Product Description: Join Agents 86 and 99 years later as they struggle to keep arch-rival KAOS from gaining world domination. This time they get a little help from their son and newly-minted spy, Zack, and Max, now the Chief of Control.
Discount Shopping: This particular Get Smart is the Fox television network's 1995 revival of the CBS hit show that debuted 30 years earlier. A softer, less satirical and less worldly version of the original show that was created by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry, the new Get Smart nevertheless brings Don Adams back to the role of Maxwell Smart, agent 86 for counter-intelligence agency Control. Married to former agent 99 (Barbara Feldon), now a U.S. Congresswoman, Max is the new Chief of Control, bungling through his desk job yet somehow still managing to stymie the evil forces of Kaos. In a way, Get Smart isn't really Adams' or Feldon's show anymore. The two are seen frequently enough, but much of the comic action now belongs to Andy Dick as the Smarts' son Zach, who graduates to full agent in the series' premiere episode. A bumbler with an inflated sense of his expertise, Zach is very much Max's son. Continuing the parallel between generations, Zach is also paired with an attractive and more professional agent, 66 (Elaine Hendrix), who gradually warms to him over several episodes. Good thing, because that's all there is: after seven programs, Get Smart came to an end, and that's all this DVD has to offer. Even if it isn't brilliant, the family-friendly show has a lot of funny moments, particularly when Dick gets to engage his talent for physical comedy. His interactions with Hendrix occasionally border on classic screwball comedy, a nice balance with the obvious warmth between Adams and Feldon. --Tom Keogh

First off, those who keep complaining in reviews that they thought this was the original series, it doesn't take a genius to work out that this says 1995 series, and that the entire 1960's series would not fit onto 1 disc. So stop complaining that you expected the original series because you did not read before buying.
So, 5 to 6 years after the re-union movie of Get Smart Again, the group decided to come back and see if they could make a spin off series work, unfortunately it didn't ... Read More

Rating: - Not The Original Series
This is the Fox version and not the original NBC/CBS version. Not as funny. Spend the money and get the original series. It's much better.
Rating: - Suitable DVD for Kids
My grandsons, ages 5 and 11 and 9 love this DVD. It's funny and they are into some "old-fashioned" TV shows.
Rating: - Watchable.
I initially read some reviews on this show,and the impression i got it was pathetic.But i actually enjoyed it,but it obviously didn't have the laughs the original series had.Now some people have knocked the cast,and it was always at its best when Max and 99 were in it,although Zack and agent 66 were in it for the most of it.Bernie Kopell as Sigfreid made an appearance in one episode.I do think they could have found a better character than Andy Dick as Zack,while some parts he was ok,overall i think ...
