Mission: Impossible - 3x09 - The Play

    The mission is to discredit a propaganda minister behind the Iron Curtain.  In order to do this, they use a play that appeals to their sense of the relationship between the UCR.

    It's only just now that I've realized how difficult it is to write a review for an episode of Mission: Impossible.  There are specific sequences that I can point out, and say they did a good or bad job handling them, but most of the fun in watching an episode is seeing how the mission unfolds.  The episodes are so carefully structured, and the audience is just barely given enough information to make the whole thing satisfying.
    To make it simple, this episode is good.  It's not a great one, but it's pretty fun.  It isn't clear how the technology we see introduced early on is going to be used in the episode, and they hold off on it showing up until the last couple minutes.
    I've seen a few episodes that I would put above this, but I'd say this one falls solidly into the upper-middle end of the curve.
