    Folks, I recently posted the Steve Allen show under the following:

    What are you listening to...

    What I did not realize that while watching it, the second video contains a sketch and songs that Mel Brooks would use to develop "Young Frankenstein" which is one of my favorite movies.

    According to Mel Brooks website, " Starting in 1960, Brooks teamed with Reiner as a comedy duo on the Steve Allen Show. Their performances led to release a series of comedy albums that included a routine that eventually expanded into the 2000 Year Old Man series that became five albums and a 1975 animated TV special."

    Take a look at this one, it has many humorous moments that you say, that's where that came from!

    What other items in entertainment have turned up as a "I didn't know this began here?"
