Get smart year 4 myth same egg ontgoing brain chimpnzee inability work4 I have no particular sentence However a good point is I could know how a brain actwhat I smell or hear or see This byok was not what I wanted but it has good contents. Get smart year 4 5 I choose this book because of its title GET SMART what a great title this is However this book s contents were dissapintably because this book is not written about how you get smart 159 So many bad puns Definitely a walk down memory lane 159 It was silly and stupid and that s about what I was looking for I love old tv tie in novels Being what they are they have no choice but to be very rooted in the time they were written and I like the details jokes about the Beatles and Rock Hudson Greenwich village and Beatniks the UN and foreign spies with ridiculous accents 159 Written prior to the series running but based on the original ideas this has some differences to the series the biggest issue though is that a lot of the humour in Get Smart is based around the vocal and physical characteristics from Don Adams which is difficult almost impossible to replicate on the page. Get smart 6 student book pdf Fang agent K 13 is here and the Chief of Control but Chief doesn t really have the same personality as I remember from the TV show Actually everybody in this book is a bit wackier than I expected it s not just Max that bumbles everything up Good guys bad guys and ordinary civilian bystanders are all working at about the same level here so Max is not alone in his ineptness. Get smart streaming I think this was the first book I ever read that was based on a TV show that wasn t for children Since then I ve probably read two or three other books based on adult TV shows there s no way I can possibly keep count. Book get the picture It was about three point seven times funnier than the Get Smart TV shows and that s saying something Chief 159 Get Smart is the first book in a series of books written by William Johnston based on the Get Smart television series In this book Agent 86 Maxwell Smart is in New York City with his faithful pal Agent K 13 also known as Fang Max and Fang are assigned to find a computerized robot built by a woman named Blossom It was purely by accident but this computer named Fred after Blossom s deceased dog could possibly be the most important piece of machinery in the world This is why both Control and FLAG a secret agency of evil much like the KAOS are both out to find Fred. Get smart book review Read 159 I read thisThis was a quick read I thought it was really well written and I thought the comedy worked with the medium the reason it s not a five is it had some slow parts 159 An original novel based on the TV series Get Smart Maxwell Smart a secret agent working for CONTROL and his canine partner Fang team up with a civilian to search for Fred the robotic AI she invented who has gone on the run. Get smart nuclear Get Smart was published only a few weeks after the first episode of Get Smart aired so writer William Johnston had probably never seen the show At most he might have seen the pilot at a press screening or perhaps read a draft of the script I gather the book was hugely successful It was followed by many sequels and contributed much to the TV tie in becoming a staple of pop culture for the next few decades and to Johnston becoming the go to guy for writing them. Get smart shoe phone prop It differs from the series in a number of details there is no sign of Max s TV partner 99 CONTROL is based in New York rather than Washington DC the enemy organisation Max fights is not KAOS but FLAG Fang agent K 13 a dog plays a much larger role Max seems much stupid. Get smart episodes book In some scenes Johnston has captured the feel of the show very well one of the best is the early sequence where Max tries to answer his shoe phone on a busy New York street It was these few pages found when browsing through the book that bumped it to the top of my TV tie in list Also I ve been rewatching the show on DVD. Get smart 6 student book pdf But mostly the book doesn t really feel like the TV show consisting mainly of a frenetic chase and a series of captures and escapes If anything it closely resembles the mediocre movie that followed years later The Nude Bomb Being fairly stupid was always a key aspect of Max s character on screen but the book takes it to a level of unbelievability that diminished my enjoyment Blossom despite being the inventor of an AI is nevertheless a 1960s sitcom ditz The invention was purely by accident I tried to imagine she was sensibly hiding her genius computer science skills from the government but it was hard work The TV series was much modern in its handling of female characters Of course since book Max is very stupid Blossom is still the smartest human in the room Overall this was fairly well written and fun but the relentless non stop pace and the complete absence of believable characters and situations were wearying I ve never seen so many exclamation marks in one book before It s good enough that I d be interested in reading one of the sequels written after Johnston had had a chance to watch the series 159.
