RIP Agent 86

Post by danlo »

Don Adams who played Maxwell Smart in the classic Mel Brooks/Buck Henry 60s spy-comedy and well as being the unforgetable voice of Tennessee Tuxedo and Inspector Gadjet died at 82 on Sunday. Get Smart was one of my favorite shows ever! "Would you believe..." The "Cone of Silence", KAOS, Hymie the robot and the beyond hot Barbara Feldon. :cry: You were the greatest Don!

He will surely be missed. Maxwell Smart is the 2nd greatest spy ever!

RIP, 86! :Hail:

I liked Get Smart as a kid. I really liked the opening title sequence that showed Agent 86 going to work, the phone booth, entering his secret HQ past all those sliding doors. Hilarious!

I also liked the 1980 movie The Nude Bomb. Too bad it was a flop, because it seemed entertaining to me at the time.

Farewell, Mr. Adams, and thanks for giving us a very memorable character.
