‘Caesar’s Hour’…1954-57

‘Caesar’s Hour’…1954-57

After ‘Your Show Of Shows’ ended it’s four year run, Imogene Coca was offered her own show…a half hour on NBC that ran from 1954-1955. Sid Caesar replaced Coca with Nanette Fabray. The already great writing staff including Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner added Woody Allen and Larry Glebarth. “The Commuters” was a sketch that appeared often and pictured below is a 1956 edition of that sketch with Caesar, Reiner and Howard Morris, all done live weekly from The Majestic Theater.
