Television changed the way America laughed, and its comedy-variety shows launched new performers into orbits of fame and fortune. The powerful new medium showcased the brilliant comedic talents of Sid Caesar, Red Skelton, Milton Berle, Jack Benny, Jackie Gleason, and Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis. Television also introduced the situation comedy featuring Lucille Ball, George Burns and Gracie Allen. Tune in to a time when most of the laughs were live - and sometimes unplanned.
