This thirty-minute spy adventure featured Steve Mitchell, and investigator of crimes in exotic locations. 60 episodes. The opening was the same every week “Yeah, danger is my assignment. I get sent to a lot of places I can’t even pronounce. They all spell the same thing though, trouble.” He would be summoned to his boss’s office where he would be given his assignment; he would then fly halfway across the globe to save the day!
