im currently watching some old VHS tapes of the series still good after all these years hard to believe it was made in 1964.

Similar in production style to the 'Thunderbirds' series which were made around about the same time. These hold up very well after over 40 years!

Yes, similar wooden acting in both. Now 'Get Smart', there was a series.

The acting in Thunderbirds was much better.

Btw, what did UNCLE stand for?

United
Nations
Criminal
Law
Enforcement

!confused!

IMDB says 'United Network Command for Law Enforcement' but I thought it was Nations, not Network.

Brains:'How did you get this part?'

It should then be know as; UNCFLE.

Its usual to leave prepositions (such as 'for') out of acronyms.
