''Five Fingers'' is an NBC adventure/drama series set in Europe during the Cold War loosely based on the 1952 film ''5 Fingers'', starring James Mason and Danielle Darrieux. It ran from October 3, 1959, to January 9, 1960. David Hedison starred as Victor Sebastian, an American counterintelligence officer with the code name "Five Fingers". Luciana Paluzzi played Simone Genet, Sebastian's singer client and romantic interest. Paul Burke played Robertson, Sebastian's contact man.〔Alex McNeil, ''Total Television'', New York: Penguin Books, Inc., 1996, 4th ed., p. 288〕 ''Five Fingers'' itself was based on the book ''Operation Cicero'' (1950) by L.C. Moyzisch and on the memoirs of Elyesa Bazna (''I Was Cicero'', 1962). Bazna was something of an antihero in real life (as was his counterpart, Ulysses Diello, in the Hollywood film); the television series transformed the character from a World War II-era mercenary Albanian into a Cold War era heroic American. Sebastian posed as a Communist to gain information on party activities. His public cover was that of a theatrical booking agent for clubs and cafes throughout Europe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Five Fingers'':Summary )〕 ==Episodes and guest stars== Episodes and notable guest stars include: *"Station Break" (Eva Gabor and Tyler McVey) - October 3, 1959 *"Dossier" (Edgar Bergen) - October 10, 1959 *"The Moment of Truth" (Nehemiah Persoff and Jack Warden) - October 17, 1959 *"The Unknown Town" (Michael J.
