Comedy pioneer Ernie Kovacs experimented with genres and characters in his short but legendary career. Matzoh Hepplewhite was a famous, bumbling magician character created by Kovacs in the 1950s.

The "Great Matzoh" was a famous comedy bit featuring an inebriated magician, where he performed many "tricks" with an unwilling volunteer and a loud gong.
