I have seen a few episodes of "The Phil Silvers Show" (as well as the 1995 Steve Martin movie version, "Sgt. Bilko" a number of times) and I think it's an incredibly funny show. I like it just fine- right alongside "The Honeymooners", "I Love Lucy", "Leave It to Beaver", "Father Knows Best" and a number of other classic 1950s shows.

I agree. This show is great.

One of the local Los Angeles channels featured "Bilko" in syndication when I was a kid during the 1970s, but I can't recall ever watching it. However, I can clearly remember my dad and my older sister telling me that it was a great show.

So I've watched a few episodes on ME TV's early Sunday morning lineup over the past couple weeks, and all I can say is: Dad and Sis were right!

I'll catch a few more episodes before I deliver my final verdict, but until then I give this sitcom "two thumbs up".
