Get Smart

I don't see how anyone could possibly ever dislike this show. Even though it is a late 60s show, it still manages to obtain an ever-growing fan base, even 4 decades later.

I have often wondered though, was Maxwell Smart's name meant to be ironic? "Max Smart"? I am surprised he wasn't killed 100 times during the show's run - though you can't have a show without the main character can you? And I think making him a 'bumbling' character was part of the charm.

Of course the legendary Don Adams would once again rise in popularity during the 80s with the introduction of the classic kid's cartoon "Inspector Gadget" (which I always felt was a "spin" on 'Get Smart').

Classic stuff all round.moreless

A very good satire, and funny too. Don Adams is the perfect person for max smart. The gadgets are very funny, and 99 isnt bad herself. nothing really bad about this show at all. Was a hit back then, and if it premired today, it would still be a hit. A comedy where sex and violence was in the future. Good, clean fun.

I rated this show a ten, it remains one of my favourites. I watched it from the start way back in 1969. I was 9 years old. I've seen every episode a few times over. The last season was the best. I liked it when 99 and Max got married and had babies. One of my favourite episodes was the one where they went to London to catch criminals in Hyde Park and at the wax museum.

Also, when 99 gave birth to the twins, that was a very good one. It was a comedy drama that was very well done. I hope it comes back to reruns soon.moreless

I love Get Smart! Ben Franklin once said there are two thing in life that are guaranteed: Death and Taxes. Well, I have a third. The Cone of Silence will never work. No matter what.
What can I say? This show IS the definition of classic! It's amazing!

Get Smart is a show based around Maxwell Smart who is an agent of Control trying to be a force good and niceness if only Kaos would do the same. 99 who is Max's partner is the better spy out of the pair but she lets Max take the credit for it and also her name is never revealed which is a bit more spy like compared to Max who every Kaos agent knows my name and number.And we can't forget the beloved Chief of Control who has to put up with Max all the time and clean up the mess which Max gets himself into.
Overall the show is funny and has a whole pile of catch phrases which you will know and love by a couple of episode but the lines still stay good.moreless
