A career-spanning 6 DVD box set The Ernie Kovacs Collection on Shout! Factory has already far surpassed all expectations in terms of press, sales and awareness. In light of this success, Kovacs-centric events are being planned through 2013 across the U.S., and the stage is set to bring Kovacs back to the mainstream.
