[@LPJack02]

RIP Jack Benny (February 14, 1894 - December 26, 1974), aged 80 And RIP George Burns (January 20, 1896 - March 9, 1996), aged 100 You both will be remembered as legends.

[@daler.steffy1047]

Thank you for giving us these dates, whether we (sort of) knew them, or not. By doing so, you are paying proper respect to their lives.

[@purselmer5931]

George broke down giving Benny's eulogy and Bob Hope had to finish it. RIP to these two and I'm so thankful they're in reruns on "Antenna tv."

[@daler.steffy1047]

George and Jack, two of the GREATEST comedians who graced the stage, and our lives!

[@kingalexander2704]

When you had to have talent to be on TV--- God, I miss those days!

[@24klc67]

How can there possibly be 7 dislikes on this? These people obviously don't appreciate something that is seriously lacking in the entertainment industry today......TALENT!!!!!

[@okjoe5561]

The anti-smoking crowd, no doubt.

[@24klc67]

LOL, you're probably right about that. And I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if my Aunt Ann was one of them.

[@thinkinginwords]

Who cares? Focus on the positive.

[@winstonsmith3070]

Absolutely incredible skit by 4 of the greatest comedians ever. Kudos to the writers as well!

So miss Jack and George!

[@eddierushing5416]

Two colossal comedic minds! All comedians today bow to Burns and Benny.

[@MrsRosencranz1]

Tommy died on the same day as Jack, only 50 yrs later.

[@inkyguy]

I'd love to see the next bit too and any others from the show.

[@kennethgray545]

They were supposed to be in The Sunshine Boys together, but unfortunately Jack died before filming and Walter Matthau took his place (and he was great also)

[@ralmcg]

Walter Matthau didn't take Jack Benny's place. It was George Burns who replaced Jack Benny because Benny got sick with a disease (I don't have the exact name of the disease.) that would eventually kill him.

[@stevefriedmanphoto]

@@ralmcg As I recall, Red Skelton was originally cast to play the role that went to Walter Matthau. Skelton balked at the language at the "Smith & Dale" sketch at the end - putz comes to mind - and the bawdy sequences with the nurse. It did work out. It's a priceless film.

[@robertthomas5196]

George with the cigar. Classic!

[@bmyra]

That was interesting to see Tommy play straight man to Benny.

i taught them ALL everything they know and all i got was this lousy t-shirt. for some more great comedy watch the "burns and allen" tv show and the "jack benny program" from the 50s.

Jack Benny was nervous in the presence of God.
