Dum! Dum! Dah! Dah! Dum! Dum! Duh! Duh! Dum! Dum!
Go on. If you try hard enough you can get the opening phrase of Lalo Schifrin’s iconic theme from that line. I was little more than a pup when I first heard it. I was just nine years old when it started on the TV in 1966 and I was enthralled by the gadgets, the twists of the plot, and the very concept of a secretive agency working behind the scenes. It was, in essence, a series of heist films presented as a weekly telly programme.

However, the objects of the heists was different each week; a list of code names, the formula for a deadly virus or the antidote, the plans for a new weapon, all manner of things. The resolution of the heists invariably involved using exceptionally clever masks, teeny tiny cameras and microphones, expertly forged papers, and all manner of clever devices normally only seen in a James Bond film.
Yes, it was fascinating, yes, it was entertaining, and, yes, it is still going strong! On a much bigger screen now than when I was a youngster but that’s to make room for the increasingly more spectacular and more nail biting stunts! The latest in the long list of film outings has gone the way of many before it and split the story into two parts. The first part is out this summer and the second is scheduled for next year. So lets’s take a look at what’s gone before.
TV Series
1966 – 1973 Mission: Impossible
1988 – 1990 Mission: Impossible
Films
1967 – Mission: Impossible vs The Mob

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
