Some great Sid Caesar sketches

For those unfamiliar with his work on the great comedy series Your Show Of Shows
"From Here To Obscurity" -- A parody of the Oscar winning movie From Here To Eternity. Note Sid's reaction when he gets hit with the water -- to his surprise it's very cold water.
"Gallipacci" -- A spoof of opera. Note Sid's ad lib reaction when he's applying makeup and his pencil breaks.
"This Is Your Story" -- A take-off on the This Is Your Life tribute program
"Argument to Beethoven's 5th" -- Classic pantomime

I'll be quite disappointed if SNL doesn't acknowledge him at their next episode. A quote I read yesterday went something like this: "the man that television created, and he created television, was Sid Caesar." Man created tv sketch comedy.
