Goodbye Don Adams

[katermutti]

I remember Get Smart quite well, so many years ago. And I liked Don Adams.

Barbara Feldon is still alive - I saw an interview with her tonight on CNN where she discussed the show itself and talked about Don Adams. She looked real nice still.

Oh, I loved Get Smart as a kid.

It's currently on a re-run on Finnish TV, quite an appropriate coincidence, I think.

I remember an anecdote someone, perhaps Gene Wilder, told on Conan O'Brien. He claimed that Adams got so drunk in their Emmy Award party, that he passed out on top of his Emmy, which made a wound in his neck. True or not, a good story.

Oh.........I was so upset when I heard that! That show was one of my ABSOLUTE favorites in the 60's.
........"Would you believe...."

Sigh, another one passes...

Excuse me, my shoe is ringing...

That was one of my favorite shows as a kid, too. RIP.
