Only a few years before her time spent with our beloved agents/actors Don Adams, Ed Platt, Bernie Kopell, Dick Gautier, etc..., she was a model and a commercial actress. This commercial for Top Brass Dandruff prevention was what people recalled of her early days in acting. Though the commercial is only about a minute long, it may have been the inspiration for her character when writers Mel Brooks and Buck Henry were creating 99.

99 subscriptions! Thank you everyone! And God bless!

Agents 32 and 65

  • Barbara was a very charming guest star on The Man from UNCLE during its first season, and played a part not unlike Agent 99. It was no doubt this role, not the Top Brass commercial, that led to her casting as 99.

  • Actually, in several interviews with Barbara and various creators, this commercial is credited as being what got her the part. I believe if you look up the video that TVLEGENDS has on thier channel, it's mentioned on there as well as in several other interviews. :)

    The character of 99 was certainly not based on this commercial, but it is how she got cast... weird, huh? =)

  • This is great! Agent 32 mentioned that you'd be uploading something to celebrate 99 subscribers... this is perfect! Congrats on the subs and thanks for uploading this! :)

  • Certainly!

  • Somehow Barbera Feldon manages to roll around on lionskin rugs with a beehive hairdoo, a Jackie Kennedy suit, and STILL come off as sexy!

  • Grrrr indeed!

  • I wonder how many spiders could live in that hairdo.

  • Barb also appeared as an UNCLE employee before being cast as 99 on GET SMART.

  • Her career seemed to stall after Get Smart, so one can only assume she was type-cast.

    Too bad...she was absolutely gorgeous!

  • There are a number of 'tiger' references in some Get Smart episodes.

  • If this were a cigarette commercial, you wouldn't be alive because your father would have died of lung cancer at age 11.

  • Does anyone have the 5-Day Deodorant Pads commercial Barbara did a long time ago?

  • Great commercial! I remember when it first aired--I thought Barbara was sexy then!

  • i could have sworn i saw these commercials during get smart airings

  • Rrrr!
