Brilliant Show!
"This show was indeed brilliant comedic genius and perhaps ahead of its time. Sketches were done improv style with minimal use of costumes and props which perhaps viewers failed to understand...."
💡 Did You Know?
NBC wanted to fire Dan Sorkin but Newhart refused. Newhart felt indebted to Sorkin because it was Sorkin who recommended Newhart to Warner Brothers Records which launched his comedy career.
