Do you know of a place with almost 2,000 DVDs of almost every movie and TV show worth seeing or knowing about? Blockbuster? Video Warehouse? Try Robin Robinson's den. Yep, she rocks. She knows all things TV and is especially fond of The Avengers. I was lucky enough to sneak in a very short interview with this very busy lady (She's a cop by night, and usually asleep at the time of this interview; do excuse the brevity but she can't protect the city if she's asleep on the job can she?). Let's talk about John Steed and his famous bowler and brolly. Enjoy!
Me: What first drew you to The Avengers?
RR: I have always been intrigued with spy shows.
Me: Do you have a favorite character and why are they your favorite?
RR: Emma Peel; She's smart, strong, independent, with a kick-ass attitude.
Me: What makes Steed so great?
RR: He's just so darn smart and sharp.
Me: Did you see the feature film? Did you like it?
RR: Yes; It did have some of the old school feel with a modern touch.
Me: What is the most iconic part of the show to you?
RR: How well the two main characters worked together.
Below is a most iconic episode of this funny spy classic:
