Laugh Loudly and Carry a Big Shtick

with Meish Goldish

Since the dawn of television, there have been many popular comedy variety shows on the air, including The Milton Berle Show, The Sid Caesar Comedy Hour, The Carol Burnett Show, Second City Television, and Saturday Night Live (now in its 50th year!). Each show featured either a cast of regulars or guest celebrities who performed in humorous skits. Meish is back with more hilarious short episodes to show us in 2 different sessions. Discussion questions will follow: What makes each skit funny? Is it the writing, the acting, or both? If a skit is decades old, would it still be considered politically correct to televise today? Meish is the author of Oy Vey! A Yiddish Coloring Book?
