The Avengers: Season 06
Theatrical Release Information | See Details About All Versions
The Avengers' sixth season marks the first anniversary of the series' switchover from black-and-white to color -- and alas, the swan song for Diana Rigg in her signature role as leather-clad, demurely sexy martial-arts expert and amateur secret agent Mrs. Emma Peel. Fortunately, Rigg's co-star, Patrick Macnee, would remain in the role of soft-spoken, bowler-hatted, eminently resourceful professional spy John Steed until the series' final episode two years later. Although the budgets have been lowered on this season's abbreviated manifest of eight episodes, the series' action content and tongue-in-cheek scriptwork are still of the highest calibre. Highlights of The Avengers' sixth season include "Return of the Cybernauts," "You Have Just Been Murdered," "Murdersville," and the season finale, "Mission: Highly Improbable." ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
