Just read on the AP wire that Don Adams died of a lung infection.

'The Nude Bomb" was one of my favorite movies growing up!

Man, I loved that show when I was a kid. Always felt sorry for Adams being reduced to starring in that rotten Canadian sitcom "Checkin' Out" - but work is work, I guess.

RIP 86.

Check It Out was outright garbage, but I always caught the episode before Double Trouble on the older, friendlier USA Network.

Get Smart is still pretty good. Rippin'.

It seems that Get Smart will be released on DVD in 2006.
