THEORIES OF RELATEEVEETY - HEEEEEERE'S JOHNNY!


'GET SMART'
"ABOARD THE ORIENT EXPRESS"
"THE KING LIVES?"


'Get Smart' was known for the celebrity cameos - from Bob Hope, Milton Berle, Buddy Hackett, Robert Culp, Don Rickles and James Caan, among many others.

The King of NBC and of late-night TV, Johnny Carson, appeared twice on the show as two separate characters.  His role as the Herald in the court of King Charles of Caronia provided a blooper reel that was often shown not only on the 'Tonight' show but on several blooper specials.

 

He was first seen as the Conductor on board the Orient Express as the train passed through Lichtenstein (so quickly!)  And it will be our claim that despite having an American accent, the Conductor was a Caronian.  It is his twin brother who served as the Herald in the royal court.

BCnU!
