      "I was sick of looking at all those nice sensible situation comedies. They were such distortions of life. If a maid ever took over my house like Hazel, I'd set her hair on fire. I wanted to do a crazy, unreal comic-strip kind of thing about something besides a family. No one had ever done a show about an idiot before. I decided to be the first."
      - co- creator Mel Brooks

      "Would you believe that at this very moment there are 20,000 people viewing this photo?
      How about three dozen?
      How about two stoners in the back corner of Starbucks?"

      "Sorry about that, Chief." A silly spy sit-com was funny at first but the charm wore off fast.

      I lost interest when the show moved to CBS.

      To me, it was okay, but really a one-trick pony. The jokes were essentially the same with each episode, and I got bored after watching 3 of them. I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did.

      When our genial host James Vaughan quotes Mel Brooks as suggesting GET SMART was a mere "sitcom", we know he's up to no good.

      Growing up with GET SMART on the TV set each week, I and millions of other citizens knew it was an on-the-scene, real-life, 'cinemah vereetay" real-time documentary report on how our CIA was doing on the front lines, fighting The Good Fight.

      Methinks a KAOS operative has penetrated the info-sharing stream here and is misinforming us as to the real truth about Mr. Brooks' activities on behalf of our country.

      Just so we're all very clear: Mel Brooks played a key role in bringing to light KAOS' dangerous turns in the 1960's. What's more, this name "James Vaughan" rings suspiciously of "James Bond", and I sense a KAOS plot here.

      So that's when the show jumped the shark, although that was a few years before Happy Days even went on the air.

      I found Barbara Feldon interesting on the show, though.

      Not much charm in this for me. The shoe walkie-talkies were a really lame idea.

      I wonder if there's a Roaming charge.
