Nice read. For me, there's the Monty Python gang, the Marx Brothers and Mel Brooks at the top of the show biz comedy ladder.

It is unbelievable the amount of talent that Sid Caesar's Show of Shows produced. I have seen clips of that show, it holds up and is still hysterical.

When I was a kid (I'm older than you btw.. ha ha) Sid's show was my dad's favorite so I watched a ton of it. That along with Sgt Bilko (Phil Silvers), Jackie Gleason and Red Skelton to name a few.

Don't scare me like that! I thought he had passed when I saw the thread. I suppose I should prepare myself for that day. He IS 92 after all!

I was guessing that, too. Kind of out of the blue reference to him, and with his age, would lead one to assume.

No worries. It was an enjoyable article. Maybe just change the thread title to Mel Brooks Article.
yeah me too. I'm changing the title.
