The Ernie Kovacs Show

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ernie Kovacs Show was a comedy show first hosted by comedian Ernie Kovacs in Philadelphia during the early 50s, then shown on national television, still hosted by Kovacs, during the rest of that decade. The original studio location was on the 4th floor of the WRCV-TV studio location at 1619 Walnut Street in Philadelphia. That studio was very small and accommodated approximately approximately 45 audience members. The basement studio of the same building is where "The Mike Douglas Show" was aired from June 1965 until July 1972. The "Ernie Kovacs Show" studio was totally gutted and transformed into offices for an architectural firm in 2002.
