best action tv shows

[ARIES666]

The line get's blurry between action/cop/private eye/drama series...however I will give this a go...

The Avengers (Honour Blackman & Diana Rigg...Mmmmmm!!)
Secret Agent/Danger Man
The Saint
The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
Honey West (Anne Francis...Mmmmmmm!!)
Batman
The A-Team
Starsky and Hutch
Charlie's Angels (I loved Sabrina!!)
Mission Impossible
Moonlighting

i like 24 series...

[violet lightning]

It crosses into so many genres as Aries pointed out.
I'll try and stay within shows that had or have lots of action...

1. I Spy
2. The Man from UNCLE
3. Mission: Impossible
4. Kung Fu
5. The Streets of San Francisco (great car chases!)
6. Baretta
7. Starsky and Hutch
8. Charlies Angels (Sabrina was great, remember her from "The Rookies", in that little nurses uniform?!)
9. Magnum PI
10. Sons of Anarchy
11. Deadwood.......

"24" is definitely an action show. For some reason I never started watching it.
As for Hogans Heros, John Banner (the guy who played "Sgt Schultz") escaped from Nazi Germany before the war I believe. Ironic that he would end up playing lovable Schultz, the role he is best remembered for.

Violet...I was thinking of adding these as well...but they would make my Favorite Cop Show List!!

How about a "Guitly Pleasure" thread as well? I would put C.H.I.P.S. on it...it was an action series, but it was pretty bad...but I watched it!!

To me it's just splitting hairs after all most cop shows are action shows well all except C.H.I.P.S which was kinda feel good show with very little action, Perhaps westerns should have there own best of but i didn't think there was a lot of western fans here so i just added a few to my action list Jennifer
