The Best of Get Smart (Season One) 1965 - 1966 

I find that hard to believe.

Now you're 73. Happy Fathers day!

Me too

Agreed, but there is also Karen Allen...

She started on Laugh In

When he auditioned for the role as Chief, he sang. It got him the role.

Covid - proof

I laughed when the chief asked to have the cone of silence raised, and the person who was supposed to raise it couldn't hear the chief asking to have it raised.

Say what?

Wonder how many Parents wished they had this for the back seat.

@@davidsmith385 And a mobile unit too!

Wood you believe???

​@@user-ht1xu4gv2uI wood knot.

And Buck Henry.

I learned about Don Adams' past before he became an actor..truly amazing..Barb Feldon is 89 in 2022

Tennessee Tuxedo!

I still use ''missed it by that much'' to this day when a situation calls for it.

Missed it by that much! Yes!

Hiemi you knock me out ha ha

I liked her voice

99 is 90 this year 🥹

Barbara has said that those who cast her for the role were concerned that she was taller than Don Adams. They did things on the show to make her height advantage less evident.

Then why isn't is still on? If people would have continued to watch it, advertisers would have continued to support it, and it would exist.

@@nothankyou5524 hidden agenda of people who run entertainment

I agree with you. Great comedy and very entertaining

@@nothankyou5524 Actors are all dead. No one to film

I forward to KENYA..

ikr

Yes u know there is a punch line coming....yet still so unexpected you just gotta laugh.....

AND... LOVING IT!!!

Great point!

I don't think it's so funny. I'm in the punchline now, and there's 23 people ahead of me in this line!

Those were the days: free-range childhood.

Don't romanticise the 1960s. There was a Cold War with Russian

I Dream of Jeannie, Batman, The Green Hornet and plenty of shows to have a good times...

All these and even the Flintstones started in prime time. I Columbus Ohio in the 60s we had a horror movie after school. It made it tough to decide sitting in front of the black and white TV or going outside to free range😅❤❤❤

Ha. Love that man. Lol

Mel Brooks. He's never failed

This show was outstandingly brilliant. Don Adam's was just so clever, Edward Platt, priceless, and Barbara Feldon, not only beautiful, but great comic relief as well! On top of that, the show had some of the finest writers ever seen in a sitcom! What a show!

There was "Sledge Hammer!" in the '80s. It was inspired--in part--by "Get Smart". But are either "the best"? I don't know. I'm leaning towards "All in the Family". And maybe "M*A*S*H" as a runner up. "Beverly Hillbillies" was also one the best. When Don Adams was approached to do this show, he was unsure about it. Then they said it was produced by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry. Without missing a beat, Don said, "I'll do it." So the legend goes.

@@mediamike693 yes you are what isn't

Yes yes n yes

I think it could take Gilligan's Island in a fist fight.

Thanks to Kaos's new re-animation syrum!

❤️ get smart agent 86& agent 99

Wasn't he a cowboy in blazing saddles-???🤔

agreed

Shes a sweetheart

She and Elizabeth Montgomery! I was in love with both of them as a kid in the '60's.

The truth is, the Cone of Silence doesn't work!

what was that Chief?

I think the Cone of Silence was one of the best running gags ever. :)

The portable cone of silence worked much better.

Every time I hear about EPA's Scott Pruitt's $43K sound proof phone booth I think of the Cone of Silence! LOL

...and...LOVING it!

One of my favorite sitcoms as a child.

Me, too

Agree 100%

You can say that again.

A very regurgitated answer...

@@alexkemp8074 Are you okay?

Mel Brooks at his prime is not easily surpassed

how old r u

@@TheKendeHD Does it matter? It was repeated for many years anyway, I watched it as a kid in the 80s, along with the Munsters and other old shows.

