RIP Robert Loggia who was one of my favorite actors. Great Show, as I was devastated when this show was canceled. The dialogue in this show was superb, and the actors and the guest stars, especially Robert Duvall (Crossing at Destino Bay), Diana Muldaur(in this episode) and Sorrel Booke (First episode: To Kill a Priest) were outstanding. My parents were horrified how attached I was to this series at 8-9 years of age, but to me T.H.E. Cat was the coolest guy on TV at the time.

Then there was the fact that the characters last name was like mine! So that made it all the more intriguing to me and friends. I was also watching The Prisoner, with Patrick Magohan, and programs like The Avengers, and The Man From U.N.C.L.E! The 60's had some great shows in those days.

My favorite show of the 1966 season, which followed "The Man From Uncle" at 9:30 PM on Friday night starting on September 16, 1966. I also recall that the advertisement for the show that was played quite a bit during the summer of 1966, used the confrontation around 21:00 to 21:11 as a major portion of the ad. Unfortunately, I could not get any of my friends to like the show. But I liked it for some reason.

Unfortunately that's not going to happen as Paramount junked the film negatives back in the late 1970s. From what I can gather all that remains of this series are two very worn 16mm telecine prints that a TV station forgot the return to Paramount decades ago and were found during a clearout in 2005. If that's all there really is then unless Paramount are prepared to pour a lot of money into digitally remastering those prints, which seems unlikely, then they will probably never be seen by the public again.

I barely remember anything about this series--of which I think I saw very little--but the one thing I remember is how much I liked Loggia in the role. I was a young teenager then, and I thought he was so cool! I do wonder, seeing this right after watching the pilot episode: How many episodes were of such strained similarity? This one and the pilot were both about a man marked for death with a quite specific time left in which to live. And in both, the man responsible for the murder-to-be is known, and Cat goes to visit both of them, with the same kind of "read between the lines" dialogue taking place. Regardless, thanks for the posting. Great to see T.H.E. Cat in action again.

This was the Golden Age of prime time television. This was a cool show, as the "secret agent" formula was "in" with the success of James Bond, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., and The Avengers. We also had Get Smart as a spoof, and Mission Impossible. Writing and acting were good, and America and the world were entertained. Somehow this lost out to brainless sitcoms, reality shows and endless politically correct propaganda on television. Writers got lazy, and that's where we are today. I threw the newspaper for a year to buy a portable black and white TV to watch these great shows. I can't get through a prime time show these days. That's an indicator as to our present state. Good thing we now have KZitem....and a lot of good books. Too bad the originals of this show have been destroyed.

Unfortunately, it appears that the only two episodes that survive are the two here on KZitem. From IMDb: "As of December 2020 the film negatives for this series no longer exist. They were last recorded as being in the Paramount film and television archives in the mid 1970s but it is thought they were either deliberately or accidentally destroyed in a purge to free up storage space for more recent shows in the late 1970s. The only remnants left of the show (like those on KZitem) are from a couple of very worn telecine prints that were discovered in the vault of a local television station in the early 2000s."
