This entertaining "pledge week" effort from PBS not only culls precious film clips from Sid Caesar's classic 1950s TV variety series Your Show of Shows, but also features some long-unseen vignettes from Caesar's first TV effort, The Admiral Broadway Revue, and his later weekly offering, Caesar's Hour. The comedian's former writers -- Mel Brooks, Larry Gelbart, Neil Simon, and Woody Allen -- discuss their experiences while working with the mercurial but brilliant Caesar, and also attempt to assess that brilliance. Also offering reminiscences is Sid Caesar himself, along with his co-stars Carl Reiner, Howard Morris, and Nanette Fabray (Imogene Coca was too ill to participate in this project). An abbreviated amalgam of two three-volume retrospective videos released in 2000, Sid Caesar Collection was telecast in most American markets during the first two weeks of August 2002.
