In 1969, during the acceptance speech for her third consecutive Emmy for Mission: Impossible, Barbara Bain announced that she was leaving the series. She did so because her husband, Martin Landau, also left the series at the same time over a pay dispute. Landau had never had more than one-year contracts, however, and was free to leave at the end of that series' third season. Bain, however, had signed a standard five-year contract.
