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.
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.
You're welcome. Glad you're enjoying the videos! Stay tuned, as they say--there's a possibility there may be more. YSOS was, right from the start, the best comedy of 50s TV and Caesar and Coca an amazing comedic couple. If there is such a thing as comedy ESP, they had it! --kjh
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. I substitute teach - tell kids about 1950s: milk delivered to the house, doctor house calls, TV repairmen, etc. only 40 miles west of Chicago! They think I'm nuts. The jury is still deliberating.
All so true - tell them about party lines and how fun it was eavesdropping! This one sounds crazy, but our milkman used to come in, open the frig, figure out what we needed and leave it. 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.
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.
It's funny that Sid's long-winded explanation of his complicated, made-up version of poker is so much like his trying to explain how to divide up the money in It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
There are no greats today like Sid Caeser or Carl Reiner. Neither are there the writers. No one to compare. So many greats gone. The world laughs less these days. Thanks for these uploads. Comedy genius that once was.
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.
miggy272009 It must have been truly interesting to work for him. I'm one of the few in my generation who knows about him but his sketches are timeless. I'm sorry you still miss him. He is certainly one to be missed.
@@degsbabe because people who have brains watch things to form an opinion. But you wouldn't know about that because you like or hate things without giving them a chance. Idiot.
Nancy Wirth I'm so glad you found it here, then! :) It's quite an uphill battle to get TH-cam to show users videos on a brand new channel in search results. Lots and lots more rare material to come.
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.
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 TH-cam. ----------------------------------------------- For more rare material like this, please click here to subscribe to the Sid Caesar channel: th-cam.com/channels/aco274Tej4ZhYWflk4B6lw.html
I know date was not available...but any educated guess as to whether this was YSOS or Caesar Hour?...Howie Morris looks soo young, I gotta think maybe YSOS...and didn't Nanette Fabray replace Imogene on Caesar Hour, when Imogene was given her won short lived show?...plus maybe Hickenloopers routine was always on YSOS?,,,,thanks....
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
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....
Hopefully you're still around cos I have a question I'm thinking you may know the answer to! A while back (months? years?) 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!
Very true-- and sadly, a lot of that has to do with his struggles with addiction and personal demons. He completely burned himself out in the 1950s. But we're SO lucky that the majority of his 1950s TV work survives-- though it's all locked up at the Paley Center, for the most part!
I agree totally. Her cleaning lady owes a great deal to one that Coca did on Your Show of Shows. And of course, all those movie parodies, which were a hallmark of YSOS. --kjh

Watching Imogen Coca go off on Caesar reminds me of Carol Burnett doing the angry Eunice. I can see where Burnett might have gotten some ideas from. Funny sketch.
You can see a lot of Your Show of Shows' influence on the Carol Burnett Show. Carol was a great admirer of Sid; when she was starting out in New York, she gave up tickets to a hot Broadway show to see Sid live. And, yes, Imogene influenced her: Carol's Cleaning Lady was "descended" from a Charwoman sketch that Imogene did on YSOS. :) Glad you enjoyed the sketch. --kjh
Sie schwankt zuerst zwischen Angst um ihren Mann und Ärger. Als der Polizist 'friends' sagt geht ihr ein Licht auf. Herrliche Mimik. Danach ist sie nur noch wütend. Wunderbar gespielt, ich lachte Tränen.
Imogene to Hospital ER Intake: Hello? Is this the General Hospital? Well, have you a Charles Hickenlooper in the emergency ward? Are you positive? Well, will you do me a favor? Will you save a bed for him? If he wasn't hurt, I'm going to break every bone in his body!" LMFAO
Well, I hate these kind of comments but I'm going to make it anyway, I'm here because of Mel Brooks. There is an interview of him with Conan O'Brien on youtube where he mentioned how great Sid Ceasar was. I only remember Sid from It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World where I didn't think he was that funny. I wanted to check out some of his other work. This is a funny sketch.
You really have to see Sid at his peak in the 50s, before his alcohol and pill problems overcame him, to appreciate his comedy. You might want to start with some of the film parodies and his pantomimes with Imogene Coca (there was never a better duo at mime). --kjh

I’m curious as to the exact year this aired. From 1945-1969, the United States Senator from Iowa was Bourke B. HICKENLOOPER. His nephew, John Hickenlooper is the current Governor of Colorado.
This was hilarious so funny,reminds me of that time on the honeymooners,when he said he is the and will go club meeting or fishing when he wants we know how that ended,funny,ha,ha,ha!!
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
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
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]

imogene doing the same thing when the cop asks her, "have you tried to contact any of his friends?" 10:31. hilarious.
That's the funniest moment, as far as I'm concerned.
The suppression of live television - truly live television - is very sad.
