Comedy

Radio is responsible for some of this century's comic greats. Virtually all major comedy stars over the age of sixty hit the big time on TV or in film only after fulfilling a lengthy apprenticeship in radio. Unfortunately, not all the radio stars managed the transition from radio to TV, so this is a great opportunity to recapture some of the magic moments of comedy that would otherwise be lost to the world forever.
