Confession Tuesday

We recently joined Netflix...I think that I mentioned this in an earlier post. I love it. As I was looking at the available movies, I discovered that they have every season of the original series, Get Smart. I must now confess that I think that I have developed an addiction for Agent 86. We are on the second season already.

My children subjected me to the recently remade movie of Get Smart. Pitiful. Steve Carell is no Don Adams...let me tell you. The silliness is something that I miss in TV today. Sometimes when you sit down to watch, you just want to laugh. That's what Get Smart does for me. And the clothes? You just can't beat 99's wardrobe for 70's wear. It's "far out!" And poor Agent 13...man they just stick him anyway where. You never know when he will turn up. And how about that chair costume...dang, I was just about to sit there. And Himey? Robots were so cool in the 70's.

As I was watching last night, I thought to myself what a good 99 my friend at Goodnight Mom would make. She would be a great Barbara Feldon. She tall, dark hair, and has that deep alluring voice. And her husband...he would be a great 86. So, I think that they should be Control agents next Halloween. I am not sure that anyone would know who they were except me though...people might miss it "by this much..." or "would you believe, this much?"
