Get Smart (1965)

Overview

Get Smart is an American comedy television series that satirizes the secret agent genre. Created by Mel Brooks with Buck Henry, the show stars Don Adams, Barbara Feldon, and Edward Platt. Henry said they created the show by request of Daniel Melnick, who was a partner, along with Leonard Stern and David Susskind, of the show's production company, Talent Associates, to capitalize on "the two biggest things in the entertainment world today"—James Bond and Inspector Clouseau. Brooks said: "It's an insane combination of James Bond and Mel Brooks comedy." This is the only Mel Brooks production to feature a laugh track. The success of the show eventually spawned the follow-up films The Nude Bomb and Get Smart, Again!, as well as a 1995 revival series and a 2008 film remake. In 2010, TV Guide ranked Get Smart's opening title sequence at No. 2 on its list of TV's Top 10 Credits Sequences, as selected by readers.

Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Center

Primary

The film's primary objective is comedic entertainment and parody of the spy genre, with its core conflict being a generic good-versus-evil scenario against a global terrorist threat. The themes of individual heroism and the humorous critique of bureaucratic inefficiency are universal and do not align with a specific political ideology.

The movie features some visible diversity in its supporting cast, but its primary roles adhere to traditional casting without explicit race or gender swaps. The narrative maintains a neutral or positive portrayal of traditional identities and does not incorporate explicit DEI themes as central to its plot.

Secondary

The 'Get Smart' television series, a spy comedy from the 1960s, does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on espionage, humor, and the relationship between Maxwell Smart and Agent 99, without incorporating queer identities or storylines.

The 1965 television series 'Get Smart' is a spy comedy focused on espionage parody and slapstick humor. There are no identifiable transsexual characters or themes present within the show's narrative or character arcs, resulting in no depiction to evaluate.

The show primarily features Agent 99, a highly intelligent and resourceful spy. While she participates in dangerous missions and often outwits male opponents, her victories are typically achieved through espionage, quick thinking, or the use of gadgets and firearms, rather than direct physical combat or martial arts against one or more male adversaries.

The 1965–1970 series "Get Smart" is an original production, not an adaptation or reboot of pre-existing characters. All characters were created for this show, thus lacking prior canonical genders to be swapped.

This is the original 1965–1970 television series. As such, it establishes the canonical races for its characters and does not adapt pre-existing material or characters from prior installments. Therefore, no race swaps occurred within this specific production.
