Personal Fact of Sid Caesar
Through his nonsensical, yet clever and anarchic comedy, Sid Caesar won the hearts of a million American television viewers during the 1950s. With more emphasis on facial expressions, accents and body language, he set a new genre of comedy, unlike the universal dialogue-filled comedy and standup material, thus being considered a sketch comic actor - something unique and unlikely during that era.
His double-talking act, using illogical utterances in different dialects, was an unbelievable talent that won the hearts of one and all. Best remembered for his live tele-series Your Show of Shows, followed by Caesar’s Hour, which was a combo of musical revues, sketches and situation comedy, he changed the course of television and extracted the best out of comedy.
This comedy titan was honored through several awards and honors for his over-60 year career dedicated to movies and TV. It was through his two whirlwind shows that writers and performers, like Carl Reiner, Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, Larry Gelbart, Lucille Kallen, Imogene Coca and others took his comic agenda to places and across the world. His mimicry and comic timing was often compared to the likes of Charlie Chaplin.
