Jack Benny radio show 1/8/50 Drear Pooson

[@desertbob6835]

Best comedy show ever.

[@jubalcalif9100]

My sentiments exactly !

[@keithelster8858]

Not only was this the best Benny show ever (radio or TV), but the best radio show from anyone, ever.

[@dh2838]

It is in the conversation as being the peak of all entertainment to date, an absolute masterpiece.

[@jubalcalif9100]

I heartily concur !!

[@markschildberg1667]

After Don’s flub, the writers took Frank Nelson aside and rewrote his line without Jack knowing. Jack doubled over laughing and it took quite some time to get back on track.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Yes indeed !

[@dh2838]

This might be the greatest half hour in light entertainment ever.

[@jubalcalif9100]

I certainly have a notion to second THAT emotion !

[@jubalcalif9100]

A thousand thanks for uploading this totally hilarious episode. One of my all time faves! One of the BEST scripts in the series!

[@nmr6988]

This particular episode is one of the best shows ever, and one of our personal favorites. The writing and the timing and the guest stars were all incredible.

[@jubalcalif9100]

You speak the truth, Kemo Sabe !

[@GrantTarredus]

I’ve been wanting to hear this episode for years! Thank you so much for letting it happen at last!

[@greenmonsterprod]

This show could be funnier with an ad-lib or a blown line than 90% of all other shows can be with their best scripts. Top notch.

[@jubalcalif9100]

So very true ! I have a notion to second that emotion ! :-)

[@ChaniElkin]

I grew up on tapes of these types of shows. Don't know if you've heard this, but if you enjoy the 'flubs' and "ad-libs" of shows - you would totally love the Command Performance OTR episode "Dick Tracy In B Flat".

[@londonduke5546]

pro trick: you can watch movies on Flixzone. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.

[@nmr6988]

@@ChaniElkin thank you for recommending the Dick Tracy in b-flat episode. I'm definitely going to find it.

[@nmr6988]

@@londonduke5546 thank you for the flick zone recommendation. I have not heard of it. I do watch Pizza flicks a lot, but there's always room for another great channel. And please forgive any spelling flubs because I use Google voice recognition and it does its best to sabotage everyone.

[@haveapotato691]

This is my all-time favorite Jack Benny episode.

[@jubalcalif9100]

It's my second favorite. My fave is the episode where Jack & Van Johnson take two girls to Ciro's restaurant.

[@nmr6988]

@@jubalcalif9100 oh, I'm going to look for that episode. Thanks for mentioning it as I have never heard it.

[@derektownsend3569]

I just listened to a radio interview with Frank Nelson and he told this story. Very funny. Thanks for sharing.

[@janmcdonald3896]

Classic episode of legend. Thank u

[@jubalcalif9100]

Indeed !

[@Carthaginian60]

Wow, what great timing. This one's hysterical.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Amen to that !

[@jubalcalif9100]

Right On !

[@epaddon]

At 12:42 you can distinctly hear Jack's hysterical laughter to the moment.

[@SeenAGreatLight]

I _thought_ that was him!! Oh, for behind-the-scenes footage of that. 😆

[@canadianscratcher7834]

"ONE LOUSY REHEARSAL"

[@altonpitts5303]

This was an extraordinary episode.The American Tobacco Company must have blown its entire budget to get all those stars on the show.😉

[@jubalcalif9100]

As I do when I take off my hat, you make a good point ! :-)

[@jamnhunter7478]

Not when there plugging there movie

[@jerryhatley5004]

I completely agree with greenmonsterprod! What do network channels, cable or any other form of today’s entertainment have in the form of comedy (including their millions in CGI) that comes close to standing up to this in inventiveness?

[@jubalcalif9100]

You got that right ! I'd rather listen to the great classics of yesteryear than what passes for comedy today ! And in those days they were able to make us laugh without the use of profanity !

[@KeithE4]

The voice of the dog had to have been Mel Blanc.

[@jubalcalif9100]

I'm sure it was.

[@LorenIpsum75]

"Certain" markets preferred promotional material for the Benny program without "Rochester". Notice Mr. Anderson's image can be easily edited out without compromising the entire photo. 😕
