TIP O' THE HAT SQUAD: DON ADAMS

MISSING HIM BY SO MUCH
I've pulled out my files from the old Tubeworld Dynamic website for April of 2002, when Maxwell Smart and Agent 99 were both inducted into the TV Crossover Hall of Fame, and I will be reprinting some of the articles around the middle of this coming week.

In the meantime, let this list of his contributions to Toobworld stand in tribute to a force of niceness.

Perhaps Sheriff Maxwell Smart? After the fiasco working for PITS, Smart might have taken a job in law enforcement on a local level, until he was accepted back into the folds of CONTROL.
The Nude Bomb (1980) .... Maxwell Smart
Joys (1976) (TV) .... Don Adams
I remember seeing this, but as to whether or not he was appearing as himself or as Maxwell Smart..... I think my brain mercifully wiped the slate clean.
"The Bill Dana Show" (1963) TV Series .... Byron Glick
It's always been my contention that Byron and Maxwell were cousins, identical cousin.

INSPECTOR GADGET
Inspector Gadget (1999) (voice) .... Brain
These were two different Inspector Gadgets. There was the one from the Tooniverse, and then the live-action figure in the Cineverse, which had no connection other than as an alternative version.
Inspector Gadget: Gadget's Greatest Gadgets (1999) (V) .... Inspector Gadget

PRINCIPAL HICKEY
"Pepper Ann" (1997) TV Series (voice) .... Principal Hickey
"Nick Freno: Licensed Teacher" playing "Principal" in episode: "Gargoyle Guys" (episode # 1.13) 8 January 1997
These two school principals are the same man, but in two different TV dimensions.

THE LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES
"Empty Nest" playing "Himself" in episode: "Charley's Millions" (episode # 6.20) 8 March 1994

"Wait Till Your Father Gets Home" playing "Himself" (voice) in episode: "Don for the Defense" 1973
Along the same lines as with Principal Hickey, there is the tele-version of Don Adams in the main Toobworld, who also hosted 'Screen Test', and then there's the pen-and-ink version from the Tooniverse.
