Somehow, dispite the simple plots, visible wires, casual sexism, cultural stereotyping and 'interesting' fashions that make this clearly of its time, it remains very entertaining. The bad guys are very much the kind of obvious bad guys of 70s US tv which adds to the nostalgic charm. David McCallum puts in a playful portrayal in the title role. Melinda Fee, as his wife, manages not to be a hapless sidekick. If you enjoy watching half-rememembered sci-fi shows from your childhood like I do, this is very much worth it. It's not intellectually or emotionally challenging to watch, and is great for easy viewing, a little giggle at the 70s and the silly science. No cgi invisibility effects here, and it was not intended for HDTV. Don't expect more than it is, and you won't be disappointed. Gets 3 stars because it's not a *good* tv show, but it would get 4.5 rated on how much I've enjoyed rewatching it.
