Best of Sid Caesar Directed by Max Liebman & Nat Hiken, 1995

Return to the golden age of comedy with the legendary Sid Caesar!

Before there was Leno, or even Carson, television comedy began with Sid Caesar. Called comedic “royalty” (USA Today) Sid’s Emmy^®-winning Your Show of Shows and Caesar’s Hour invented “a hipper style of TV comedy that influenced everything up to and including Saturday Night Live” (TV Guide).

Turn back the clock and join Sid for eight of his most memorable and remarkable sketches plus extras that include bonus sketches, interviews with one of the most impressive comedy-writer lineups television has ever known (including Mel Brooks and Woody Allen).

Return to the golden age of comedy that shaped a half century of laughter with THE BEST OF SID CAESAR.
