Description
'Car 54 Where Are You?', from the same comic genius who wrote The Phil Silvers Show (Sergeant Bilko), comes to DVD for the first time.
Car 54 Where Are You?, one of the best loved and funniest TV series of all time finally comes to DVD for the first time. All 30 episodes of the first season (1961-62) are included in a set of 4 DVDs, each newly remastered from the only known set of 35 mm fine grain prints.
The show was the brainchild of Nat Hiken, already famous for his highly acclaimed Phil Silvers Show (Sgt. Bilko), and many critics feel Car 54, with its quirky story lines, offbeat characters and hilarious dialogue even surpassed Bilko as a comic masterpiece.
The show stars Joe E. Ross as Gunther Toody and Fred Gwynne as Francis Muldoon, a lovably inept squad car team that patrols New York's Bronx district.
Specifically shot as a bonus for this release is a 30 minute round table conversation between comedian Robert Klein and cast members Charlotte Rae (Sylvia Schnauser) and Hank Garrett (Officer Ed Nicholson).