@@DoubleMonoLR good to know i just wanted to know his age

Yeah I'm gen z 19 years old I love this was so good 👍👍👌👌

I agree, but it was a trio, without Don Adams they would have missed it by that much! Karl

David W. Smiecinski - Like on a chessboard ... 🔱

Gee whiz, Dave - you must not have been paying close attention! It's Control and KAOS! :-)

Your dad owns the complete series? He must be very wealthy with all of the money from the residuals.

I remember that episode that was extremely funny. Don Adams Bernie kopell were fantastic

It is the episode where they reveal the Chief's name. Thaddeus.

Sort of like the episode of Green Acres when they had a play about The Beverly Hillbillies. 😆

I bet it was awesome

Mel Brooks and Buck Henry. How can you miss?

@@oldfarmer9004 Sounds like the Chief or 86

Mel is still with us. I think he's 90 or so. I'd like to get his view on the state of comedy on television today. To be honest, comedy...especially sitcoms are average at best. There isn't anything that moves me or makes me say, "Damn, that was good, I'm gonna check for that next week". Then there is the one show that at its peak, was "Must See 📺" Saturday Night Live has gone to the jungle scavengers. SNL has fallen and can't get up and its sad. Its sad because its bad. Bad week after week after week its among the worst on television. Gutfeld on FOX News gets better ratings and while no one would actually call Gutfeld a "comedian" the show does have its moments and its consistent. Having interesting guest that viewers most likely would hang around to see reaction and hear their views on the hot topics of the day and time. SNL looks like its not sure if it wants to keep pushing bad political satire with guest that don't really move the needle. After 47 years on air, its NBCs 3rd longest running show behind Sunday Mornings weekly snoozefest "Meet The Press" and 3 large cups of coffee and I still can't excited about "Today", I'm old enough to say I remember when Saturday Night Live was on ABC and Howard Cosell was the host. Later the same year (1975) NBCs version which was at first just "Saturday Night" was worth waiting up and risk getting dealt with by my parents because a 8 yr old was supposed to be in bed with the 📺 off and counting 🐑. So I know and lived through the SNL glory years and what we see today is no where near the quality and timeless classic skits we enjoyed back then. Today, SNL is a soft shell of what it once was, and if NBC wants to keep the show on and relevant, it may want to seriously consider cleaning house. Writers and Actors all canned and a new, fresh crew comes in and hopefully saves the show. We'll see what happens, but it must happen because it's wasting away.

They don't make 'em like this anymore

I think the "...missed it by that much..." is far more iconic...

That's the second-best quote I have ever seen!

“Did you get that Max?” “Not quite Chief.” “Which part didn’t you get Max?” “The part right after you said - listen carefully ....”

@@MrMenefrego1 ?

Funnie. Max is hilarious.

Good comedy is ageless, new tv shows comedy I do not understand

I figured that must have been the pilot. I've never seen that one.

Jim Vandemoter The movie with Steve Carell was pretty good though. They definitely did a great job casting.

I'm the guy that is cheerfull and courteous to the amazon rep on the phone. Spam land-line callers are fair game.

Why could this never be made today? I don't get that. I hear that constantly people saying couldn't make it today, just sounds like people whining

@@DarksideSleemo The movie with Carell was stupid, not funny at all. And most of all, no comparison to the tv series.

Whether it could be made today or not is irrelevant. It was perfect the first time, why would you bother re-doing it?

Yup

Wow!!..YOU MISSED...101 episodes= ....by ......THAT MUCH!!.....WELL DONE.....Control is proud...

KAOS watched 100 time and more one!

@@TheSuntan1 Lol!

Come out you're surrounded by a hundred agents. Would you believe a boy scout with a jackknife?

I love get smart theme, how the tv show starts, love don Adam, Barbara Feldman, she was so pretty

Major Mel Function The show, accurately predicted that jerks would have telephones ringing at entertainment venues.

Major Mel Function ; I believe The Man From UNCLE might have done it first. I could be wrong.

