Although by 1972 the "Secret-Agent" Fad was about Ready to Fade, but a Few Stragglers were Offered Die-Hard "Bond" Fans, even though They Had Run the Gamut on the Big and Little Screen, with the Likes of...
"Our Man Flint", "Matt Helm", "Secret Agent Man", "The Man From U. N. C. L. E", "The Avengers", The Girl From U. N. C. L. E., "Get Smart", "The Prisoner", and Others.
This is Wildly Watchable as Bette Davis is Out to Conquer the World and Fry a Few Brains On the Way, with Agent Robert Wagner Trying to Keep His Head on "Straight".
It's a Lively Affair with Lurid Mad-Labs Full of Brain-Probing Experiments and Sonic Weapons with an Electronic Soundtrack Underneath and a Surprisingly Down-Beat Ending.
It Manages to Retain just the Right Amount of the Overtones of a Cracker-Jack, World-Domination Espionage Flick, Sprinkled with the Absurd that Keeps thing Frisky.
If Failing to Snatch a "Polaris Sub" Doesn't Work Out, Next on Her "Bucket-List" is "Buckingham Palace" and The Crown Jewels".
That could have Filled "Season One", but No One was Buying at this Late Date and the "Spy" Genre Continued to Fade Into "Yesterday's News"
But this is Produced Snazzy Enough and with Davis, Walker, a Good Supporting Cast, some Psychedelica, and Groovy Sounds, it was a Good Try, and...
Worth a Watch.
