synopsis
Double Agent stars Michael McKean in a dual role as the Starbinder twins. One twin is a cool, nerveless secret agent; the other (the one with glasses) is a mild-mannered veterinarian and family man. It must needs be that the spy twin is incapacitated, forcing the veterinarian twin to take his place on a dangerous mission. Lloyd Bochner costars as "Secret Agent Vaughn"--a cute reference to Man From UNCLE star Robert Vaughn. Double Agent was first telecast March 29, 1987, on the Disney Sunday Movie series.
