Trivia:

When this series aired on Fox, it was only the second time a live-action TV franchise had aired on four different mainstream TV networks (the first was "Tom Corbett, Space Cadet" (1950)). The original series seasons 1-4 aired on NBC, season 5 aired on CBS, the 1989 reunion movie Get Smart, Again! (1989) (TV) aired on ABC, and this new series, as previously mentioned, aired on Fox. Since then, no other live-action television franchise has accomplished this feat.

Revealing mistakes: The vending machine is obviously drawn into the opening credits.

Sorry, Chief. . .Not This Time

As other commentors have pointed out, the best episode of this revised series was the one that pitted long time enemies Max and Siegfried against each other. They were perfect rivals in the original series, and Adams and Kopell did not disappoint here. I could never get into Andy Dick as Max and 99's son; besides, he had made some disparaging comments about the show while it was still on which didn't strike me as being very smart. I liked the idea of Max being the head of CONTROL, and his secretary was very funny. Too bad the show focused on his son. I liked Agent 66, but she didn't have much to play off of dealing with the Andy Dick character.
