Get Smart (1995)
Missed it by that much!
This is probably best described as a near miss. Reviving an old series is usually a dumb idea, especially when it has to be updated. Putting Max in charge of Control was a nice move, as was making 99 a Congresswoman. But Zach Smart is just like Max was in the 1960s, and Max was still the same. Having two very similar characters without anything to balance them doesn't really work. There was no straight man for Zach to play off, as Max used to do with the Chief. Overall it's mostly enjoyable, but could have been better.
Aaagh! It's the Mr. Hell Show! (2000)
Awesome!
This is one of the funniest animated shows I've ever seen. It's effectively animated sketch comedy, similar in style to the surreal style of Ren & Stimpy. Definately well worth watching, if you have a slightly warped sense of humour like me.
