Review
Jim Phelps is the head of a secret government operative. His job is to oversee a team of experts who go out into the field to stop evil
plots designed to cause chaos and havoc in our world. Each episode opens with Jim receiving a self-destructing message about a sinister
evil doer that must be stopped at all costs. As soon as the message self-destructs, Jim’s back in his off selecting a group of
operatives best suited for the case. Rarely does the team differ as Jim seems to like with the same group of people—they’re reliable,
efficient, smart, and seem to have no problem working as a team or taking orders from each other. Occasionally, Jim brings in someone
different or adds another party to the team, but only when he believes it will improve the team’s chances of success.
Once everyone arrives, he debriefs the team and together they begin plotting their next move and that’s where the real excitement
begins. Each episode offers something different. There’s new costumes, new identities, new gadgets, and new villains to concure.
Rollin Hand is the team’s master of disguise and does a great job altering both appearance and voice. Cinnamon Carter is the only female
on the team and does a great job of using her femininity to charm and trick. She also reminds the world that beautiful women do come
with brains. Barney Collier is the gadget guy and seems to always have the answer to their problems. And then there’s Willy Armitage,
the team’s strongman.
If you’ve watched Mission Impossible
staring Tom Cruise and expect to see a lot of high-packed action, you’re in for a real disappointment. The original series used more
brains than explosives. The original series, in my opinion, is far superior to the movie versions—even if it was created decades
ago! The series doesn’t rely on gimmicks to “wow” the audience. It relies on acting, drama, suspense, and mystery. The series also does
not “feed” the audience. In other words, you’ve got to think about what’s going on in order to figure out why certain plots were devised
and how it all works together.
Your Task
Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to watch the series with your kids and then discuss why the team was so successful in each
of their missions. It’s a great opportunity to discuss the importance of teamwork. It’s also a great time to help your kids decipher
their peer’s true intentions. In other words, when is a peer being supportive and looking out for your best interests and when is a peer
steering you in the wrong direction, thus causing you to get into trouble?
