Gadzooks!  How did I miss this?  He died five days ago.  Why wasn't I informed?

He was one of my earliest favorite TV stars.  My family gathered each week to watch his shows.  I'll never forget how my father would laugh so hard that he'd have a coughing fit.  It happened every week.

Rest in peace, Sid Caesar, and thank you for so many wonderful hours of humor.

I didn't even know he passed away until I seen your post. The only one I heard about was the dad from the walton's.

He was great. He and Milton Berle and Ernie Kovacs invented prime time TV comedy.
