For me, this video is the "father" of Daft Punk's "Around the world" and all those kind of videos in which the inanimated things come to life. Sorry for my bad english, I'm mexican hehe.

Dunder Mifflin 1961, after dark...

Looks more like an episode of a Twilight Zone nightmare scene. Strange but surreal.

From what I've heard, these "musical" segments took 18-hour days upon days to create and choreograph. ABC gave him 'carte blanche' - highly usual at that time (early '60's). You wouldn't anything like this today: both the lack of imagination and the permanence of CGI have rendered this stuff obsolete. There's no telling what Kovacs would have done had he lived longer. At least we have this he left behind. Absolute genius.

When your office pencil sharpener whistles "Sentimental Journey"...
one can either hum along...or apply for retirement. :-)

Ernie Kovacs was a brilliant comedian - way ahead of his time. His sight gags have never been equalled, and his tragic, premature death robbed the world of his comedic genius. Who knows what turn comedy would have taken had he lived.
(Probably much better than it will ever be today.)
Thank you, Ernie, for all the magical evenings I spent as a child watching your unusual, innovative and zany shows!

Brilliant early Kovacs from an era of television long gone but never forgotten.
