The Get Smart! Files

This book is a retrospective look at the television show "Get Smart". It is presented as part of a series of books from the "Files Magazine". There are black and white photographs, as well as lesser quality screenshots, and scans of various publicity photos, and behind the scenes images. It details the premise of the show, and what made it stand out from other similar shows, and then describes the various characters. It discusses the various gadget spy devices, then gives a list of what the author thinks are the shows 22 best episodes. It tells the episode number, lists the special guest cast for that episode, and then explains the episodes plot. There are also occasional facts scattered here and there throughout this section. The book has two interviews, the first is with Dick Gautier, the actor that played Hymie the Robot, the second is of Don Adams, the actor that played Maxwell Smart, this interview was conducted by Stephen Cox. The author writes two personal pieces at the beginning and at the ending, the first telling how he came to enjoy the show, and in the second he writes about the creation of the book, and his thoughts on why the show is still popular after all these years. The last few pages are advertisements for other "Files Magazine" books. There is no copyright year, but some sites list it as being from 1987. It originally cost $6.95 in the USA, and $10.49 in Canada.
