** "The Hula Doll Affair" features two brothers who happen to be rival THRUSH executives in a plot involving the title doll, which has a heat-sensitive explosive inside, and Napoleon impersonating a delegate from THRUSH Central. A recipe for power plays and suspense? It likely would be had it not been in [[SeasonalRot season three]] and scripted by Stanford Sherman, who also did the one with Illya riding a bomb filled with essence of skunk ("The Super-Colossal Affair") and the one with popsicle bombs aimed at Victor Borge ("The Suburbia Affair"). Throw in the executives being played by Jan Murray and Pat Harrington, and their mother [[spoiler: and real THRUSH Central member]] being played by perennial LargeHam Patsy Kelly, and... oh dear.

* {{Woolseyism}}: The Latin American name of the series was translated as ''El agente de CIPOL" (The Agent of CIPOL), being CIPOL the Spanish acronym of " '''C'''omisión '''I'''nternacional '''P'''ara la '''O'''bservancia de la '''L'''ey" (International Council for Law Enforcement).

* CompleteMonster: Season 3's "Five Daughters Affair" two-parter (later released in theaters as ''The Karate Killers'') has [[NebulousEvilOrganization THRUSH]] agent Randolph, whose plot involves releasing seawater-derived gold onto the market in order to create massive profits for THRUSH. His actions include seducing the wife of the doctor who created the method then killing her [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness once he has no more use for her]], gleefully taunting her before murdering her; poisoning the doctor; attempting to [[OffWithHisHead behead]] Illya in an ice-chopping machine; [[WouldHitAGirl smacking around Sandy]]; and shooting an unarmed elderly man [[DisproportionateRetribution just for raising his voice to him]]. These acts, coupled with his general SmugSnake demeanor, cement Randolph as probably the series’s nastiest villain.

* FanPreferredCouple: Despite Napoleon Solo/Illya Kuryakin, naturally.Solo being an infamous ChickMagnet, most fans ship him with Russian partner Illya Kuryakin instead of any GirlOfTheWeek. In fact, the ship predates the "grandfather" of shipping, [[Franchise/StarTrek Kirk/Spock]], by quite a bit and is arguably just as influential on the way fans ship things as it. This continued into [[Film/TheManFromUNCLE2015 the 2015 film]], where more people found themselves shipping Napoleon/Illya over the canon Illya/Gabby.
