《北非沙漠行动》是1966年Eddie Davis、Jack N. Reddish执导的的美国二战电视剧，电视剧原名The Rat Patrol。1966年9月12日首播于ABC，1968年3月18日结束，全长58集(2季)，每集30分钟，每集一个故事。
　　故事是来源于二战中真实的事件，只不过历史上是英国特种部队Long Range Desert Group(这种来无影去无踪的轻装高机动部队，不断骚扰德军补给线和孤立居点，让德国人非常头疼)，而电视剧的主角换成了美国人。我国引进后由辽宁人民艺术剧院配音。辛敏航配主角,韩力、刘喜瑞、方树桥等参配。

　　Eric Braeden stars as Dr. Charles Forbin, who has created a supercomputer named Colossus, built solely for the purpose of controlling the nuclear defenses of the Western alliance. It isn't too long after, however, that the Russians announce that they too have built a similar computer for those same purposes on their side--Guardian. And when the two machines begin sharing information at a speed nobody can believe, an attempt is made to disable them.
　　This unfortunately just raises the machines' ire; and in retaliation, they launch their weapons at each other's home nations. The result is a chilling scenario that is potentially becoming all too real these days.
　　COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT was not a big hit at the box office for various reasons. One is that its cast wasn't exactly well known. Another reason is that its ending isn't exactly a happy one. Still a third reason is that Universal had trouble trying to promote it in the wake of the huge success of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. The latter reason is obvious: Colossus and Guardian, like HAL in the Kubrick movie, become central characters here. The difference here is that while HAL malfunctions due to a programming conflict, Colossus and Guardian remain all too stable, convinced beyond a doubt that they know how to protect Mankind better than Man himself. As the computers point out: "One inevitable rule is that Mankind is his own worst enemy."
　　Joseph Sargent's direction is efficient, and the special effects work of Albert Whitlock still manages to work despite its obvious age. An overlooked gem in the sci-fi genre, this should be given a revival.
