The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.: Difference between revisions

''The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.'' was an American spy drama which ran one season (1966-67) on [[NBC]], as the [[Distaff Counterpart]] to ''[[The Man From UNCLE (TV)|The Man From UNCLE]]''. It received a [[Poorly -Disguised Pilot]] in the second season ''[[The Man From UNCLE]]'' episode "The Moonglow Affair", which featured Mary Ann Mobley as April Dancer, and Norman Fell as her partner Mark Slate. When the series was actually put into production, the leads were recast; Stefanie Powers played American U.N.C.L.E. enforcement agent April Dancer and Noel Harrison backed her up as British partner Mark Slate. ''[[The Man From UNCLE (TV)|The Man From UNCLE]]'' veteran Leo G. Carroll reprised his role as U.N.C.L.E. Chief Alexander Waverly (one of the first times, if not the first, that an actor played a major role as the same character in two separate shows). Nowhere near as successful as ''[[The Man From UNCLE (TV)|The Man From UNCLE]]'', the show was canceled for low ratings at the end of its first season.

* [[Required Spinoff Crossover]] (Mr. Waverly in a regular role in both series; Napoleon Solo in a one-episode appearance ("The Mother Muffin Affair"); while ''The Girl''s sidekick, Mark Slate, crossed over into the third season ''[[The Man From UNCLE (TV)|The Man From UNCLE]]'' episode "The Galatea Affair" (this is not counting the series's [[Poorly -Disguised Pilot]], "The Moonglow Affair", which cast different actors in the roles of April Dancer and Mark Slate)).
