View Full Version : Besides GS... ClassicTVGal 03-08-2008, 12:05 AM What else have you guys seen the stars in besides Get Smart? ph1l 03-08-2008, 03:06 AM On TV I remember Ed Platt in a movie a while back called "Atlantis, the Lost Continent, and Bernie Kopell in Bewitched and the Love Boat. Barbara Feldon in a Man from Uncle tape I bought (because she was on the cover:) ) in the episode "the Never, Never Affair", Apart from that I don't recall too much else. treky 03-08-2008, 03:51 AM now that I think about it; not much else. I remember Bernie Koppel was a regular on "THE LOVE BOAT", years ago I remember seeing Barbara Feldon in a commercial for the United Way or something, I remember in the 80s Don Adams starred in a sydnicated sitcom called "CHECKIN' OUT" or something, and I also remember he had a short-lived series in the 70s called "DON ADAMS SCREEN TEST", and in a series of commercials in the 70s for games by a company called Aurora. Oh yea; and I remember seeing Barbara Feldon guest star on "CHEERS" once in the early 90s, as an old girlfriend of Sams. And I've seen Bernie Koppel in some movies and TV shows over the years. Zoneboy 03-08-2008, 04:03 AM Bernie Kopell and Richard Gautier both starred in the short-lived ABC series When Things were Rotten Ed Platt can be seen in the Twilight Zone episode A Hundred Yards Over the Rim Mikado 03-08-2008, 05:35 PM Well, most of mine were taken but, I'll add that in the 70s Barb became the Queen of the TV movies fad, and did several of them; Ed Platt's most famous role (other than GS) was in "Rebel Without a Cause" as the sympathetic cop who tried in vain to help the main character get his life together. I loved Screen Test, Checkin' Out on the other hand was no great shakes...it was a CTV sitcom, and was mediocre at best Ireneparalegal 03-08-2008, 06:46 PM I have a DVD with one episode of Don Adam's SCREEN TEST. I loved that show! Also, I liked this movie with Barbara Feldon called VACATION FROM HELL. It also had Maureen McCormick (Marcia Brady, The Brady Bunch) and it also had the actress who played Teri on Three's Company. Bernie of course from THE LOVE BOAT. ClassicTVGal 03-08-2008, 08:59 PM Also, I liked this movie with Barbara Feldon called VACATION FROM HELL. It also had Maureen McCormick (Marcia Brady, The Brady Bunch) and it also had the actress who played Teri on Three's Company. (Yeah, that's Prisilla Barnes) Ironically that was the first title I chose for this to see if anyone had seen it. But decided to change it to something with all the cast. Is it a good movie? I mean Ms. Feldon's part? I know she's said she didn't like her role in the movie she did with Barbara Eden. And Mikado, it's okay you can list things that have already been mentioned. That was part of the thread what you had seen. I have seen some commercials with Don, preview/theme opening for his show Check It Out and I now own the Disney movie Barbara starred in from 1976 called: No Deposit, No Return. (A very cute movie with even some little things that remind me of GS, haha) Also a couple little guest appearances with D/B. Other than those I can't think of anything else at the moment. What was DA's ST like? What was it about exactly? I keep hearing how good it was.

Her name escaped me for a moment, which is a shocker considering TC is one of my all-time fave shows. :lol: Let me add I also seen Bernie in Hogan's Heroes. As for the movie A VACATION FROM HELL, I liked it. But I was young back then, I was 14. It was crazy how these people were on some vacation and they either got separated from their group or they took some hike somewhere and got lost. They tried to make their way out of there. The end of the movie showed the women finally finding their way to civilization, they walk to some outdoor shower where all these tourists are hanging out, and start cleaning themselves and drinking the water. The tourists just look at them like, "What the hell?" :lol: Don Adams' Screen Test was a game show where two people were chosen to act in a small snippet of a movie on a stage/set. You see basically how a movie is made. It was only 30 minutes. Here is a description of that program that I found on a website: The syndicated game show Don Adams' Screen Test ran for 26 episodes in 1974 and 1975. Contestants appeared in staged scenes from classic films such as From Here to Eternity, On The Waterfront, and The African Queen, putting up with the intentionally schlocky production values in hopes of being chosen by a participating director for a tiny role in a real production. Helping the former Get Smart star and his Hollywood hopefuls with the scenes were such real-life actors and actresses as Bob Newhart, Phyllis Diller, Mel Brooks and Milton Berle. ^^^^You would see these people being directed on how to act, what to do, all the while the cameras were rolling. At the end, you would see their movie snippet and it looked great. You would see how they made the scene look real. For example there was a movie scene being filmed as if the people were out in the ocean, but in fact, they were in a large vat of water. After the filming and editing was done, you could see how they made it look so real. Basically you learned how the movies were really being made.

Mikado 03-09-2008, 01:00 AM I absolutely loved that show. Don Adams did a series of commercials for a Canadian line of Hotels (as Maxwell Smart) in the late 90s, where hed pop up out of a suitcase a la agent 13....I wanted to tape them, but, never managed to :( ClassicTVGal 03-09-2008, 09:01 PM I absolutely loved that show. Don Adams did a series of commercials for a Canadian line of Hotels (as Maxwell Smart) in the late 90s, where hed pop up out of a suitcase a la agent 13....I wanted to tape them, but, never managed to :( There are quite a dozen of Don's commercials on the DVD Collection. White Castle, Chief Auto Parts, Pepsodent, one or two for choice hotels (or something) and those "1-800" stuff. I think that's it... It'd been cute to see the one he did for McDonalds on there. (It's on YouTube) And all the other ads like the Electronic Detective the Skittles thing and even some of Barbara's other stuff besides the "tiger" commercials. [Top Brass] I have seen three of those, actually. According to a commentary thing I watched/heard last night, she seems to enjoy doing commercials. (I'd love to see a list of her 'voice-over' work) Someone posted on imdb.com they thought she does the RLS (restless leg syndrome) commercial (well one of them) and I did see it again a little while back and it sounds kinda like her and my mother thought so too, but I'm still in doubt, lol. Mikado 03-12-2008, 12:29 AM Don Adams (as Maxwell Smart) for: BUCK-A-CALL (A Canadian long distance service that seemed to go out of business before the call was over) ClassicTVGal 03-12-2008, 02:16 AM Oh yeah, that one is on the DVD Set! Mikado 03-12-2008, 03:00 AM Those ads ran for about 3-4 months, then I never heard from B-A-C again Carrie 03-13-2008, 10:36 AM Ed Platt was in an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show called "A Nice, Friendly Game of Cards." He was kind of a grouch in it and took his poker very seriously, lol. ClassicTVGal 03-13-2008, 11:37 AM Ed Platt was in an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show called "A Nice, Friendly Game of Cards." He was kind of a grouch in it and took his poker very seriously, lol. Oh cool. I'd totally forgotten about that. I've probably seen that one. There's one where they end up playing with Ritichie's marked cards, is that one it? (I can't remember and I'm usually good at this, lol) Carrie 03-13-2008, 03:45 PM Yep, that's the one! ClassicTVGal 03-14-2008, 12:08 AM Yep, that's the one! :) I remember that one. Now I have to try and see it just to see "The Cheif"! (lol) Carrie 03-14-2008, 08:47 AM Here's a screen capture from the episode. :) Mikado 03-14-2008, 04:11 PM Geez, he thinks he's yelling at Max :lol: Carrie 03-14-2008, 04:23 PM LOL! :lol: ClassicTVGal 03-14-2008, 08:29 PM Thanks Carrie! (lol, yeah!) Carrie 03-15-2008, 08:52 AM You're welcome. :) |
