Despite being impressed by an older radio when I was little, I was also interested in puppets and ventriloquism.

The first time I remember seeing Edgar Bergen as a guest on various television shows - I can not tell you that, but I knew his guest had just seen often.

And then I remember him as host on the original Do you believe your wife? which later became Who Do You Trust? When the last row also shows the final host, and the very young and did not know Johnny Carson took over and instead of Charlie McCarthy and Ed McMahon.

As a child, I do not think all that Bergen was a ventriloquist because I could see her mouth move when he spoke with Dummies. That's when I was young and did not get how talented this man really is.

He was a radio ventriloquist, who, by the way, quite ground breaking in the 1930s when the old Bergen radio show into smash hits. Think about it - put a ventriloquist on the radio?

As the years passed, I took a new appreciation for Edgar Bergen's genius.

His children are not working. Routines that are not designed for children's birthday party or a Saturday morning. Bit it was advanced and intelligent, sassy, and, sometimes, even a little ... What shall we say, Risque?

He has great chemistry with the actor. Bergen is seen as a soft, almost timid father figure to Charlie's smart, sarcastic, rebellious child. their long exchange of fire would you want to go to Bergen laser into and out of Charlie's voice in amazing clip.

No wonder a lot of radio listeners back then thought Charlie was a little boy true.

And who could forget Mortimer Snerd? Alter-ego that big for Charlie.

Mortimer is very funny and grace and guilt. He knew that he was stupid, but because he was stupid, t he did not care. Unlike Charlie's sarcastic, he never said a bad word for anyone.

When I was little Mortimer is my favorite because he has more than cartoon characters.

I still like to listen to Bergen and McCarthy's old radio, especially when, as the second segment introduced the show, Mortimer's theme music comes on. Time audience applause and you can hear them laughing because (obviously) Mortimer was escorted to the stage.

Bergen to Splash on the radio after the bidding The Rudy Vallee Show early 30's. Edgar had his own show for many years after that, Fashionable in the era of the stars on the show and trading barbs with Charlie.

Perhaps the most famous WC Fields Charlie Charlie enemy, which is known as a gate-leg table and the idea of woodpecker.

Another famous (or Infamous) bit in The Edgar Bergen Show involved seems to Mae West in 1939. West has played Eve in the Garden of Eden --- so she plays the mother of our experienced and well-known spin and see Mae West could be banned from radio and Bergen costs about working for Chase and Sanborn, old sponsors.
