the nude bomb
I am so glad you have dug up Maxwell Smart. He was one slick character.
my favorite character is Hymie (besides the gear-fab barbara feldon) the robot (played by dick gautier) and my favorite gag line which he used over and over and over again was : "My fathers name was Hymie.' heres his profile :
Hymie
Real name: Hymie the Robot
Cover Identity: Debonair Agent
Home: CONTROL
Special Skills: IQ is over 200, Weight 982lbs., Rechargeable
Needs Improvement: Takes everything literally, Requires greasing every thousand miles
Close Friends: Ethel the PBX Board, Frances the coffee machine, Bruce the Elevator
Hometown: Dr. Ratton's lab, later KAOS
Interests: a good glass of kerosene (now and then)
and heres the GS reading room
while im at it. id just like to boost the tv show Monk in connection to relentlessly repetitive gags :
a rookie dectective buys a fake rolex and chimes in with the wrong time throughout the entire show requiring constant correction. unfazed he never doubts its authenticity and refers to it as his rolex ( he paid $300.00 for it from a street vendor). in the end it craps out and he repeats his fools errand and overpays for a new fake rolex which procedes to spontaniously combusts on his wrist.
the second pete repeat-a-bit took place in front of a construction site in times square. every time monk starts a sentence a jackhammer would start up and drownd him out and he'd have to break off and restart his comment and the jack-hammer would start again. the cycle is repeated over a dozen times in a row. thats pure andy breckman (the creator) humor and i live for it.
