More Information

The series centered on bungling secret agent Maxwell Smart (Don Adams), also known as Agent 86. His partner is Agent 99 (Barbara Feldon), whose real name is never revealed. Even after Smart marries her, he continues to address her as "99" because he never actually learns her real name. Smart and 99 work for CONTROL, a secret U.S. government spy agency based in Washington, D.C. (at 123 Main Street). Together, the pair investigate and thwart various threats to the world, though Smart's bungling incompetence invariably causes complications. However, at each story's climax, Smart never fails to save the day, typically thanks to his own dumb luck and 99's skill. Looking on is the long-suffering Chief of CONTROL, played by Edward Platt, who is always addressed as "Chief." Unlike Agent 99, Chief is revealed to have a first name--Thaddeus--on a few occasions. He also has a code letter--Q--which is only mentioned in one episode. The nemesis of CONTROL is KAOS (pronounced chaos), and KAOS's Vice President of Public Relations and Terror, Ludwig Siegfried (Bernie Kopell), shows up often as Maxwell Smart's foe, or would-be assassin. Though on opposite sides, Max and Siegfried click personally, and speak fondly of one another--even when trying to kill each other. Despite being capitalized, CONTROL and KAOS are not acronyms and do not stand for anything. Other characters included Hymie the Robot (Dick Gautier), a powerful android (built originally by KAOS but reprogrammed to work for CONTROL) who tends to take orders too literally; Agent 13 (Dave Ketchum), who is always being stationed inside weird, unlikely places, such as mailboxes, washing machines, lockers, and other objects; Agent 44 (Victor French), who regularly suffers the same fate as Agent 13 (the main difference between them being that while Agent 13 grumbles and rages about his situation, 44 pouts and cries); the Chief's slow-witted assistant Agent Larrabee (Robert Karvelas), the only CONTROL agent known to be more inept and more of a bungler than Max; Siegfried's chief henchman Shtarker (King Moody); and Fang (Agent K-13), a badly-trained CONTROL dog.
