fav,Peter Tork also taught for a couple of years.Lucky students.Maybe he could've even got me to like math!
Very good "Tronyfree"! Brings back wonderful memories when things were simpler back then. I loved those shows as they were very entertaining and very accurate even though our own "agencies" did NOT want us to now about. Similar to INTERPOL in some ways, but not the same.Too much corruption even now and inside the U.N.) I later went into the USSS in Wash.D.C.(1974) and also took care of Embassy Security(FMD) as well as counter-terrorism and The White House-WHD(Ford & Carter) and I was probably one of very few who took all my previous training seriously including martial arts. Not ALL "agents" are trained in Martial Arts, etc....
I started watching the original Outer Limits on ROKU this New Year's Eve and saw a character who seemed vaguely familiar in an episode called The Sixth Finger. It was David McCallum who I later connected to The Man From Uncle from the 1960s. I was just a small child then and really didn't follow the plot but I remember the character. The show was on every Friday night as I remember.
I remember seeing that episode too but not much else about it. After checking on IMDB it did ring some bells. He becomes a super intelligent being. David McCallum has been a very busy actor through the many years he's been working.
@@tronyfree He did at least one episode in the 1990s Outer Limits series, also. It was in one of, I think a handful of remakes of the 60s series. Feasibility Study was the name of that episode. David Mccallum is in the 90s remake of Feasibility Study. Aliens carve out part of a town (neighborhood) and take it to their planet to see if humans would make good slaves for the aliens.
To our host "trony" for whom we're grateful for posting this gem: Since you're blessed with a long memory with your mention of the Road Pictures, "U.N.C.L.E." was filmed in that movie series' aspect ratio of 1.33 : 1 aka 4x3. How awkward it would be to see Paramount's b&w Road prints awkwardly and needlessly manipulated into a phony widescreen as is done here. How about giving another go at this so we see how PERFECTLY it looked in the '60s when MGM delivered its standard format, 35 mm Metrocolor prints to NBC, i.e., 1.33 : 1, for presentation to its millions of "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." viewers?
Some years ago on NCIS one character was asking another, “What did Ducky look like when he was a young man?” The other character replied, “He looked like Illya Kuryakin.”
I remember that too... It did make me chuckle and smile. I remember thinking, one of the writers must have been smiling themselves as they wrote it (obviously wondering if the producers would allow it into the episode) - LOL!🙂 👍🇬🇧
My favorite line from NCIS was when someone asked Gibbs what Ducky looked like when he was young and Gibbs said, "He looked like Illya Kuryakin".
Yes,n if I recall rightly,got a severe look from Ducky.
@Susan McCormick no - just watched that episode. Ducky wasn't there.
It was actually Abby who asked Gibbs and yes, it was a great line though I'm guessing anyone under the age of 50 didn't get it. My wife didn't lol.
Actually it was Katelyn
@@dexterfurman9118I think the "not getting it" was part of the point, because it meant that Gibbs had watched "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." as a teen. Pointing out fun gaps between generations.
Let's take a moment to realize that both of these actors went went on to have great careers. Both of them. That is rare in television.
Those two were like brothers, they even snarked at each other.
No childhood was complete without watching the Man From Uncle.
Brilliant trianulations? Meng Lin Qi?
@@coreycox2345 Yes.
In 3rd grade, we had graduated from pencils to pens (just Dramatically take the cap off...). We used them for "communicators" in our spy games. The only lunchbox I ever had was a "Man From UNCLE".
Agreed Meng.
Facts
One of my favorite shows back in the day! R.I.P. David and Robert. Love the series. Will Cherish it forever!
I didn't know David McCallum had died. Sad!
They were beyond cool, a piece of my 60s childhood that will never be forgotten..
Agree
Me too
bat man was better
👏🏻❤️
Rest In Peace, Robert Vaughan and David McCallum. Thank you for my childhood. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My childhood was enriched watching the Man from Uncle.
That show was beyond cool. We all watched it religiously. All the girls at school (third grade?) had crushes on Ilya-- he was The Beatle-Mania of TV. Even my little sister gushed about him. Phenomenal! Anyway, most of us got the banter/ribbing between Napoleon and Ilya (even at that young age), and attempted replication of it out on the playground-- good times!
Lol.
When I was a kid I lived for this show. I worshipped Ilya Kuryakin.
I did too , I cried when it went off the air !
THEY WORKED FANTASTICALLY TOGETHER
A relative of mine chatted to Rober Vaughn on the platform at Crewe Station not long before he died.
A very grounded and pleasant man.
😄😄 loved this program. I was 15 when the man from uncle came on t.v. watched until it went off the air in 1968. I'm glad i came across different scenes
Thanks alot.😀💕
I loved the man from uncle spy series as child in the 60s, so cool.
Loved that show! David McCallum was my first crush ! Thank you!
You are not supposed to have a crush on David McCallum because I had a nightmare that he was in a morgue with a dead body
10/6/2024. My first CRUSH was orange.
I had a cousin who lived in Illinois... I lived in Wisconsin. We were both members of U.N.C.L.E. Sending letters to each other about T.H.R.U.S.H. activities. Great fun times.
I was a Man From U.N.C.L.E. fan when it came out. I haven't seen it in years. Now that David McCallum has died, it seems odd to see it again. McCallum was the forensic scientist / pathologist on the NCIS series for many years.
So long, Illya Kuryakin! The U.N.C.L.E. won't be the same without you!
"Let's get a Scotsman to play a Russian !" went the Pitch Meeting....Why am I reminded of "Red October" /Sean Connery movie?....I kid.
Watching these as a very young lad was a treat . Great scripts , great characters , great actors . Class .
The Man From UNCLE, Wild, Wild West, It Takes a Thief, Mission Impossible, The Avengers and of course, Get Smart!! We never missed an episode as a kid. I think this genre replaced the westerns, thank goodness!!
How could you forget the best of all ISpy? 😠 lol

