->Played by: William Schallert

->Played by: Dick Gautier, Creator/PatrickWarburton in Film/GetSmart (2008 movie)

** Participated in the Battle of El Alamein, where he was the first man out (this is mentioned twice--first, that he left with Straker [explicitly stated to be an ex-Nazi], second, that he tunneled out of the city before the battle, implying he was either a civilian or an incredibly cowardly soldier).

* FreudianExcuse: Parodied when he once claims he only turned evil because his mother never bought him a sled!

* HotScientist: As a scientist who moonlights as a showgirl, this is inevitable.

* PlayingGertrude: Edward Platt was at least ten years younger than the Chief was meant to be. He was 49 when the show started but the Chief's career spans back to the 1930s which would put him somewhere in his sixties.

->Played by: William Schallert

* TheDitz: Downplayed. Definitely dimmer than Siegfried, but not nearly as dumb as Max or Larabee.

* BaldOfAwesome: He's bald and is the head of a secret organization.

* {{Mondegreen}}: Enough viewers misheard "Count von Siegfried" as "Conrad Siegfried" that ''Get Smart, Again!'' simply [[AscendedFanon made it his actual first name]]. (In "The Not-So-Great Escape," he was introduced as "Ludwig von Siegfried," but Max stated in "Spy, Spy Birdie" last season that Ludwig is Siegfried's code name, so it doesn't count as a RetCon.)

* AccidentalMisnaming: Max thinks that his name said with a speech impediment is his actual name.

->'Played by: Creator/DonAdams (TV Series), Creator/SteveCarell in Film/GetSmart (2008 movie)

* ButtMonkey: He's often on the butt end of Max's shenanigans and has been the victim on occasion such as when he was shot in "A Man Called Smart" and when he was tranquilized in "Operation Ridiculous".

%%* BattleCouple: With 99.

%%* TheCastShowOff: His Humphrey Bogart impression.

%%* CluelessDetective
%%* ComedicHero

%%* DeadpanSnarker

%%* DoggedNiceGuy

%%* {{Adorkable}}

Siegfried's enthusiastic assistant. Unfortunately for Siegfried, he's also incredibly childish and dumb, prone to making silly noises when he isn't just goofing up.
