Kind of lame by today's standards. Plot holes, see threw stunts, but Roger Moore shines and makes a good show. I use to love watching this show on late night re-runs as a young boy. The back up cast for The Saint was great. I always though that's Jame's Bond in training. What worked with The Saint tv series from the 60's was the bizarre and ray out story-lines. Like the games the super villains would play. Like the you have just been murdered episode with the 3 chances, and die or pay extortion episode. I never know what would happen next, but like a good Sherlock Holmes episode we knew The Saint was up to the task. Trickery, deception, and just out right smarts and The Saint would figure out something. 7 stars.

score 7/10
