Illya Kuryakin….still remember that name withou having to look it up. Can’t remember the crime show that starred Bill Cosby, but I would know it from a list…just not off the top of my head.
If you were actually there at the time, you’ll remember that Napoleon Solo was supposed to be the hero, and Ilya Kuryakin was supposed to be his techno-gofer. But teenage girls went ga-ga over David McCallum and his Beatle haircut (yes, I know it wasn’t really, but people thought so in 1964), and it quickly became a partners show.

I’d go for Leo G. Carroll! There was just something suave and sophisticated about him, and of course, I remember him from Topper…
