How it feels

A team of five spies tries to kill Adolf Hitler in a wildly anachronistic and surreal version of World War II. The second season jumps to 1982 with Hitler still alive and causing trouble.

What happens

Danger 5 is an Australian action surreal comedy television series which premiered on SBS One on 27 February 2012. The men's-adventure-magazine-inspired series was created by Dario Russo and David Ashby. The first series is set in a bizarre, campy, 1960s interpretation of World War II and follows a group of five international spies on a mission to kill Adolf Hitler and thwart his plans of world domination. The second series is set in a similarly bizarre interpretation of 1982, with Hitler again the villain after somehow surviving the end of the war. The second series began airing on SBS 2 on 4 January 2015. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
