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.
I watched this as a young child and didn't know anything about who produced or created it. As a high schooler, I watched Young Frankenstein and fell in love with Mel Brooks' creations. Years later watching a Get Smart episode I finally saw the credits that Mel Brooks created it. My only reaction--"of course, that explains it all!"
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.
"Get Smart" was the brilliant and most hilarious t.v. series of the '60s. Don Adams and all the supporting actors' timing and delivery were brilliant. Very clever hilarity.
Edward Platt was brilliant in this series too, a great character actor. He got plenty of parts but never the recognition he deserved. So sad how he died.
I was a baby when this show premiered. Saw the re-runs in the 70's. Silly fun. Mel Brooks and Buck Henry were involved. Knew it was gonna be funny. Wish we could have this today!!!
Having been born in the 1960's, I am biased, but this was and still is the best TV comedy series ever made....nothing today comes close and movie remakes never captured the brilliance of the original
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.
Don Adams was brilliant in this role. That hilariously nasally voice used ro crack me up. To this day when I hear a nasally voice like that the first thing that comes to mind is Don Adams' Agent 86. "Aha! The old (insert ruse here) trick ay?!" Love it!
This is hilarious! I'd seen the entire show, all seasons as a little kid and don't remember half the stuff but slowly coming back. Guest appearances by Leonard Nimoy, Simon Oakland, and others i wouldn't have remembered either. I do know some of the gags were reused but never got old. When the guy said he was gonna jump out the window i immediately knew he was going to "miss it by that much"! Lol....
Ah the good old days. I still quote,, " Missed it by that much," "Why don't you ask how my holiday went?" How did your holiday go?" "Don't ask! ". "Sorry about that Chief." "Would you believe etc." and many more. I still get chuckles from the old reruns on TV today. Great comedy from a more innocent time.
Half the joy of this hilarious show is you can see the punchline coming from a mile away... yet somehow that makes it even funnier when it finally does arrive!
Let’s not forget that this great sitcom was created by Mel Brooks with Buck Henry and the hilarious cone of silence.Don Adams as agent 86 was as funny as he could be and the voices of Tennessee Tuxedo & Inspector Gadget cartoons.
Watching this made me realize how many classic lines came from that series: "Would You Believe...? "Sorry About That Chief," "Missed it By That Much," etc. And that damn Cone of SIlence! lol
Favorite line from Get Smart: Smart kneeling over fallen, dying agent listening to his dying words. Agent 99 would ask, “what did he say, Max? Max: “He told me to get my knee off his chest.”
The writers for Get Smart won many awards. This was television comedy at its very best. The cast was perfect, the plots incredibly creative, the concept and overall innuendo at times were absolutely brilliant. To me, I would put Get Smart down as one of the Top 10 influential, and painfully funny programs in American Television History. Even though I've seen every episode multiple times, its still just as funny. I did a experiment, and thanks to RUclips and the people who post these classic shows, had some kids over. They were about 12-15 and put Get Smart on the Big TV. Some of those kids had tears coming down the laughed so hard. I felt good about it because the comedy back then was so much more thought out, and the physical aspects, combined with the clasdic facial expressions had those kids in a laughing zone. It just proved that Get Smart really was a great comedy that is timeless.
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.
Get Smart was a very funny and yes a "smart" television sitcom that still holds up well. It is as funny today as when it first aired! I watch it every night at 1:30am on the decades 5.5 retro tv channel here in NYC.
I think it's different for us, the people that grew up watching this, than people of other generations. The 60s were a special time. 95% of play time was spent outside. The other 5% was watching funny shows like Get Smart.
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😅❤❤❤
The 70's were similar. I was born in 1967, so this show was already over with or ending when I was began watching TV. However I do remember seeing Re-runs or syndicated rebroadcasts of it later on. But yes as kids in the 70's, 🌄🌄Saturday🌄Mornings🌄🌄 were one of the few times we were allowed to, as my Dad called it, "sitting in front of the idiot box." Otherwise we were outside riding our bikes. We had a really great wooded/forestry area down the road from my house and behind my buddies house. There was a "lake" that the trails went out to called "Mud Lake". The trail went all the way around it, and it also branched off to other spots as well. We used to build forts, go fishing, hide-n-seek, and so many other games. We never had smartphones obviously. As you also know we only had 4 networks, ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS. We also had one local network station that was unaffiliated with any big network, WVTV Channel-18. Then a bit later on we got another unaffiliated local station, WCGV Channel-24. Channel 18 used to show older Re-runs. Back then we didn't have technology, we used or created our own technology, our IMAGINATIONS. And we had just as much fun if not more fun than sitting on a smartphone all day on Farcebook.
This show has me cracking up! Even the opening credits with the multiple doors to headquarters was pretty cool. I need this hallway to get to my office.

