I just finished watching all of these again because I love the genre.
They all have so much in common- smarmy, smug heroes, groovy soundtracks, bad guys who sit around conference tables, gadgets, double agent hotties, and sexually frustrated secretaries. But only one can win this poll.
So who will it be: Mr. Atari? Bryan Cooper? Neil Connery? Bart Fargo? Johnny Paul? Adam Chance? Diabolik?
I know someone will point out (phantom) that "Diabolik" isn't really a "spy movie" since he's just a criminal and a thief. But it has the elements of the spy movie genre, and it's my poll, so I'm including it.

Oh geez, now we're going to get back into the debate that Diabolik isn't really a spy movie (which it isn't). I'll have to rewatch some of these before I vote, but my inclination is Danger Death Ray.

I'm pretty sure no one else agrees, but Secret Agent Super Dragon is my favorite.

Oh, Agent for HARM I guess. I love the host segs, nothing to do with the movie but I like that also.

I've seen all of these cept Danger Death Ray and Super Dragon.
The remaining five are all eps that I enjoyed for one reason or another... but I also voted for H.A.R.M.. I just think it's the strongest episode overall. Ask me again tomorrow and I could just as easily pick Mighty Jack or Diamond Head.
Also, I don't think either Diabolik or Mighty Jack would technically be "spy movies". (If I remember correctly, Mighty Jack is more "GI Joe vs Cobra" then it is James Bond). Still, they both share enough of the same characteristics with the rest of the list that they hardly seem out of place.

For the record, I picked Danger Death Ray! I love the music.
However, I like all of these eps. For me, only Diamond Head is hard to sit through.
And it's my poll, so Mighty Jack and Diabolik fit. Because I say they fit.

Good point. Mighty Jack is not a spy movie. But 205 - Rocket Attack USA is.

Double 007
It's tied with HARM as far as laughs go, but it has more chicks so....the film has an edge fun factor wise.
Sorry blurry and blurratso.....Super Dragon is a fairly week ep.

What about Fu Manchu? I think that's kind of a spy movie. I mean, it's got the hero with the weird name I can't recall, and all types of sneaking around. P.S. This is officially my 100th post. Do I get to move up a level now please?
