Editorial Review:
Description:
Television comedy began with Sid Caesar. Before there was Leno, before there was Carson, Sid ruled the airwaves with the Emmy® Award-winning Your Show of Shows and Caesar's Hour. Now, return to the hilarity and outrageous sketches that had America bursting with laughter throughout the 1950s. With more than three and a half hours of classic sketches from this comedy virtuoso, this three-DVD set is jam-packed with extras that include bonus sketches, interviews with one of television’s foremost comedy-writer lineups, and footage from Sid's 1999 Friar's Club Roast. Travel back to the golden age of comedy and join Sid for 18 of his most remarkable sketches - now digitally restored and better than ever. DVD Features: Exclusive Footage From Sid's 1999 Friar's Club Roast; Interviews with Carl Reiner, Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, and Larry Gelbart; Bonus Sketches: 'Four Englishmen', 'Airplane Movies', and The Silent Movie 'A Rich Man's Joke' (with Charlton Heston); Bonus Musical Sketches: Performances By Benny Goodman and Gene Krupa, 'Nan's Birthday,' and The Haircuts Sing 'Going Crazy'; Side-by-side Comparison of the Restoration Process; Original Playbill; Original Script of 'Progress Hornsby' With Handwritten Notes; Cast and Writer Biographies; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection
