Get Smart! (NBC, Saturday nights) set out to be the funniest show on television in 1965

Get Smart! (NBC, Saturday nights) set out to be the funniest show on television this year, and if it makes it which seems likely—much of the credit must go to Don Adams. 

For those who cry, "Who's Don Adams?," Don Adams replies: 

"I am probably the most-exposed comedian on TV. I was a regular on The Perry C07110 Show for a year and a half, . a regular guest on the Paar and Sullivan shows and worked a year on The Bill Dana Show. 

"The result is that everybody knows my routines—they stop me on the street to recite them to me—but no one knows my name. If they do call me by name, they say, 'Hi there, Glick.' 

"Glick" was Don Adams' role as the retarded house detective on the Dana show, and "Glick" in various disguises has been in many an Adams routine as a baseball umpire, defense attorney and many others.
