Seriously?) while remembering the 007-inspired TV shows of the decade, including "Get Smart," "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.," "I Spy" and "The Wild Wild West' (among others). Also in this episode: Buck Henry invents the Cone of Silence, Lucille Ball greenlights "Mission: Impossible," Tony Randall tangles with Herbert Lom and Adam West turns down a license to kill. PLUS: "The Satan Bug"! Robert Goulet: Nazi hunter! Remembering Jessica Walter! Ian Fleming influences the CIA! And the boys name their favorite Bond themes! Learn more about your ad choices.
