About Car 54 Where Are You Complete First Season

Car 54 Where Are You Complete First Season Product Description

Car 54 Where Are You, one of the best loved and funniest TV shows of all

time finally comes to DVD for the first time. All 30 episodes of the

Nat Hikenfirst 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 stars Joe E. Ross as Gunther Toody and Fred Gwynne as Francis

Muldoon, a lovably inept squad car team that patrols the Bronx's 53rd

precinct. Muldoon plays the long-suffering voice of reason who invariably

reins in his short stocky partner�s dimwitted schemes and patiently listens

to his hilariously inane prattle. The perfectly cast ensemble of supporting

actors includes Beatrice Pons as Toody�s domineering shrew of a wife, Al

Lewis as the rubber-faced, irascible Officer Leo Schnauser, Charlotte Rae as

Schnauser�s moody, hot-tempered wife and Paul Reed as the perpetually

exasperated captain Block. Each episode was filled out with talent drawn

from New York's pool of seasoned film and TV veterans, borscht belt

comedians and Broadway stage actors, and the first season features

memorable guest star appearances by show biz pros Molly Picon, Wally Cox,

Jan Murray, Maureen Stapleton, Jake La Motta and many more.

The show was the brainchild of Nat Hiken, already famous for his highly

acclaimed Sgt. Bilko show, and many critics feel Car 54, with its quirky

story lines, offbeat characters and hilarious dialogue even surpassed Bilko

as a comic masterpiece. Drawing on his 25 years of writing experience for

top comedy shows on radio and television (Fred Allen, Milton Berle, Martha

Raye), Hiken created a show rich with New York humor and offbeat characters

in scripts that were polished jewels of comedy. Soon television would opt

for more formulaic programming, and Car 54 Where Are You was the last gasp

of an early golden era of New York television.

Specifically shot as a bonus extra for this release is a brand-new

free-wheeling round table conversation between Bronx-raised comedian Robert

Klein and two of the regular cast members --Charlotte Rae, who played Sylvia

Schnauser, and Hank Garrett, who played Officer Ed Nicholson, one of the

cops of the 53rd precinct. Rae and Garrett share stories, anecdotes and

memories with Klein (a fan of Hiken�s work) that shed light on what went on

behind the scenes.
