Customer Reviews:
Owning the collection...AND LOVING IT!!
I grew up watching this classic TV series; it became my immediate favorite. So when word got out in 2007 that it was finally FINALLY coming to DVD, I jumped at the chance to own it. I must say, kudos to HBO Video for lovingly packaging Get Smart, from its groovy 60's-flavored design to the crisp DVD transfer to all the rare bonus goodies included. Certain episodes stick out in memory ("One of Our Olives is Missing", "To Sire with Love, parts I & II", "Only Two 99", etc.). But it was great to get reacquainted with them all, from start ("Mr. Big", the only GS episode in black & white) to finish ("I Am Curiously Yellow", in which Larrabee gets the last laugh). GS was such a perfect showcase for the comedic genius of Don Adams, who coined such great catchphrases throughout that are well remembered today. And let's not forget the wonderful chemistry he had with great supporting players Barbara Feldon & Edward Platt. Revisiting GS, it's a no-brainer that it was created by Mel Brooks & Buck Henry. Particularly by Brooks, as the series benefited from his zany logic (who would've dreamed up shoe phones or other daffy CONTROL gadgets??). Other characters, such as the strangely dense Larrabee (Adams' real life cousin Robert Karavelas), Hymie the Robot (Dick Gautier was terrific in the role), and KAOS nemesis Siegfried (a brilliantly manic Bernie Kopell) are but a few who helped populate the wacky spy world of GS.
Great series, great presentation & great memories! Long live Smart!!
Get Smart - the best

Get-GetSmart
I bought it because I used to watch it as a kid and I'm sure I never saw all the episodes.
A great addition to your collection. The disc's are single sided not the flip disc's , huge plus.
Basic design label, nice package to keep them together. My daughter , who never saw it before was intrigued by the telephone booth in the box. A pamphlet inside with episode listing and brief history.
The pilot is in black and white. Full frame. I just started watching them and it will take a while to get through all of the discs. A good value at this discounted price.
A Great Set for an Even Greater Series
From: [...]
For those of you who only know of Maxwell Smart from the recent movie, let me start by saying the series is a million times better. Don't believe me? Would you believe a thousand? No, OK, probably like a hundred. But that's still a hell of a lot.
Get Smart is easily one of the funniest shows to come out of the late 60's-early 70's. While the movie does it justice, it misses it by THAT much. This is slapstick spy-spoofery at its finest. Parodies of the Bond movies and just about every other spy/mystery series of the time are here and hilarious.
The entire series is here. Unlike so many TV box sets, this one doesn't skimp on the special features either. Commentary from pretty much every major living cast/crew member, award show appearances, celebrity roasts, it's all included.
The packaging looks like the doors leading into Control HQ, which gives the set a unique, possibly collectible exterior. This set is cheaper than the identical one released by TimeLife, so that's a plus.
Overall, this is one of the best box sets of a TV series I've ever plunked down the cash for. If you like classic comedy, it doesn't get much better than this. Five out of five stars.
