Bumbling, clueless t rump has risen despite all of his glaring problems, words and actions he is starting to drive me crazy, I mean WTH?

She had a tough job on that comedy. She had to play second fiddle to someone who was very good at what he did.

However, if you happen to be older, as I am, and are familiar with the series there is an extra level of mocking based on knowing the Maxwell Smart character that just is icing on the cake.

(26,698 posts)There was some amazingly clever writing "a few years back"
The Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock and Outer Limits episodes were epic.
Compare watching re-runs of them with doomscrolling absolute meaningless crap for hours on end.
And besides, fascists want to obliterate history (Does the name Steve Bannon sound familiar? ) because it exposes their constant replay of the fascist playbook.
Better you think that their racism, misogyny and ethnic purity is like

Who can forget Gavin Newsom as the Captain?
