The Triple B Series is a franchise of twelve films that focus around the DEA agents based in Hawaii and later the secret activities of a secret U.S. spy agency known as L.E.T.H.A.L. Because of the spy agency acronym, the series is sometimes referred to as the L.E.T.H.A.L. Ladies series with the final two films in the series carrying the L.E.T.H.A.L. Ladies name above the title in some territories. All but two films in the franchise are directed by Andy Sidaris. Although some of the films feature returning characters, some actors appear throughout the series in different roles and there is little effort to maintain series continuity between instalments.
