Get Smart
Acquire some sense
Get Smart is an American spy comedy television series that aired from 1965 to 1970, created by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry.
The show parodies secret agent films and Cold War espionage, following bumbling Agent 86, Maxwell Smart, and his competent partner Agent 99.
It introduced catchphrases like Would you believe...? and Missed it by that much.
The title plays on the protagonist's surname while suggesting gaining intelligence—ironic given Smart's frequent incompetence.
