Very repetitive, so luckily the episodes are fairly short, although it means that the repetitive stuff is, erm, repeated quicker.

I was getting bored with the endless "I'm the real Donnie Brasco but I've got stories to tell...." at the start of EVERY one of the 50 episodes.

Interesting stories, average re-enactments, repetition forever!

It was obviously shorter sections slipped together to make each episode and you start the next section with the undercover agents name over & over again. Yes I KNOW HIS NAME JUST GET ON WITH IT hahahaha

Worth a watch once.

Only once.

The undercover agents do risk a lot, so fair play to them for taking down various bad guys/companies/gangs etc.

I was 4 when this came out & every single time my Mum took me to see it, I had weeks of nightmares thanks to the superb acting/appearance of The Child Catcher (brilliantly done by Robert Helpmann).

I now realise that the only reason I was taken to see it so many times was solely because my Mum was really into ballet & Mr. Helpmann was pretty good at that, apparently!

I can now appreciate how greatly evil the Child Catcher was (and still is), although in the way the world is nowadays, he would probably not be allowed to portray such a character tempting kids with sweets to kidnap them!

The whole film is a lovely family adventure and I still grab it off my DVD shelves to watch & get taken back to the late 60s, but now without the nightmares and screaming hahahaha.
