I prefer I SPY over UNCLE as well, but I think the draw with UNCLE is the more James Bond type of feel to it. That's not MY draw to it, but is just an observation over all. I remember being a kid and I could not stay up and watch these shows because they were on too late, but when I visited grandma's house, she would let me. I watched UNCLE and thought it was neat, though I don't know why. I watched I SPY and KNEW why I thought it was great. So with I SPY, I think that the reasons to love it are obvious... and UNCLE just sort of has that appeal that you can't explain fully. I know that I would not go out of my way to watch an episode of UNCLE, but would for I SPY.
I never felt the two characters in UNCLE really had the chemistry together that Bill and Bob did (and still do). |