Dick Tracey had a wrist phone even earlier. Although that was just in a comic strip

I heard a retired Motorola engineer say (in a HBO Star Trek doc a few years back) that he was thinking of the Star Trek 'communicator' when he helped develop the first commercial cell phone. Of course they couldn't get the battery weight under 3 pounds in those days.

Yes but the Star Trek communicators were based on Walkie Talkie radios that the army and the police were already using. That's why police boxes disappeared in the UK in the 1960s, because our police started using Walkie Talkies instead. So Star Trek DIDN'T predict mobile phones as they keep trying to make out. They were based on existing technology. That was a standard idea in science fiction in those days. In the 1950s Movie Forbidden Planet they communicated with radios. When Star Trek did it, it was already an old idea. It really annoys me when people connected with Star Trek are so arrogant about predicting mobile phones and everything else, when they didn't. Almost everything that was done in Star Trek was done elsewhere first. Now I'll get all the sad trekkies jumping down my throat because of what I've said.

how old r u bruv

ohhhh...I get it......Time Fries "........like The Craw !!!!

Not Craw, Craw!

.....-Would you believe...............................??

haha same here! I think I saw it via Chinese CCTV. Love the shoe phone.

what was that Chief?

Luis Donado: An excellent combination, in my opinion.

What I always loved about the 'Cone of Silence'...when lowered, they couldn't even hear each other!

Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales Hi Chumley

mH86... Chief was always perfect, too bad he had a coronary and died. Lovely man, great singer, father figure. I really miss him.

Yes. Shame.

@@lorenzomagazzeni5425 he didn't stick around after the show finished its original run.

@@lorenzomagazzeni5425 Sadly, the "coronary" death was a fabrication. Platt was in the throes of depression and financial worries and commited suicide. www.wouldyoubelieve.com/platt.html

Yeah I wonder how much the Pink Panther duo of Peter Sellers and Herbert Lom borrowed the chemistry of Max & Chief ?

2022, too

They loosely based the 86 character on Clouseau and Bond.

Never thought of it, but it would have been hilarious to have those two in a movie.

With all due respect to series costar Barbara Feldon, I think that her character, Agent 99, was little more than a 'piece of furniture'.

I'm 25 but when I was in my teens, I got the complete seasons on DVD on christmas and by january 4th on my birthday I had watched them all twice XD

@Sunny Ah Day I totally agree. Get Smart and F-Troop were two of my top favorites also, and Captain Parminter reminded me so much of Max (with his slapstick fumbling ways) both he and the Hekowe indians killed us with laughter! And I just loved the nonsensical ancient old Hekawe sayings, but so much funnier when spoken directly in context by Frank DeKova (with inflections) and seeing the episodes where they were used, lol. I also loved the story about how the Hekowe's got their name... Sadly, they just don't make shows like this anymore! "Sparrow fly high, but cannot build dam with tail of beaver." "Bark of tree never bitter to hungry squirrel." "You always have empty teepee, when frost on buffalo nose." "When field mouse see shadow, time to string beads." "You show me squirrel with acorn, and I show you happy moose." "When thorn of blackberry grow on rock, bull frog sing like crow in winter." "You show me raccoon with nose in mud, and I show you squirrel with nut in tree."

I asked you not to tell me that!

she also knew my former neighbor who was a model back in the day. :)

WOW with shakespeare, thats awesome, i would love to talk to her about him what he was like did they like do it. he wrote McBeth with that Mel Gibson guy all painted blue and stuff till they pull him apart and pulled out everything inside he loved her.

Who is Barbara Feldman and, how does she enter into this dialogue? Dick Gauthier, also, might ask.

Feldon, not feldman

@Oona Craig You're a bigoted asswipe

I guess we're about the same age. My dad and I loved watching this show on our Zenith black and white TV.

I might believe half of your life... or maybe just the next 47 minutes.

In 2023, a lot of violence and negativity. I rarely watch TV anymore.
