★★★★★ · Great Cold War Drama · Tim Crow · 2023-04-01
This is a classic cold war war drama, looking at a future atomic crisis and sleeper espionage. Worth watching. "Your eye, where did you lose it?" "I didn't lose it; I know right where it's buried."
★★★★★ · The Great Days of Television · Gray Rider · 2023-12-26
Truly great cast and great story. Back in the days of early television when TV was literate and serious... and our country was concerned about its survival from all enemies. Thanks OTR.
