This is considered by some to be the best tv show opening theme and video in history. Keep in mind that it was done prior to digitization which makes the video/music sequences that much more impressive. BTW, the girl running on the beach and her face shot made many lists as one of the most beautiful women in the world. Sadly, she died in 1988 while in her 50's and she would have been nearly 80 today. Scary how time marches on.

Yes Robbbs, a great show intro.
Have "Man from Uncle" or "Mission Impossible" ever been on re-runs? We loved them back in the day, but they probably come off as hoky doky today.
Mission Impossible had a great theme song too. I have that Craig mini (3 inch) reel-to-reel tape deck that the destroying smoke would come out of after Phelps would get his secret orders. It was a Christmas present and my friends and I had great fun with it. At the time, it was unique for non-professionals to be able to record people and to hear them and yourself speaking. How quaint.
