Maxwell Smart and Ninety-Nine

Maxwell Smart and wisest Ninety-nine.
One is a boob, the other just fine.
1960’s fun,
Always on the run.
One is logical, other a whine.

Congrats on your win, Caren. Of the shows he gave us to write about, this was my least favorite when I was growing up. Did you like this show a lot?

I loved 99, and the fact that she was insanely smart, and he was such a numbskull.

Michelle, I think Maxwell Smart is good enough for at least six limericks! Go for it!
