Secret Agent Man (TV series)

Secret Agent Man (TV series)

:"This article is about a 2000s TV series and shouldn't be confused with the 1960s series Danger Man, which aired in the United States under the title Secret Agent."

"Secret Agent Man" was a short-lived spy-fi television series that aired on UPN in 2000.

The series, created by writer Richard Regen, starred Costas Mandylor as "Monk", a gallivanting secret agent, who was one of a team of agents that included "Holliday", played by Dina Meyer and "Davis", played by Dondre Whitfield. The team reported to "Brubeck", played by Paul Guilfoyle. The series followed their missions.

All the lead characters share the last names of jazz musicians Thelonious Monk, Billie Holliday, Miles Davis, and Dave Brubeck.

The series used an updated version of the 1960s hit song "Secret Agent Man" for its theme song. Because the original version of this song was also used as the theme song for American broadcasts of another television series, the 1960s British TV series, "Danger Man", there were some mistaken impressions that this series was somehow a spin off or remake of the earlier program, but other than the theme song, no connection were made evident.

Only 12 episodes were broadcast before the series was cancelled.
