He’ll also chronicle, and offer insight into the creation of, his huge portfolio of celebrated works, including Sid Caesar’s Your Show of Shows, his smash collaboration with Carl Reiner, “The 2,000 Year Old Man,” and various classic comedies like The ProducersBlazing Saddles, and Young Frankenstein.
