SEARCH - THE COMPLETE SERIES + PILOT MOVIE (NBC 1972-73) Hugh O'Brian, Doug McClure, Tony Franciosa
Three very different agents, one very out-of-this-world show. Hugh O'Brian, Doug McClure and Tony Franciosa rotate leads as elite high tech espionage operatives for Probe Division of World Securities Corporation in this spy-sensational SF-flavored actioner from Leslie Stevens (creator, The Outer Limits) and Robert Justman (one of the guiding lights for both Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation).
Each agent, dubbed a "Probe", is wired up for worldwide surveillance thanks to their Scanners (miniature video cams) and dental/ ear implants. Tracking their telemetry and giving real-time mission advice is the team of specialists gathered together at Probe Control under the direction of the brilliant, irascible V.C.R. Cameron (Burgess Meredith).
O'Brian plays Lockwood, Probe One, ex-astronaut and lead agent, McClure plays CR Grover, Standby Probe, brilliant beachcomber goofball and Franciosa plays Nick Bianco, Omega Probe, street savvy ex-NYC cop tasked with organized crime capers.
The Probes hunt for stolen moonrocks, missing agents, a deadly Probe division defector and more alongside special guest luminaries the likes of Stefanie Powers, Bill Bixby, Mary Ann Mobley, Sebastian Cabot, Barbara Feldon, Mel Ferrer and Joanna Cameron. Plus, early appearances of Cheryl Ladd as Probe technician Amy Love.
This set also includes the pilot movie "Probe."
