I'm trying to find the name of an old TV series.

I'm pretty sure it's from the 80's. I might've seen it in the very early 90's, I can't remember exactly, but no later than 91'. well for all I know, it could even be a 70's show that kept on running years later, but most chances are we're talking 80's series.

It was about 3 guys with secret powers. I think 2 men and a woman. They were able to see things far ahead or hear things from long distance, and they were able to communicate between themselves through telepathy.

It was an action-adventure type of series and they kind've used their special abilities to fight the bad guys. Each episode had a different storyline, I think they were 45 minutes long.

One episode I remember took place in the mountains. They were hostages being led at gunpoint through the mountains. Something like that anyway.

That's all I remember now.

Who's got a name for me?

Nope, it was definitely a group. 3 guys, maybe even 4.

Far far from it.

It was not a kids' show btw.

It was more like "Mission Impossible" type of series.

Fame, sorry, I can't help you. However, my daughter just found out that the young lady who played Pink Power Ranger is now on the Canadian cop show "Flashpoint".

Maybe Misfits of Science or Automan in the 80s.

The lost is FOUND!! cool

It's a british show called "The Champions".

You guys are not gonna believe this...it's not an 80's show, not even 70's, it's from 1968-1969! I was so wrong there but yeah, good old reruns.

I was mostly right about the other details. 2 men 1 woman, special powers, telepathy, 50 minutes long, and from reading the plotlines I'm pretty sure the episode I mentioned is called "The Survivors".

Thank you guys for trying to help. I just decided to google once again and try a few more combinations. What finally did the trick was the following:

"3 special powers agents tv series"

The very first google result was the wiki page for "The Champions".

Can't wait to rewatch some episodes. I'll let you guys know if it's as good as I remember.
