Sgt. Bilko The Phil Silvers Show (also known as You'll Never Get Rich and Sergeant Bilko) was a comedy television series which ran on CBS from 1955 to 1959. It starred Phil Silvers as Master Sergeant Ernie Bilko of the United States Army, who spent his time trying to make money using various scams and con games. It also starred Harvey Lembeck as Cpl. Rocco Barbella, Herbie Faye as Pvt. Sam Fender, Maurice Gosfield as Pvt. Duane Doberman, Joe E. Ross as Sgt. Rupert Ritzik (the cook), Allan Melvin as Cpl. Henshaw and Billy Sands as Pvt. Dino Paparelli. The soldiers regularly helped Bilko with his cons which were usually directed towards Col. John T. Hall (Paul Ford), the put-upon post commander. This program (filmed in black-and-white) was widely rerun into the 1960s, until the advent of color television rendered it, and many similar programs, less marketable than they had been previously.
