Don Adams dies, Aged 82

The man and voice behind two of TV's most memorable and lovable characters. Tis a sad day indeed.

Yup, the voice of Inspector Gadget, and Tennessee Tuxedo has died.

thats a shame
I am a big fan of Get Smart

I remember my grandpa used to like Inspector Gadget because Don Adams did the voice, and he (my grandfather) used to say "wowzers" all the time. I always thought that was cool when I was a kid. I think I should work that word into my regular vocabulary.

Another Icon from my childhood passes into eternity. Thanks for all the laughs Don. I really enjoyed Get Smart as a Kid. You were always agent 86 to me.

Never heard of Tennesse Tuxedo, but remember Inspector Gadget quite well. Tis a shame when someone dies, then again no one can live forever.

Should be good to know he'll be remembered.

Sadness... He'll be missed. I know I miss watching Get Smart...

Jeremy Lindstrom · Sep 2005

Yeah, I remember the movie.. Get Smart.. The nude bomb..

Don't forget about his regular appearances on Scooby Doo

To be honest, I thought he was already dead

Still sad to hear though.
