[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 3491613, member: 6592"] Actually, the original [I]Danger Man[/I] series (30 minute episodes with a different theme) were broadcast in America under the original title by CBS as a summer replacement in 1961. When the series was renewed after a two-year hiatus, the length was extended to 60 minutes (to compete with contemporary spy shows such as [I]The Man From U.N.C.L.E.[/I] and [I]The Avengers[/I],) CBS decided to rename the show here in the U.S. as [I]Secret Agent[/I]. They substituted Johnny Rivers' song [I]Secret Agent Man[/I] as the theme, though the original theme [I]High Wire[/I] could be heard at the beginning of the episode after the first commercial break.
