I loved the television series Get Smart back in the day. I just finished watching the modern film based upon it and have to admit that, as stupid as it was, I laughed all the way through.
Sometimes a bit of stupidity is exactly what you need.

yeah Don Adams was great, and to be honest anything written by Mel Brooks is a winner (Blazing Saddles just cracks me up every time, no matter how many times I have seen it before)

I agree Mason. Sometimes after working long hours we get/act a little stupid. Just a way of dealing with the stess.

Yeah, 99 was hot, Blazing Saddles is a hilarious classic, and Space Balls is, well, Space Balls. OK, as much as I hate to admit it, Space Balls is funny.

Young Frankenstein edges Blazing Saddles ever so slightly, in my book.

That's exactly what my grandmother used to say when she watched Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In.

This sting seems to have morphed into a Mel Brooks admiration of stupidity string so....

We can't forget a family favorite around here:

Robinhood Men in Tights

RT: Men in Tights is one of my two favorite movies of all time - the other being Princess Bride - and Mel Brooks's sudden musical interludes are always worth it. :D

I think Mel Brooks was one of the creators of Get Smart as well.

Those are truly funny. Especially Mel Brooks films. My favorite feel good films when I need a laugh are Roxanne, with Steve Martin, and Major League. I never Laughed as hard during a movie as I did during Major League.

Well, I am pleased to find that I am not the only Mel Brooks fan here.
