Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nice Theme Song..
Review: "Dummmmm-dum-da-dum-dum.." - the theme song. That's what I remember most about this show; that and Robert Vaughn feeding his dog from the breakfast table in the title credits and Tom Jones singing the song for the closing credits. Each episode is 1/2 hour long and features interesting stories shot in different European locales.

Gerry Anderson produced this show about a 3-person team of detectives and it has the same look and feel as the Saint and the Avengers.

Its better than most of the stuff on TV now.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Stylish 70's ultra-chic European Detective Drama
Review: Being a fan of Robert Vaughn from his Man From UNCLE days, I purchased this set on a whim at Tower Records over three months ago (why does Amazon say it will not be available until November?) and was pleasantly surprised. These half-hour episodes are cleverly written and entertaining. The European locales also add an extra bit of flair to these shows. The acting is good--especially Space 1999 alumnus Tony Anholt. When will the Second season be released?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: First rate
Review: This is one of a series of British television programs that shared the same pool of scriptwriters and directors. This series includes The Avengers, The Saint, Secret Agent Man, and The Persuaders. If you liked any of these you will like The Protectors.

The Protectors is a high-class detective agency that gets involved in international crime and espionage operations. Very much like The Avengers, the woman of the group, Nyree Dawn Porter, is very intelligent, resourceful, and attractive. She was the first choice for replacing Mrs. Peel when Dianna Rigg left The Avengers.
