Get Smart was the funniest show on tv.

The writing was outstanding. Mel Brooks, Buck Henry, Pat McCormick (who just died in July), Allan Burns, James Komack, Jess Oppenheimer, Leonard Stern...if you watch the credits on almost any show on TV Land you'll see these names.

And the directors included guys like Richard Donner, Alan Rafkin, Jay Sandrich, Dick Carson (Johnny's brother), and Earl Bellamy. Lots of talent there.

I had sent Mr. Adams one of our Marine mascot suction pups about a year ago and I was hoping to get a response. The writing was the best and when nick at nite launched the reruns I stole the poster off metro north one nite. I taped every episode, would you believe it?

I also have some of the paperbacks from the 60's and a Poster from the studio when it premiered that i bought off ebay. I also won his autograph but the scum on ebay never sent it.
Sideshow made dolls of the chief and max with the cone of silence. And they wanted tom poston for Max.
