After “Get Smart”, he showed up on a lot of 1970s game shows like Match Game and Tattletales.

I was disappointed later when in When Things Were Rotten he had that gay 70's long hair men's style.

Well, to be fair, he was playing Robin Hood.

Errol Flynn didn't exactly sport a crewcut when he played the same role.

Regards,

Yes. The horrible 70’s.

I had to be in High School during that terrible period.

Those were the “good old days” compared to now.

IMHO

The limp 1963 version of Bye Bye Birdie omitted the two best numbers, All American Boy and Talk to Me.

I loved Get Smart as a kid. In fact, I was watching the first episode that Hymie appeared in last night.

He was a very good illustrator.
