Mission Impossible: The Sixth TV Season

By its Sixth Season Mission Impossible was down to three of its original members and one newcomer. Barbara Bain, Martin Landau and Leonard Nimoy had all come and gone. Veteran members Greg Morris, Peter Graves, Peter Lupus and newcomer Lynda Day George as makeup artist Casey rounded out the team.

The Sixth Season also brought about a slight change in the direction of the show. The IMF team focuses on targets outside of traditional law enforcement circles. Stand out episodes include the IMF crashing a top syndicate leaders meetings atop a mountain, searching for a fortune beneath the oceans, infiltrating the music business, faking an island off the shores of Africa, pitting loan sharks against one another on an island and turning a syndicate boss against his cohorts.

Six discs containing 22 episodes from the Sixth Season make up the DVD set from CBS/Paramount. Mission accomplished.
