Sgt Bilko

The classic 1955-59 sitcom The Phil Silvers Show (also known as “You’ll Never Get Rich” in its first few episodes) became this high concept comedy with an all-star cast. Steve Martin stars as U.S. Army Master Sergeant Ernest G. Bilko, a conniving motor pool supervisor who uses his position to finance various get-rich-quick schemes, including illegal gambling, at a Kansas military base.
