It's the original OSS that I give five stars to. The dubbed-over version: three.

Operation Spoilsport (the original) is, in my opinion, the greatest episode of the series. Excellent story, performances by everyone ( Especially Robert Culp), Music (Eve of Destruction), action, humor, & suspence.

Well-put, misterh.
Going many years without watching GAH, this was one of the two episodes that really impacted my memory all that time. I remember watching it for the very first time, not knowing the song "Eve of Destruction," my heart pounding, I was holding my breath... all this before computers really got to be a household item (I'd used terminals at school by then at least), and knowing Bill was calling Da Man to him by keying in his information and looking this guy up. When the black ops helicopter shows up and Ralph sees it, and frantically tries to get to Bill, only to get there too late, it's all very nerve-racking. EoD is most definitely required in this episode to get that feeling for anyone watching for the first time.
