Tarzan: The Epic Adventures is a syndicated series that aired for one season.

This version of Tarzan was filmed in the Sun City resort in South Africa, making it one of the few Tarzan productions to actually film on that continent.

The character of Nicholas Rokoff, and the fact that Tarzan is not yet married, set this series in-between the two halves of The Return of Tarzan.

The Agency

overview:
The Agency is a CBS television drama that followed the inner-workings of the CIA. The series was created by Michael Frost Beckner and was executive produced by Michael Frost Beckner, Shaun Cassidy Productions and Radiant Productions in association with Universal Network Television and CBS Productions. It aired from September 27, 2001 until May 17, 2003, lasting two seasons. It featured unprecedented filming from the actual CIA headquarters.

The show was controversial regarding its exploration of current international affairs and its treatment of the ethical conflicts inherent in intelligence work. Beckner's pilot script, written in March 2001, posited a re-invented CIA tasked with a "War on Terror" after Osama Bin Laden's Al Qaeda terrorist organization plots a lethal attack on the west. The pilot was to premiere at CIA Headquarters on September 18, 2001 and set to air on CBS September 21, 2001, however, the actual 9/11 attacks convinced the network to hold the pilot and instead air a later episode. That first episode was aired later as the third episode of the first season.

The September 11, 2001 terrorist events changed the way Americans viewed topical entertainment and "The Agency", at the time, was one of the most topical offering on network television. The producers of the series quickly responded to this new American perspective on world affairs, but CBS chose to cancel the show shortly after the second season's final episode.

biography:
Né le 4 février 1949 à Memphis, dans le Tennessee, Michael Beck grandit avec le sport comme première passion, décrochant une bourse de football américain au Millsaps College, dont il sort diplômé en économie. C'est pourtant vers les planches qu'il se tourne, intégrant le monde du théâtre avant de basculer vers le cinéma et la télévision.

Sa carrière prend un tournant décisif en 1979 lorsque Walter Hill lui confie le rôle de Swan dans Les Guerriers de la nuit, thriller urbain culte qui fait sensation aux États-Unis et lui ouvre grand les portes d'Hollywood. Mais la suite se révèle plus chaotique qu'espéré. Xanadu (1980), comédie musicale kitsch aux côtés d'Olivia Newton-John, puis Megaforce (1982), film de science-fiction très mal reçu, freinent net une trajectoire prometteuse. Beck le résumera lui-même avec lucidité : Les Guerriers de la nuit lui a ouvert des portes que Xanadu a refermées.

Il se tourne alors vers la télévision, multipliant les téléfilms et les séries tout au long des années 1980 et 1990, dont la mini-série Holocauste (1978) avec Meryl Streep, ou encore la série policière Houston Knights. Aujourd'hui retiré du métier, il reste un visage chéri des amateurs du cinéma de genre.

But there is one man who remembers …Bob Lindenmayer, and he’s on a quest to convince the rest of the world just how awesome this stunt-filled spectacle is.  As Bob delves into the movie’s history with cast and crew, he drags his childhood hero Barry Bostwick into his mission to relive the past. It’s a touching and hilarious tribute to the power of heroes, friendship, and flying motorcycles.
