Austin Powers
U.N.C.L.E.
I Spy
Charlies Angels
The Kids Next Door
The Scarlet Pimpernel
etc

The Kids Next Door suck.

And you forgot Batman.

Isn't the Secret agent and the prisoner the same person?

No, they are two completely different shows which just happen to have Patrick McGoohan in. Secret Agent Man (known as Dangerman in the US) was made after The Prisoner, arguably the best and most fucked up (bar NGE) cult sci-fi series ever.

They were both spies, but all we knew of Number 6 was that he resigned from a London office and was promptly take away...

Amazing, that's on at 1630 today at my animé and manga club. Thanks for reminding me, I knew I had something to do today other than sleep and a bit of work. :P

Yeah, the Lupin III films are like an animated James Bond.

Shhhhh! I know that, but he reminds me of Spike Spiegel and is just damn cool. Thief or not, he'd make a smashing secret agent. :)

Lupin! He's like a rougish, stealing James Bond, only he doesn't have a bunch of high-tech gadgets to save his ass.

Love the avatar treder
I love Danger Mouse when I was a kid, that show kicked serious ass.
James Bond is the best. Austin Powers is good simply because he's a Bond parody.

I'd say James Bond. But, he has to contribute some of his sucess to high-tech gadgets, and villians that give away thier plans. Still, when you've been foiling evil plots for 40 years and don't get your hair messed up, it says something about you.
