 | Ernie Kovacs as Percy Dovetonsils Kovacs was a pioneer of TV comedy in the 1950's, edging closer, I think, to performance art than what people typically think of as comedy. Even with Percy Dovetonsils the comedy is odd, low key, and character generated, even though there is a poetic punch line toward the end. |

 | WC Fields - The Diner Sketch [From "Kovacs Corner" on YouTube.com] - William Claude Dukenfield, known professionally as WC Fields, with his bizarre and iconoclastic sense of humor, certainly influenced Ernie Kovacs. It had been written that when Fields delivered the story outline of this 1941 film, "Never Give a Sucker an Even Break", the suits at Universal Studios thought the film was so surreal that they recut and reshot parts of it. After which they quietly released the film to movie theaters and Fields from his contract. This sketch, featuring character actress Jody Gilbert, gives a new meaning to the term "customer service". [Updated October 16, 2010] I found this in the Wikipedia dictionary... "Gosha" is also the beloved name of "Chuminji", a cute and baby Indian god of good health. He is favourite of pink-rosy cheeked plump kids. Hithero popular with small kids, the god is supposed to be childlike. He is offered "pohe" (an indian dish consisting of flattened rice) and "gulaabjaamuns" (also known as "waffle balls", it a dough consisting mainly of milk solids and flour in a sugar syrup flavored with cardamom seeds and rosewater or saffron) in worship. He rides on a duck and keeps a rabbit as an advisor and a cat as bodyguard. He lives in "Goshdesh". When happy, he blesses anyone with pink skin and plenty of fats, making them look babylike. I can only suppose that he was throwing a thinly vailed comment about the waitress' (Jody Gilbert) large stature? |

 | Vintage David Letterman (1987) - Late Night Thrill-Cam 1 of 3 Late Night with David Letterman late 1987. Letterman does his Top Ten list, "What's Hal Wearing" and the Late Night Thrill-Cam. On part 2 he orders out to a Brazilian Coffee House for some flan. Part 3 is very funny, he has a lady on with her two monkeys. One of the monkeys does not care very much for Letterman and keeps trying to attack him. In parts 2 and 3 there's some 1987 commercials, one of them has Joe Piscopo doing a Miller Light Beer commercial. Late Night with David Letterman was a nightly hour-long comedy talk show on NBC hosted by David Letterman. It premiered in 1982 and went off the air in 1993, after Letterman left NBC and moved to the Late Show on CBS. Late Night with Conan O'Brien then filled the time slot. In 1991, the show's three production companies ? Carson Productions, Worldwide Pants, and NBC Productions ? were awarded a Peabody Award, which cited the following: In the past ten years, one show has moved to the position of the leader in late night television in creativity, humor, and innovation. That program is Late Night With David Letterman. As one member of the Peabody Board remarked, "David Letterman is a born broadcaster." He is also a savvy co-executive producer. Along with co-executive producer Jack Rollins, producer Robert Morton, director Hal Gurnee, and musical director Paul Shaffer, Mr. Letterman has surrounded himself with exceptional talent and given them the go-ahead to experiment with the television medium.
