missed me by THAT much...

Get Smart. An absolute American classic. I would say the greatest long term TV sitcom/parody but that’s not the issue here.

What are the great lines and scenes from this sorely-missed show?

One quote/scene per thread I’ll start with:

“AND… loving it.”

Your shoe is ringing

would you believe a boy scout with a slingshot?

Sorry about that, Chief.

1)Ahh, the old put-the-watch-on-the-other -side-of-the-pillow-while-sliding-down-the-bannister trick!
2)Smart: Chief, protocol demands that we use the “Cone of Silence.”

Chief: Oh, God.

“Don’t cry Hymie, you’ll rust your eyeballs.”

Damn you wring, for getting in the slingshot one before me!

I do believe, however, that it was:

“Would you believe an angry boy scout with a slingshot?”

Anyone who can verify that out there?

Now how many of you loved Don Adams’ directorial debut with “Hammer”. I thought the series was hilarious!

There were multiple variations on the boyscout theme. As you no doubt recall, the scene would be : Bad guy with gun on Max. Max would say “at this very minute, there are 50 trained agents surrounding the building RIGHT NOW” Bad guy would say “50 trained agents? I don’t believe you”. Max would go on “would you believe a sqaud of retired security guards?” Bad guy : No. “how 'bout a (fill in adjective such as angry, tense, irritated, grumpy) boyscout (could also be grandmother etc.) with a (pretty useless object such as pea shooter, slingshot, water pistol, spatula etc.)?”

So, I kinda condensed the thought.

I personally thought the show went downhill too fast when Max and 99 married and had the kids.

“I asked you not to tell me that!”

“Not the Craw. The Craw.”

I have NEVER seen the episodes after they got married. I saw the wedding show, where Maxwell had to go to the wedding standing up (something to do with a map on his stomach?).

I would add some lines, but I haven’t seen the show in years. Thanks for the memory jog though. I lived on the reruns for most of my childhood.

I remember Siegfried had a suicide ring. If he took it off, his wife would kill him.

“That’s the second biggest (insert noun) I’ve ever seen!”

“This is KAOS! We don’t (insert verb) here!”
