Show notes

The crew finishes Get Smart with a finale that mixes polished slapstick with uncomfortable racial stereotypes and dated gender roles.

Cordkillers 617: Congratulations, You Found the Trope Sep 09, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Nolan argues that recognizing the machinery behind storytelling doesn’t necessarily make it bad storytelling. Plus, theaters lean harder on premium tickets, sports experiments with free alternate broadcasts, and smart TVs may be paying far more attention than viewers realize.

The FULL Get Smart Experience: Lowest (513 - "Ice Station Siegfried") Sep 03, 2026

Show notes

Tom and Brian find *Get Smart*’s lowest-rated episode badly weakened by Don Adams’ absence, with cheap sets, too much exposition, and an anticlimactic ending. Amos is especially disappointed that an episode with such a promising premise falls so flat.

The FULL Get Smart Experience: First (101 - "Mr. Big") Aug 20, 2026

Show notes

Tom, Brian, and Amos kick off their Get Smart experiment with the 1965 pilot “Mr. Big” and are delighted to discover that nearly everything they associate with the series—from the shoe phone and Cone of Silence to “Would you believe…”—was there from the beginning. Mel Brooks’ absurd Cold War spy parody proves smarter and funnier than expected, though the big question now is whether those wonderfully ridiculous recurring gags will still be funny after four episodes.

Plus, Love Island USA sets a Peacock record, Warner Bros. feels the loss of the NBA, Roku surges ahead of its Fox acquisition, and YouTube raises the bar for monetization.
