U.N.C.L.E. was a fictitious secret international espionage and law-enforcement agency and was an acronym for United Network Command for Law and Enforcement.
Duh! I knew that; I really did. Just wasn't thinking. Thanks for the correction.

LMAO, and I agree! I hadn't seen Here Come the Brides since I was 12 or so, and was just kind of stunned at how bad the writing was. Although this scene tugged at my heartstrings (probably from swooning over David Soul). The good stuff starts about a minute in:


Here Come the Brides - A Christmas Place (Part Six of Six) - YouTube
I'm a guy, so pardon me if I don't swoon over Starsky, or Hutch, whichever one he was, but okay, I'll agree that this scene does sort of get ya right there. Still one really bad show, though.

Pawporri, I wasn't necessarily referring to My Mother the Car in particular (about shows so lousy they never got enough original air time or subsequent rerun time to be remembered), but the shoe definitely fits. Actually, I do remember a funny scene from Mother. When Jerry Van Dyke puts anti-freeze in his mother, then gets arrested for DWI when he tries to drive her, and SHE is drunk and weaving all over the road.

Occasionally other stars would come in one shot roles; Sue Ann Langdon, George Kennedy, Claudine Longet (believe it or not), and several others.
Loved that show as a kid!

Oh, I remember, My Mother the Car very well! That was on about an hour or so after Topper. Maybe 2 hours. I think Gale Storm was in between them.
What about Clutch Cargo?
