- Episode Description
- When a comic has established a truly unique style in his performing work, he has built the basic foundation for professional progress and audience recognition. Whether they call it the hook, point of view style, or attitude, all comedians are keenly aware of the image factor. An outstanding example of this essential element is the long-term and consistent comedy style of Henny Youngman, the king of the one liners. Armed only with a supply of short sharp jokes and his famous violin, he has successfully occupied a special spot on the show business scene for many years.
