Danger Man - Name, Date and Place television review

Our Throwback Tuesday post takes us back into the Cold War spycraft of Danger Man. With the assassination of the Italian Minister, Drake (Patrick McGoohan) comes to the conclusion that there is an underground murder network taking out high valued targets for the right price. All seven of the victims have been shot in the back but otherwise there is no connection between the killings as the victims have all have various national and political ties.

Hawaii Five-0 - Ho'opio 'ia e ka noho ali'i a ka ua TV review