Chief " This pill will cause painless death in 20 seconds" Max "One question" Chief "What?" Max " How do I get them to take it?" LMAO!
Oh, I really love Get Smart. I watch it together with my aunt and we always pretty sure that we will go laugh so much! The way silly of Maxwell makes the serie be really great.
I’m only 18 but my brother and I grew up watching this show as it was often on TV in the evenings. We were always excited to see what would happen in the show. The show is also older than our parents 😳
This theme song brings back sooo many good childhood memories.When I was about 13,in 2008 my local theater put on this play get smart.Kids were the cast and we had a blast.
That show was brilliant. It could never be made in todays world. There's an old saying, "a society is in trouble when people lose the ability to laugh at themselves."
all these years later and this show's still as funny as it was when it first ran!!!Here's some funny moments from it; including from the first episode which was the only one in black-and-white.
@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."
Chief: " The pins show a concentration of enemy agents". Max: What is this pin in Manetoba? (pulls it out). Chief:" You idiot, that was holding up the map!" Max:
My dad owns the complete series. We used to watch this show all the time. My favorite episode was the one where Control and Chaos kept kidnapping their operatives until only Maxwell and Siegfried were left
Thanks for reminding me of so many belly-laugh moments. I think this show was definitely ahead of it's time, certainly in terms of scripts. Excellent cast also.
4:10 Not only is the "phone" really a cigarette lighter, the "cigarette lighter", as it appears to be, is what conceals the actual phone! 6:25 The entire park bench scene is gold. Also in season 1: * In the pilot, Smart confronts Kaos's Mr. Big: "So you're Mr. Big", who replies, "So you're Mr. Smart", after which a wide shot revealing that "Mr. Big" is dwarf Michael Dunn hints that _neither_ of them is really what their name says they are! * When "the Craw" (er, I mean "the Craw") has Smart by the hand, he tells his henchman, Bobo, "Apply the bamboo-under-the-fingernails torture". A moment later he shrieks, "Not on ME, you fool!!" * The portable Cone of Silence!
Qué hermoso recuerdo! de lo mejor que dejó mi infancia! ,desde Argentina, un reconocimiento a todos los comediantes y actores que nos regalaron alegría y carcajadas a más no poder, Thank you for sharing this fabulous memory !
can't imagine the tv show is 50 years-old! I watched it before 20 years when I was a primary school kid and I remember it was dubbed into mandarin Chinese. Now I am in USA and watch it again. Time flies!!!
An evergreen show !!! The reboot versions don't even come close !!! The Bumbling secret agent Maxwell Smart is a classic character !!! Don Adams was pure revelation !!!
I remember watching this show when I was 12/13. It was my favorite show and I never missed it. One of the funniest shows in the history of television IMO. Don Adams was the perfect actor to play Maxwell Smart.

Almost 55 years later and Get Smart is still like new. The show never gets old, is still funny and is better than any show today.
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.

The show does does have Mel Brooks, his style of comedy
A Real TV comedy, so glad I lived back then, there's NO comparison ❤😂
The Cone of Silence will forever be one of the funniest segments on television!

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.

