★★★★★ · The Persuaders is British TV Gold! · Bela Cat Ghostly · 2026-04-14
How why this show didn't make it on US TV is absurd. It was big hit in UK but a 2nd season was not made. The first season is great from pilot episode to end. Not a bad show in all. It has Roger Moore and Tony Curtis who made a terrific team. There is action and drama and comedy. Both play their parts brilliantly! The writing directing was great too! I only saw a few episodes as a kid when it aired on ABC late night but it was cancelled in US. I remembered the pilot but not much else. I'm glad to see it on DVD now and here where others can see Moore and Curtis together again!
