Wine, Women and War was the second of three made-for-TV films broadcast by the ABC network in 1973 in advance of the the weekly series of The Six Million Dollar Man. Whereas the first telefilm adapted Martin Caidin's introductory novel, Cyborg, it was decided to produce an original storyline instead of a direct adaptation of Caidin's second novel, Operation Nuke, although the book does contain some similar plot elements, most notabily the idea of a syndicate offering nuclear weapons for sale.

abstract
  • Wine, Women and War was the second of three made-for-TV films broadcast by the ABC network in 1973 in advance of the the weekly series of The Six Million Dollar Man. Whereas the first telefilm adapted Martin Caidin's introductory novel, Cyborg, it was decided to produce an original storyline instead of a direct adaptation of Caidin's second novel, Operation Nuke, although the book does contain some similar plot elements, most notabily the idea of a syndicate offering nuclear weapons for sale. Although often referred to as a pilot film, it's uncertain whether Wine, Women and War was actually considered as one, as it aired only a few months before the weekly series debuted, meaning the series would have already been in production by the time the film aired. Promotional ads for the film also declare it the premiere of "a new monthly series", although ultimately only The Solid Gold Kidnapping followed in that format before it switched to weekly broadcasts.