Thanks for all the laughs and gags you had for generations. RIP Buck Henry
ah shit. born in 57. What fun watching this as a kid growing up, laughing with my Mom and Dad. Oh the cone of silence. God Bless Mel Brooks
Wasn't he a cowboy in blazing saddles-???🤔
"Get Smart" was the brilliant and most hilarious t.v. series of the '60s. Don Adams and all the supporting actors' timing and delivery were brilliant. Very clever hilarity.
From "Sorry about that Chief" to "Would you Believe" I think Get Smart gave us more sayings then any other show on TV.
I still use ''missed it by that much'' to this day when a situation calls for it.
Missed it by that much! Yes!
Don Adams created a lot of the sayings himself ,too
Mel B has a great audio bio
BEST show ever....perfect cast, music, gags, everything :)
My favourite show when I was growing up! Priceless!
This show never dies.
@@mediamike693 yes you are what isn't

Thanks to Kaos's new re-animation syrum!
❤️ get smart agent 86& agent 99
When you put three comedy geniuses (Mel Brooks, Don Adams and the dry humor of Edward Platt) to work on the same show, you can’t miss.
Edward Platt was brilliant in this series too, a great character actor. He got plenty of parts but never the recognition he deserved. So sad how he died.
When he auditioned for the role as Chief, he sang. It got him the role.
An unforgettable classic !!!! Saw some of the episodes when I was a kid in Lincoln Nebraska !!!! Never forgot them !!!!
Ah, this takes me back to a great childhood. My kingdom for a time machine.
"You must want the spy school, that's next-door," lol
grew up on this show, an absolute pop culture icon
One of the greatest, iconic comedy series...ever!!
I grew up watching it.
Far better comedic writing than anything on TV today.
Agree 100%
You can say that again.
A very regurgitated answer...

Me, too
Buck Henry was a funny man and a talented writer! Thanks for the laughs!
Oh, Barbara Feldon - what a beauty
agreed
Shes a sweetheart
She and Elizabeth Montgomery! I was in love with both of them as a kid in the '60's.
The two episodes Featuring Detective Harry Hoo will always be my favorite. Comedy gold. RIP Don.
Having been born in the 1960's, I am biased, but this was and still is the best TV comedy series ever made....nothing today comes close and movie remakes never captured the brilliance of the original
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.
@@richardhausig9493and Buck Henry...
Was almost cancelled after 1st season, took a while to find audience
Amazing the number of Get Smart inventions that became real.
we sure dont have good TV like this anymore
Great memories. Buck Henry and Mel Brooks. Unbeatable combo.
I agree, but it was a trio, without Don Adams they would have missed it by that much!

nobody remembers buck fuck & henry DON ADAMS & BARBRA FELDMON 4 ever
Don Adams was brilliant in this role. That hilariously nasally voice used ro crack me up. To this day when I hear a nasally voice like that the first thing that comes to mind is Don Adams' Agent 86. "Aha! The old (insert ruse here) trick ay?!" Love it!
This is hilarious! I'd seen the entire show, all seasons as a little kid and don't remember half the stuff but slowly coming back.

Don Adams a former US Marine. Served America in the Marine Corps. I salute him. 🇺🇸
Half the joy of this hilarious show is you can see the punchline coming from a mile away... yet somehow that makes it even funnier when it finally does arrive!
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!
Don Adams was unique.
I loved this show when I was a kid...Great memories.

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

Must-see after school viewing. Hilarious. My Dad, who usually preferred British comedy over American, absolutely loved Get Smart.
One of the best parts of my live, to watch Maxwell Smart on TV and just as good years later.
Yup

Favorite line from Get Smart:
Smart kneeling over fallen, dying agent listening to his dying words.
Agent 99 would ask, “what did he say, Max?
Max: “He told me to get my knee off his chest.”
Have not seen this show in a very long time nice to see this classic show
One of my favorite shows. I could never get enough of it. Either I've lost my sense of humor or TV producers just don't make shows as funny anymore.
They don't make 'em like this anymore
GET SMART, I grew up with this series. Love it
OMG This was my favorite old show of all time.... Nothing on TV today can compare to this humorist satire.
I loved this show when I was 10 years old. My dad usually only liked westerns at the time but he loved the show.

