Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Nineteen actors have portrayed Simon Templar, the gentleman adventurer created by Leslie Charteris in 1928. Among the most memorable incarnations were George Sanders (in a series of 1930s films) and Vincent Price (who voiced the character on radio in the 1940s). But for baby boomers, there is only one Simon: Roger Moore, who starred in this classic 1960s British TV series. Moore makes a better Templar than he did a Bond (and he is certainly better than Val Kilmer, who stared in the 1997 feature film), and the inside jokes include guest appearances by Lois Maxwell, best known to 007 fans as Miss Moneypenny. Except for the gadgets, The Saint has all the pleasures of the Bond films: a real international man of mystery impeccably dressed (these entertaining adventures are "more cloak than dagger"), exotic locations, cold war intrigue, sparkling bons mots, and beautiful (albeit chaste) women, and the highlight of any episode is the devilishly funny prologue, in which, no matter where he is, someone always identifies our hero as "the infamous" Simon Templar, prompting him to cast his eyes heavenward as he is crowned by his signature animated halo. This 14-disc set includes all 47 original color episodes presented in their U.S. broadcast order. --Donald Liebenson

In Days of Yore the original Knights Templar rode White chargers, to rescue Ladies in distress.
But this 1960's incarnation was called Simon Templar and drove instead, a White sports car. (Volvo P1800)
Most of the stories are thriller based, and not as surreal as The Avengers, or The Prisoner.
But that should not put people off what is shown, as Roger Moore does it so smoothly, and with such charm that you can't help but like the character.
Looking on the, "family friendly" ... Read More

This was the first time I had bought used DVDs. I have been very pleased thus far. There are many DVDs in the package, so obviously we haven't seen them all yet, but all the ones we've seen have worked just like advertised - the DVDs look good (physically), the individual boxes look good, the full package was just as advertised, AND we got a very good deal.

OK this is not the 70's or 80's anymore so can we please give Roger Moore a break about not being the best Bond? God, I come here for the Saint and the Amazon reviewer slams him for his Bond! As a matter of fact if Moore had not played Bond so good the franchise would have died in the 70's! He made the character entertaining and I remember as a teen seeing Moonraker in the movies and than later as an adult seeing other people play Bond and I got to tell you I was more entertained when I saw Moore, so ...

And so these words open each episode of this popular series. Leslie Charteris', "The Saint" was a role well-suited to Roger Moore's athleticism, good looks, and whimsical sense of humor that would eventually serve him well as none other than Ian Fleming's cold war icon, James Bond, for over ten years.
This A&E set contains all the color episodes in their original broadcast order and the transfers look quite clean; however if you have a multi-region DVD player like I do, I recommend the ... Read More

The original B&W set were based on the Charteris stories and it shows. The colour series loses some of the charm of the 1st series. However the restored versions here and the colour are superb and the humour is always dry! A good buy.
