Throwback Thursday Comedy Special: Sid Caesar as the Professor on Magic

Sid Caesar left a treasure trove of  video clips of some of his funniest character portrayals and skits from his own Your Show of Shows and Caesar's Hour and from his appearances with sidekick Carl Reiner on the Ed Sullivan Show and other TV specials.

We've already run some of his most famous comedy routines and we'll be tapping into the collection for more of them from time to time.

Today we're visiting once again with one of Sid's most endearing characters, the wisecracking and loopy Viennese  professor Hocus VonPocus, interviewed by the persistent and straight-talking Carl Reiner.

In this video Reiner asks the professor to perform some magic, with hilarious results.
Enjoy!
