While true, I'm wasn't sure that many younger Forum members would "get" Mregor's Get Smart reference to, "Ahh, the old ...", without some "boomer splaining".
However, I did initially forget about the 2008 Get Smart movie with Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway that included Maxwell Smart's "The old "Call Forwarding From the Shoe phone to the Cell phone so you don't know Where I am and then I appear on the Roof behind you and Surprise everyone" trick".
Many long-lived, funny, catch phrases came out of the original television show, unfortunately probably not long-lived enough to survive the eventual demise of the boomers, but reruns could possibly keep these catch phrases alive for continued enjoyment by additional generations.
