When You Hear Talk About Talent and Classic TV This is What They Mean..

I found this video from a comment by rhhardin over at this post at Theospark.


First of all this is just talent to come up with a skit like this...

They don't make TV like this anymore.


Secondly... Maybe this scenario was actual reason behind Ludwig van Beethoven writing his

5th symphony  back in the early 1800's?


Here, on live TV, without benefit of editing or retakes, Sid Caesar and Nanette Fabray silently mime a domestic dispute whose crescendos and valleys perfectly correspond to classical music.

  1. Sid Caesar and a lot of the early TV greats started out in vaudeville acts. Perfecting their craft in front of a live audience on stage. Some of greats made the transfer, so many more didn't.
