Wayback Wednesday: Ernie Kovacs
One hundred years ago today, comic genius Ernie Kovacs was born in Trenton, NJ! He began his career in radio in Trenton, and got his first job in TV in 1950 in Philadelphia. Kovacs’ visually experimental and often spontaneous comedic style influenced generations of TV comedy programs, for many years after his death, which came in a tragic car accident in 1962.
