Good point, Carell was an excellent spy - not very Maxwell Smart at all. Wish there had been more laughs beyond those in the trailer.
Interesting. I like what they did to the Smart character. I don’t think a Don Adams style Agent 86 would have worked as well.
It might just be the found memories I had of the show growing up. I was a huge detective/spy fan as a kid. Be it either Noir, or campy comedy, I loved those shows. Get Smart wasn’t my first pick of the litter, but to make “my maxwell” into a competent spy (who was just a little clumsy) didn’t really wash for me.
