The Cone of Silence


With the new Get Smart movie coming out in a few weeks I just had to post about the cone. It is one of the most memorable gag scenes in the TV series. I have fond memories of the show and look forward to seeing the movie - eventually J

Anyone out there old enough to remember the series.. at least the syndication version?

  1. Oh yeah, I'm old enough. :-)

    I just wish that translating Get Smart into something this generation could appreciate didn't involve so much sophisticated humor. Get Smart was so unsophisticated and I don't remember it as crass. It'll be a pity to see that played for Generation Millenium.

  3. That was such a catchy tune, too! I have it stuck in my brain just from reading this post (can't see the video, work net nanny blocks everything).

    We thought it was funny, but we kids suspected that we were missing out on part of the humor, which was good, made it worth paying better attention to.
