Title: The Phil Silvers Show. Post by: herthab on Friday, January 16, 2009, 20:33:51 Just got the 50th anniversary boxed set. 18 episodes of Sgt Bilko (The funny tv series, not the shite film) and loads of extras.
I fucking love Sgt Bilko! Title: Re: The Phil Silvers Show. Post by: Rich Pullen on Friday, January 16, 2009, 20:36:00 Likewise. I've mentioned it's genius on here a few times, it's got it's own thread - hooray!
Title: Re: The Phil Silvers Show. Post by: herthab on Friday, January 16, 2009, 20:51:20 Some comedies from the 50's are well past their sell by date, but Bilko is timeless. I really think it's one of the funniest tv series ever made.
Anyone who liked Topcat as a kid would love it. Phil Silvers can make me smile just looking at him. Title: Re: The Phil Silvers Show. Post by: Rich Pullen on Friday, January 16, 2009, 21:05:40 As a kiddy in Germany I used to watch onThe Phil Silvers Show on a Saturday morning - I loved Top Cat, Maurice Gosfield voiced Benny the Ball in TC and Pvt. Doberman in Bilko - what a career.

Title: Re: The Phil Silvers Show. Post by: suttonred on Sunday, January 18, 2009, 13:25:13 Timeless as above, i work with a typical 22 year old at work, bar the fact he loves Bilko and is about 2/3 rd's the way through the boxset, he's spends his lunch hour watching a couple of episodes, i was astounded when i found out.
