    Bereamic Awesome Movie
    PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
    AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
    Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
    dobberx The hook was the tech. Tiny cameras, tiny transmitters and dental implants for coded info. A wicked cool "mission control" room. Three known actors in rotation - all with previous film and tv success. Would love to a reboot. Maybe have a more diverse team? How about a team of four? A woman; a young, impulsive guy; a middle-aged, veteran man and.......? They can appear alone or in any combination.
    Roy I agree with the poster James-L. This was an awesome show, some great actors. Burgess Meredith as B. C. Cameron was awesome. I think he was a great actor and was so impressive in this show. There were some very fine actors in this show Hugh O'brian as Hugh Lockwood was the best in this show (aka "Wyatt Earp" another of my fave shows). Doug McClure and Tony Franciosa were awesome as well. This was truly a great great show. And I am so sorry it didn't last. Yes us old timers have seen a lot of TV and movies this show was so great I was so wanting it to make it at the time. The Man From UNCLE, I Spy, The Avengers, THE Cat, were all great TV spy and action shows. Search was so great with all the "cool tools" and great spy stuff.Maybe someday someone will create a new revised "Probe". But alas it was one of many fine shows that didn't last because of network popularity. There were many great lineups on all the 3 major networks then NBC, CBS, and ABC. This show is in my top ten list and besides "Star Trek" is my very all time favorite.
    DeweyQ This was one of the great shows that didn't last.The teamwork shown by the group working behind the scenes was perhaps too "upbeat" for people. You didn't watch the show expecting the good guys to fail, but instead tried to guess which specialist or gadget would get them out of a jam this time.I don't remember how good the writing and dialog was, but I clearly remember Burgess Meredith's character as a very compelling influence in the "control room". I would love this show to return to the air or come out on DVD, but I suppose it has been gone for so long that any chance of that happening is pretty low.In any case, it is good to see the show immortalized to some extent by being listed properly here (I searched for "Search" a long time ago and couldn't find it).
    JamesL-4 "Search" is a series that failed to find its audience mainly because most of that audience was already in bed (time slot 9 or 10 PM on a school night; it was the first series I got to stay up late for!). It's also a series that could not have existed before the world watched Neil Armstrong set foot on the Moon, since the concept of a room full of specialists monitoring and assisting the agent is, of course, based on the room full of specialists in Houston who monitor and assist our astronauts.Note that Bob Justman (of Star Trek fame) was involved; undoubtedly it was because of Star Trek's influence that the aforementioned room full of specialists included African-Americans, Asian-Americans and women.All in all, it's a shame it didn't catch on, but then again, most of the audience had to be in bed early on school nights. Incidentally, the pilot film used to show up on local stations every year or so, though not for quite a few years.
