This was not meant for general release to the viewing public I assume. Yes?

[musicom67]

Affirmative.

[HomeoftheGoodGuys]

Are they're any promos for Disney's "Wonderful World of Color" during the film?

[musicom67]

If I'm not mistaken, that was an ABC Show... It was the "Wonderful World of Disney" which was on NBC in the 70s....

This just doesn't get any better. Wish shows/promos were like this today. We

think too much today to get this today.

7:18 when Don Adams (as Maxwell Smart) snaps his fingers, the Laramie Peacock music plays.

@musicom67 Wonderful World of Color started on NBC in 1961

[byrd56]

@musicom67 When the Disney show premiered on ABC in 1955, it was called "Disneyland", then "Walt Disney Presents". In 1961, when it moved to NBC, it was renamed "Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color", then renamed "Wonderful World of Disney" in 1969, three years after Walt's passing.

NBC was ahead of the curve as the network that pioneered color TV, unlike ABC, due to its resources and "third network" status.

the first cell phone seems to been a shoe.

Please turn off all shoe phones before the concert begins.

I've discovered the name and origin of the "symphonic" piece used at the beginning: even though a different orchestral piece was used in the "GET SMART" pilot that finally aired, the one heard at :23 is the climax of "American In Hungary", and sounds exactly like a 1958 recording [of European origin, no doubt] released on a "bargain label" called "Acorn" in 1959, credited to "John Johnson and His Orchestra" .

This was from when I was in third grade. Some of these shows haven't been seen in years. It was nothing but good clean fun. No reality shows. No violent crime shows like CSI New York or CSI Miami.

You can also say that Don Adams had the first cellphone. And of course back i1965, there was no such thing as cellphones.

[fromthesidelines]

Yes, this WAS seen on NBC, 'musicom'- Monday, September 6, 1965 at 7:30pm(et), a week before the new season began. A newspaper ad promoting this special on the TV page of the NEW YORK TIMES the evening it aired confirms it. In 1965, "WALT DISNEY'S WONDERFUL WORLD OF COLOR" was on the network's Sunday night schedule (it got a VERY brief mention at the end).

A lot!! Today's garbage can't compare with yesterday's classics.
