The one hundred and sixty-ninth TV show: #115 Mission Impossible

I won't deny that there's some pull in the spy fiction genre that Mission Impossible moves in, but I can't say I wanted to watch too much of it. While suggesting they'll have a different group, you know that the intro always has your lead select the same group. The missions are somewhat different, but it all has to go a little bit too well when the occasional set back would have been more interesting. There are some interesting conceits, but it's a show that in the modern day struggles to hold my attention, with a style of storytelling that feels a bit too smooth here. I think it's clear this type of action show is one that hasn't held up in the modern era, but also hasn't appealed to me for a long time anyway.