I loved Hustle. Was so sad when it wasn't continued. Robert Vaughn made that show.
My heart though has always belonged to illya.

I remember the Man from U.N.C.L.E. was on school lunchboxes in the 1960s plus many other favorite TV series of that time.
Mr. Waverly, typical Englishman. I have'nt seen a perfect Windsor knot in donkey's years.
My best friend in Jr. High was totally smitten with Ilya Kuryakin. I wish U.N.C.L.E. was available for streaming somewhere.
Rest in peace Dear David ❤😔
Loved this series when i was a kid.
I had pictures of Illya all over my room. I couldn’t believe when Jill Ireland left him for Charles Bronson 😅
David McCallum deserved to be cheated on because I had a nightmare that he was in a morgue with a dead body
Panache, humor and style. Thanks for this happy video - first-rate.
This brings me back to the sixth grade, all the girls went nuts over these two guys. It was a good show, interesting and fun. Definitely shows the times how people dressed and acted.
I loved Robert Vaughn . Now, much older I've watched a few episodes and switched my allegiance to David McCallum ❤
RIP Ducky, we will miss you!!!
My favorite show of all time Robert and David great chemistry David was so good on ncis as well
I had a serious crush on David McCallum.
The ONLY reason I watched this show as a young girl. 😂😂
@@niltamims3137 Let me guess, you were one of those "younger girls" about 12! I remember I was about 14-15! LOL!
David McCallum is a worthless animal because I had a nightmare that he was in a morgue with a dead body
Look at a young “Ducky” before he went to work at NCIS. 🤣👍
LOVED this show!!! This is a great video - thank you!
Napoleon was suave, Ilya was cool, and the theme song was bitchin'!
My fave MFU episodes were The Cherry Blossom Affair and The Arabian Affair.
Both were season two episodes.
David McCallum's Illya Kuryakin was my favorite. I really loved this show .
You aren't supposed to like David McCallum because I had a nightmare that he was in a morgue with a dead body
David McCallum once came into our local corner shop. I remember being quite in awe. It was Ilya Kuryakin. In our street. How?
You should have urinated on David McCallum because I had a nightmare that he was in a morgue with a dead body
My first love! David McCallum.
GREAT!!! Ahhhh the memories... Wish I was back there!!
"I should have known who it was when I saw you trip over your own feet." 😂😂😂
Thank you for posting this! Just a wonderful memory. Great banter.
What happy memories.
This and mission impossible were favourites of mine.
Thanks for the memories. Wow they were so young, but then it was more that 40 years ago.
More than 50 years ago, I’m afraid.
The show ended 43 years ago, but debuted 57 years ago! But either way you are correct, it still adds up to over 40 years ago.

Loved this show. Thanks
One word. Cool. And funny.
That's two words
I wish I could have this dialogues as some audio recording to listen to it whenever. The intrigue par excellence
@Jeff Spicolli okay, thanks
I was 5 years old and loved this show, that Christmas I got a man from uncle briefcase with a gun
The punches they threw in that age is really funny😂
Never seen an episode even though I've known about the show. Now I want to watch it for all the special guests.
RIP David McCallum (1933-2023)😢
This series was so popular at one point, they even got Sonny & Cher to appear. The funny thing is, the ratings dropped after a couple of seasons, so it was cancelled.
Thanks! they sure gaveme some laughs, in the scenes I saw so long ago, I had forgotten how funny they were.

So did anybody notice the two young women who would go on entertainment shows? Yep a young Barbara Eden and a very young Cher
Ducky! Very, very YOUNG Ducky!;)
They had so much chemistry
Didn't they?🤩
Sometimes you wondered if they liked each over. Nice video though, brought back memories.
The theme from Man from uncle was very catchy! It's fun to play on guitar!
If you syncopate it, you'll get the theme of Mission Impossible (back then) .
I love this video!! There is so much action and the theme song makes it even better. I could watch The Man From Uncle forever. Napoleon and Illya were the best in any situation.

Thank you, I enjoyed this
love them, have the old DVD
David McCallum had the most beautiful blue eyes! I loved watching Robert Vaughn in Hustle, he was still cooler than everyone else decades later.
3:31 Daniel J. Travanti, later Frank Furillo in Hill Street Blues, I think.
James Toupin...
Yep. Your correct it was Travanti.
In some of his early TV shows, he spelled his last name Travanty.
