SUMMARY:Carl Reiner
DESCRIPTION:Carl Reiner was one of the funniest men ever to appear\, write for\, or direct a TV episode! \nAt 97\, he was the oldest celebrity active on Twitter – and never contemplating retiring from show business! Join me for a fast\, funny\, and fascinating look at one of America’s classic comic treasures\, Mr. Carl Reiner \nCarl Reiner first exploded into the American consciousness as the straight man on the immortal Sid Caesar’s great TV shows. \nWorking alongside writing legends including Mel Brooks\, Woody Allen\, Neil Simon\, Selma Diamond\, and Larry Gelbart\, Carl Reiner became one of the volatile Caesar’s favorite co-stars and most trusted writers. \nTheir classic “Professor” sketches are still hilarious sixty-five years after they first aired. And his lifelong friendship and collaboration with Mel Brooks began as a result! \nAfter the Sid Caesar shows ended\, Carl Reiner created The DIck Van Dyke Show. This program would prove to be one of the most influential\, funniest\, and most transformative situation comedies of all time. \nAfter Reiner and Van Dyke ended the show at the height of its popularity\, the brilliant writer/producer/director began working on feature films. \nCarl Reiner created the cult classics “Where’s Poppa” and “Oh\, God” before embarking on a brilliant partnership with Steve Martin. The Reiner/Martin films include some of the best comedies of Steve Martin’s career\, including “The Jerk\,” “All Of Me\,” and “Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid. \nWe’ll enjoy clips and stories from all of this – and\, of course – the brilliant “2\,000-Year-Old Man” routines with Mel Brooks. Don’t miss this excellent presentation!

SUMMARY:The History Of Santa Claus!
DESCRIPTION:Come and learn the fascinating history of Santa Claus \nWho doesn’t love Santa Claus? Even in countries like Japan\, that don’t celebrate Christmas\, the visage of Jolly old Santa is well known to the public. \nAlthough Santa’s origins can be traced to a religious figure (Saint Nicholas) in Christian lore\, Santa Claus has morphed into a universally recognized symbol of kindness\, charity\, compassion\, and joy over the years. \nIn this unique and utterly fascinating multimedia presentation\, we will trace how Santa has evolved over the centuries. We’ll look at how books\, movies\, advertising\, and music have shaped\, changed\, and recreated Santa into the figure we recognize today. Only a Grinch or a Scrooge would not like this wonderful presentation! \n  \n
