Taking a wee break from my NCIS rewatchathon, and giving the 1988/89 series of Mission: Impossible a go.
I'm a massive fan of the original 60s series, hate the Tom Cruise movie franchise (as did the original TV cast members) because they A: Miss the point the series as trying to make, and B: Are fucking terrible.
However, this late 80s series (filmed in Australia during the 1988 Writers Guild of America strike, and using recycled/updated scripts from the original) is new to me.
Two episodes in, and it's not very good. I'd have been as well saving my money.
Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.
