    Lord Brett Sinclair and the bronx born Danny Wilde, two millionaires from very different backgrounds, in a season plenty of risky adventures and enjoyable lndscapes of Europe. hide « show »

    What a kind of glamour! What a wonderful casting! Roger Moore and Tony Curtis as Brett Sinclair and Danny Wilde, two different "types" of tycoons playing risky games against professional killers, racketeers or the italian maffia. You will enjoy marvellous landscapes of France, Italy or Spain; fantastic cars and the most beautiful ladies of the early seventies.
    Take a look at the Curtis and Moore´s fashion touch.
    Twenty four episodes of hi class life and adventures. Extremely magic couple. Why did they make only twenty four episodes? It is a good question but I dont have any answer.
    You must enjoy it on DVD.

    Tony Curtis & Roger Moore make a most entertaining team! hide « show »

    When I first heard about the show from a website talking about Roger Moore, I was intrigued. Tony Curtis and Roger Moore in an action adventure comedy? Well, thanks to a friend I eventually watched the series (which unfortunately is one season long). I was very impressed, Curtis and Moore make an unlikely but very hilarious duo. Moore who I guess most people still related to his Saint or Bond characters got to see a more easy going, comedic side. Curtis' Danny Wilde with his wit & improvisation complemented Moore's Lord Sinclair and gave it a North American feel even though the show took place in Western Europe. Several stand out episodes like "The Old, The New & The Deadly" & "The Man in The Middle" demonstrated the laid back, jocular, don't take yourself too seriously mood of the show. A very charming show and one I wish lasted longer but Roger Moore had bigger fish to fry like playing some unknown spy character named "James Bond".

    9.8 Superb

    "Ahead of its time" because it was the true forerunner of Magnum PI. hide « show »

    OK, imagine this: a wise cracking American with quick fists drives around in a big red Ferrari and solves crimes, mysteries, and injustices. Not only that, he engages in constant banter with a well educated, snobbish English aristocrat. And we're introduced to both in the semi tropical climes of the French Riviera. Sound like anybody you might know, Thomas Magnum?

    Of course, the Persuaders is much more than that--as is the excellent Magnum PI. But both series have much, much in common. And with The Persuaders you also have the benefit of Roger Moore transplanting a great deal of the persona he established in The Saint to a fresh new environment--even if many of the sets and locations were taken straight from The Saint.

    Curtis and Moore! A dynamite combination.
