Forgot How Cool They Were

I have the Pluto TV channel which is Free. They have programs under the category of Classic TV. I'm watching the old TV series "Mission Impossible". I forgot how cool they were. It was a team of all guys and one lady. Was never sure why the casting people decided on only one lady. Later on as the series progressed they added more women characters. Anyway! The episode I watched today I'm very upset about. The MI team deliberately released some infectious insects into a room to bite a guy and make him sick. That just hit too close to home with this COVID-19 pandemic. Considering that we still don't know the origin of this virus. First they say it came from a lab. Now they're saying it jumped from animal to human. I suppose it's clear enough that it doesn't come from a mosquito bite. But still! The episode upset me. Still! The MI Team were a really cool bunch! I'm not surprised that years later they made Mission Impossible movies with that same great theme music!
