I'm 40 years old and I just stumbled upon sid caesar almost a year ago because I love Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks.I love this show!!
Everyone dressed up just to go out to a movie
No dirty talk. So hateful politics. Just funny! Insightful.
That was a great sketch -- probably my favorite non-Hickenloopers sketch that I've seen so far! :-D Of course, nowadays, the question would have been resolved a lot sooner by someone just looking it up on their smartphone... ;)
It was a simpler time!--even if the Victors had a set of encyclopedias (remember those?), it probably wouldn't have helped. :) --kjh
Of course I "remember" encyclopedias! Have you forgotten my profession? ;)
And for the record I remembered "Bashful," too! :) (He is always the hardest one to remember, though, because his name doesn't end in "y." Neither does "Doc," of course, but somehow that's easier to remember -- perhaps because he is a more important character in the story.)
A lot of great drama and great comedy of the 20th century would have been utterly ruined if the internet and/or cell phones had been invented sooner! [wgw]
Especially comedy situations which are based on "quid pro quo"/wacky mix-ups due to lack of communication! ;)
John: this is a disney sketch.
Ha ha ha!!! There was no Weepy! The seven dwarves are Doc, Dopey, Sneezy, Sleepy, Happy, Grumpy, and BASHFUL!!!!
Really funny!
100 bucks was in 1956 a lot of money. I know that could have exceeded monthly rent on an a decent apartment. 100/week was a comfortable wage. Note that they all could have had a nice dinner at the restaurant that someone said was closed on Mondays for the 100. But a story that struck me was some payroll robbery in the 1950s yielded more money than they had anticipated and the gang decided that each would take 100k and to avoid detection or something, they would burn the rest of the money. They could not imagine what to do with more than 100k each. Of course houses could be bought for 5 or 10 thousand dollars. BTW, I think Mel Brooks as a writer for Caesar was making 40 bucks a week when he started out in the late 1940s or early 1950s. He may have said his rent was 40 bucks a month.
great sketch. Today the sketch would last 5 seconds all they would have to do is go on wikipedia or google.
Doc and Bashful.
Well...... welcome back, Mr. Caesar and gang. Where have you been all these months?
PS. Maria Riva is Marlene Dietrich's daughter. Also, the Ben-Hur reference is obviously the silent version - Heston's version had not yet been made!
Summer hiatus. :) Hope you've had a chance to check out "On the Docks," one of the best, IMHO, sketches on Caesar's Hour. --kjh
Nice! Was Deitrick involved with the show somehow?
@@vincentconti3633 Not that I know of. Maria Riva, Dietrich's daughter, appeared on many TV shows in the '50's, and was actually in at least one Sid Caesar sketch. It's a great sketch which is a spoof of prison movies. Here's a RUclips link to the sketch. I hope you will like it, and again the girl is Maria Riva! BTW she's still alive!

@@epsteinisms1483omg, that was Deitrich's daughter?! She reminded me a little of Catherine O'Hara of SCTV. But I know that sketch was before Catherine's time.
The audience seems to not have gotten the laugh when Sid says "oh, you want to go OUT OF the house!" (paraphrasing)!
Pretty funny skit from Sid's second series. Too bad Imogene Coca didn't come along with the rest of the gang (tho Nanette Fabrey is no slouch either in the comedy department).
Best sitcom ever …..
If there was no Sid Caesar, or Bugs Bunny, there would have been no Jerry Lewis. Dean Martin, his partner, had his own style, he was more original.
Sid, a comedic genius. Not Reiner.
Carl Reiner was great. The straight men don't get enough credit.
