The New Avengers
Overview
The New Avengers is a British secret agent fantasy adventure television series broadcast during 1976 and 1977.

A joint United Kingdom-France-Canada production, the show picks up the adventures of John Steed and his team of Avengers fighting evil plots and world domination.

This production, originally released in 1976, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Drama, Action & Adventure genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 7.0 across its 2 seasons.