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

Always love the "Cone of Silence" gag!! Will never forget Hymie, and the old "would you believe" routine...Don Adams was the greatest!!! RIP.
I asked you not to tell me that!

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
Man, how I love all this.

I bet it was awesome
Good to see Max again after so many years.
Remember growing up and watching the show it's still hilarious today
This show was one of my favorites as a kid 🙂

Great assembly of fantastic clips of a great show! Most enjoyable! A gem from my childhood.
Chief: "Hodgkins, raise the Cone of Silence."
Hodgkins: "What?"
I have the entire series. Of Get Smart.
They are excellent. 😆
Yes I grew up watching this as a kid. One of the great kids shows for sure. Thanks for the memories.
What a great team: Adams, Platt and the super lovely Barbara
That show was brilliant. It could never be made in todays world. There's an old saying, "a society is in trouble when people lose the ability to laugh at themselves."
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?
Loved Max's female neighbor. Perfect casting, so funny!!
all these years later and this show's still as funny as it was when it first ran!!!Here's some funny moments from it; including from the first episode which was the only one in black-and-white.
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.
That show was brilliant. Another Mel Brooks gem.
Just watched all Get Smart S1 episodes on dvd ... 50 years on it's still hilarious! :D
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."
Chief: " The pins show a concentration of enemy agents".
Max: What is this pin in Manetoba? (pulls it out).
Chief:" You idiot, that was holding up the map!"
Max:
My dad owns the complete series. We used to watch this show all the time. My favorite episode was the one where Control and Chaos kept kidnapping their operatives until only Maxwell and Siegfried were left
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.
Use 2 watch this with my dad. This is good tv. An dad loved it. 86 did a great job on this show. Well really they all did. Nice 2 see again
Thanks for reminding me of so many belly-laugh moments. I think this show was definitely ahead of it's time, certainly in terms of scripts. Excellent cast also.
With all due respect to series costar Barbara Feldon, I think that her character, Agent 99, was little more than a 'piece of furniture'.
Far and away ,the funniest show ever. Thank you for posting this
Loved this show growing up and I still find it very funny
4:10 Not only is the "phone" really a cigarette lighter, the "cigarette lighter", as it appears to be, is what conceals the actual phone! 6:25 The entire park bench scene is gold. Also in season 1:
* In the pilot, Smart confronts Kaos's Mr. Big: "So you're Mr. Big", who replies, "So you're Mr. Smart", after which a wide shot revealing that "Mr. Big" is dwarf Michael Dunn hints that _neither_ of them is really what their name says they are!
* When "the Craw" (er, I mean "the Craw") has Smart by the hand, he tells his henchman, Bobo, "Apply the bamboo-under-the-fingernails torture". A moment later he shrieks, "Not on ME, you fool!!"
* The portable Cone of Silence!
Qué hermoso recuerdo! de lo mejor que dejó mi infancia! ,desde Argentina, un reconocimiento a todos los comediantes y actores que nos regalaron alegría y carcajadas a más no poder, Thank you for sharing this fabulous memory !
I loved this show as a kid. I have the whole 5 seasons on DVD.
can't imagine the tv show is 50 years-old! I watched it before 20 years when I was a primary school kid and I remember it was dubbed into mandarin Chinese. Now I am in USA and watch it again. Time flies!!!
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?
An evergreen show !!! The reboot versions don't even come close !!! The Bumbling secret agent Maxwell Smart is a classic character !!! Don Adams was pure revelation !!!
Hilarious show, loved it. I love the cone of silence ! TV nowadays leaves me with not much to laugh about. Alot to be sad about.
In 2023, a lot of violence and negativity. I rarely watch TV anymore.
I remember watching this show when I was 12/13. It was my favorite show and I never missed it.
One of the funniest shows in the history of television IMO.
Don Adams was the perfect actor to play Maxwell Smart.
The would you believe gag was a riot always cracked me up 😅
The best thing to watch on this cold winter night dec 22 2020
