Mission Impossible: season 1 on DVD

Postby jeffbert » 18 years ago

After a year or so of wondering why, after the two motion pictures, they had not released this series on DVD, S1 is finally here! :lol:

I just received disc 1 from Blockbuster online, & am going to watch it tonight. :D

The guy facing left beneath Greg Morris is the Pilot's "Mr. Briggs," the team's leader prior to Peter Graves, & the instructions were on an LP, rather than a reel-to-reel tape. But I have only watched the first 2 minutes so far. :)

I have finished watching this set, & with a few exceptions, I found the stories to be fairly believable. There were a few, though, that required a leap of faith.

One had Rollin disguise a (Soviet) Vice Premier as another man so he could enter the court room safely. C. O'Conner's character had ordered him assassinated. However, once the guy removed his mask, they should be thinking that there might have been a similar tactic involved in the case itself (It is too complicated to explain here, but Rollin established an alibi by disguising Briggs as Rollin).

There was at least one other one that seemed too far-fetched to believe. It involved tricking the passengers on a train into thinking the train was moving, while it was really in a warehouse. Lupin III used a similar trick in 1 episode. :lol:

Anyway, S2 will be released in June, & I will watch that, too. :w00t:
