This review is from: The Best of Sid Caesar (DVD)
This is a great DVD. The skits are from start to finish, not just a few seconds. When you see the list of writers from this show, you will be shocked. This was real TV, not reality TV.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny old time TV, January 6, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Best of Sid Caesar (DVD)
This is a great show for the older people who remember those old Sid Caesar comedies and a blast for the younger generations of viewers. The satire of Ralph Edwards' "This is Your Life" was one of the funniest skits ever.
