    It's amazing to see early television skits that were so incredibly polished and well timed given how new the technology was. Imogene's slow burn scene in the police station is just perfection. And, wow, the two and a half kings line is genius, as is Sid's face at the end.

    It's really interesting to watch this. So many instances where they didn't go for the obvious joke, but kept you guessing about what was coming next. At the end, you never even found out what the wife was doing where the husband didn't show up. That would've definitely been part of the "joke" in today's comedy world. In this, the laughs were continuous and about so much more than the premise.

    My deepest gratitude to you and KJH for sharing these tapes. I was just a little bitty kid when these shows were aired way past my bedtime. I never saw any of Sid Caesar's work till Ten from Your Show of Shows was released, and it just wasn't enough. I wanted more of him and the remarkable Ms Coca, whose work I knew from her sitcoms. The expression on her face that starts at 10:56 is priceless - I've never seen anything like it. Thanks again.

    I loved this stuff as a little kid in the 1950s. It still holds up and makes me laugh. As a kid, I loved Sid's faces. I used to make them all the time even though my dear aunt said my face would stay that way if I persisted! She was right! Still making faces at age 69! Love you, Aunt Eleanor. And thank you Mom and Dad for tuning in this show every week on our 12-inch, black and white RCA which sometimes required a TV repairman to replace tubes! I thought he was gonna get electrocuted. Me, too. Those were the days, my friend.

Once in a while Mom had to tape a note that said stuff like, "Pajama party Friday w/ 6 eight yr old girls" and he'd add that into his equation.

    Today's post to the Sid Caesar channel:
    Sid Caesar and Imogene Coca as the Hickenloopers in a sketch that hasn't been accessible publicly for well over 20 years. "The Simpsons" did an episode with a very similar premise 40 years later, where Homer forgets to pick up Bart up from a soccer game.
    Also featuring Carl Reiner and Howard Morris.
    NOTE: No date is available for this sketch, which has only been released on very rare out of print VHS/Betamax tapes. My undying gratitude to KJH, the uber-fan of Sid Caesar in Pennsylvania who found these tapes, had them transferred digitally, and shared them with me so that I could make them available on UA-cam.

      @sidcaesaryourshowofshowsca2250  7 років тому

      daniel lack This is from YSOS, and, yes, the Hickenlooper sketches were also from that show. The sketches on Caesar's Hour that featured Sid and Nanette were "The Commuters," in which they move from the city to the suburbs. One interesting take: they were trying to get away from the very urban emphasis on YSOS in light of a wider (in geographical terms) viewing audience. --kjh

    • @daniellack3559
      @daniellack3559 7 років тому

      Excellent info!...I am almost positive, that Carl Reiner who of course was an intergral part of all of Sid's early programs and success, deliberately had Rob and Laura Petrie live in New Rochelle in the fabled Dick Van Dyke show just as Carl himself had moved during his work on Sids programs..hence the suburban angle ..and an awful ot of the show was based on Carl's own life and work. on YSOS and Caesars Hour....

I was on youtube watching a multitude of Sid videos and saw one where Carl and Howard (I think?) were in a bedroom (?) with Sid who had his head bandaged and the other two ended up ripping his clothes off for whatever reason. I have yet to find that sketch again and it's driving me crazy. Would you happen to know what show it was from and if it's still online anywhere? Obviously my haziness of the whole thing makes it hard to search for, lol! I've rewatched almost everything but maybe it's inside a sketch I haven't completely watched again. Also, thanks for the awesome channel!

    When you watch young, young Howard Morris in these shows and see him in say "Lethal Women" on Boris Karloff's Thriller videos, you can see what a superb actor he came to be. He also trained physically over the years and transformed himself athletically, although you can see how loose and limber he is in scenes this early. Later on, he was almost a gymnast. Wonderful Ernest T. Bass: he practically created that character himself. Wish they'd release the show he did under Hitchcock's direction.

      Netflix has a terrific documentary called "When Jews were Funny" It's not all jokes rather it is interviews with many jewish comedians. What I think you will find is that when Jews were children of immigrants they were funny. Now that they have assimilated the new funny, if you can call it that, is those who are children of immigrants or other marginalized parts of America's "white" society. I grew up with the Jewish comedians so to me the new funny isn't as funny. I'm sure it is, just not to me.

      I don't know his name offhand, but he was one of the regular singers/dancers who often appeared in sketches when they needed an extra actor. If you see enough sketches, you get to know their faces, if not their names! ---kjh

      A show that wasn't doing political satire. Shows that DO political satire are going to satirize the president, no matter who the president is, as SNL has for every single president in the history of its run. [wgw]

      There were a number of stock dancers and singers who showed up occasionally as "extras" in sketches, who might have a few lines of dialogue or none at all. I'm pretty sure the same guy was in "Prison Walls." Unfortunately, I don't ever recall seeing his name in any caption of a still shot from a sketch he was in. ---kjh
