Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - Some of the Unusual Gang of Idiots

Mad is known for the stability and longevity of its talent roster, with several creators enjoying 30-, 40-, and even 50-year careers in the magazine's pages.

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - Recurring subsections

Most magazines include ongoing, internal segments or domains, and Mad is no exception. An issue of Mad includes these "cluster" departments. Mad magazine - Table of Contents. The first page of each issue lists all the articles to follow, including their "Department" headings, which are plays on words. For example, a parody of a pizza chain's menu appeared under "The Passion of the Crust Department," an article entitled "William Shakespeare, Sports Commentator" was part of the "The Play-By-Pla ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - The MAD 20

Since 1998, Mad has done an annual issue commemorating the "20 Dumbest People, Events and Things" of the year. These emphasize the visual motif above all else, parodying such things as movie posters, famous paintings, or fake magazine covers, though one or two text-heavier takeoffs are usually sprinkled into each year's assortment. The feature is reminiscent of the defunct Spy Magazine's "Spy 100" list, which purported to catalogue "Our Annual Census of the 100 Most Annoying, Alarming ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - Imitators and variants

Mad has had many imitators through the years. The three most durable of these were CRACKED, Sick, and Crazy.

(2 issues), Get Lost (3 issues), Whack (3 issues), Wild (5 issues), Madhouse (8 issues), Riot (6 issues), Flip (2 issues), Eh! (7 issues), and Gag! (1 issue).

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - David Letterman - Early TV Career

Letterman began work as a radio talk show host and on Indianapolis television station WTHR as a local anchor and weatherman. He received recognition for his unpredictable on-air behavior, which included erasing state borders from the weather map and predicting hail stones "the size of canned hams." One night he reportedly upset his bosses when he congratulated a tropical storm on being upgraded to a hurricane. In 1975, Letterman moved to California with hopes of becoming a comedy writer and started writing material for sitcoms. He also began performing stand-up comedy at The Comedy Store, a famed Los Angel ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - Contributors and controversy

Mad provided an ongoing showcase for many of the best satirical writers and artists. The magazine fostered an unusual group loyalty. Even though several of the contributors were earning far more than their Mad pay in such fields as television and advertising, they steadily continued to provide material for the publication. Among the notable artists were the aforementioned Davis, Elder and Wood, as well as Mort Drucker, George Woodbridge, and Paul Coker. Writers such as Dick DeBartolo, Stan Hart, Frank Jacobs, Tom Koch ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - Recurring images and references

Regular Mad readers have been treated to a large number of recurring in-jokes, including Neuman's catch phrase "What? Me worry?", as well as such words as potrzebie, axolotl, Melvin, and Cowznofski. In the 1950s, the magazine received a fee to promote the soft drink Moxie, and that product's logo would occasionally appear in illustrations. This experiment was an attempt by Feldstein to convince Gaines th ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - Mad merchandising

Mad has stepped gingerly into other media. Three albums of novelty songs were released in the early 1960s. A successful off-Broadway production, "The Mad Show," was staged in 1966, featuring sketches written by Mad personnel (as well as an uncredited assist by Stephen Sondheim). An early 1970s television pilot was not picked up. In 1979, a very successful board game was released. "The MAD Magazine Game" was an absurdist version of Monopoly in which the first player to lose all their money and go bankrupt was the winner. ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - DuMont Television Network - Halted at the Start

DuMont began with one basic disadvantage; unlike NBC and CBS, it did not have a radio network from which to draw revenue. Also, early television licenses were granted to established radio broadcasters, and many long-time relationships with radio networks carried over to the new medium. As CBS and NBC gained their footing, they began to offer programming that drew on their radio backgrounds, bringing over the most popular radio stars; thus early television stations, asked to choose an affiliation with CBS, offering a Jack Benny, a Lucille Bal ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - DuMont Television Network - The End

DuMont only survived the early 1950s because of WDTV in Pittsburgh, the nation's sixth-largest market at the time. WDTV's only competition came from UHF stations (no other commercial VHF station signed on until 1957), giving it a de facto monopoly on television in Pittsburgh. Since WDTV carried secondary affiliations with the other three networks, DuMont used this as a bargaining chip to get its programs cleared in other large markets. But by 1953 DuMont was in severe financial straits. That year, the struggling ABC (with only fourtee ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Mad magazine - History

With the first issue (October-November, 1952), Mad was a comic book, and its subtitle, "Tales Calculated To Drive You" above the title Mad, referenced radio's Suspense which each week used the opening, "Tales well calculated to keep you in... Suspense!" Written almost entirely by Harvey Kurtzman, the first issue displayed the cartoon talents of Kurtzman, Wally Wood, Will Elder, Jack Davis, and John Severin. Wood, Elder, and Davis were the main three illustrators throughout the run of the comic book, along with a handful ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Ernie Kovacs - TV-Movie Bio and Retrospectives

In 1984, a TV-movie was made about Kovacs' life called Ernie Kovacs: Between the Laughter, which starred Jeff Goldblum as Kovacs. It focused on his private life, especially his attempts to retrieve his kidnapped children. The TV-Movie had been inspired by a resurgence of interest in Kovacs, due to the broadcast of some of his work (mostly his videotaped ABC specials) by PBS under the title "The Best of Ernie Kovacs." This package of shows introduced a new generation of fans to his unique style of humor. Later, in the early 1990 ...

Ernie Kovacs: Encyclopedia II - Ernie Kovacs - Writing TV and Movie Credits

Kovacs wrote a novel entitled, ZOOMAR (A Sophisticated Novel About Love and TV) in 1956, published by Doubleday.

(a parody of Ripley's Believe It or Not! that also was featured on Kovacs' TV show) and "Gringo," a board game with ridiculously ...
