Jack Benny Program: Jack Goes To A Concert (Guests Mr and Mrs Jimmy Stewart)

In this episode, originally broadcast December 11, 1960, Jack takes his girlfriend Mildred to a black-tie violin recital, even though she would rather go see a boxing match. Rochester tries to help Jack dress, but some unlikely problems arouse, including a mistaken delivery. At the concert, Jack spies the Stewarts below and tries to get their attention by pelting them with Mildred's peanuts, but the Stewarts leave. Bored with the recital, Mildred listens to the fight in a different way.

[@sandraspringer7902]

These shows are well before my time.... but I'm so glad they keep popping up .... they are hilarious plus I love the Good ol black n white movies and programs. Thanks for the memories

Love Rochester...Love his humor

[@armenehovsepian3700]

I love the old dry humor from that era

[@thomastarwater6035]

I almost split my sides, this episode was so hilarious. You just can’t find this kind of comedy anymore. And Gloria Stewart was an excellent comedienne. Who knew?

[@MrMenefrego1]

which one was 'Gloria'?

1st class comedy, great punch lines and very entertaining... These actors were the best!!!

This was done first on radio with Ronald and Benita Coleman. Both are classic. Barbara Nichols is great as Mildred.

James Stewart. Legend.

[@thomasramsey6942]

It's so interesting that once TV came around Rochester was an even more important part of the show because of his talent. I love Mildred. That he could always stayed in character was amazing. He could walk that line between making you uncomfortable and relaxed always was so great.

everything was based upon Jack Benny's life.

The 1955-'56 title is seen at the beginning, instead of the original opening {DON WILSON: "From Hollywood....'THE JACK BENNY PROGRAM'!"}.

[@richardbullis6263]

How many times were the Stewart's on the Jack Benny show?

[@Bigstooler0]

4 if you count the color special in the early 1970's. Plus Jimmy did 2 or 3 radio shows with Jack. These are just the shows I have seen or heard, there may be more

[@CaptZdq1]

The plural doesn't have an apostrophe, the possessive does. Why is it people nowadays can't tell the difference? What a bizarre, annoying, n irritating writing style.

The dame with the shapely frame is Barbara Nichols. She could never escape her dim-witted, sex-symbol image, but made the best of it and had some good comedy parts, like this one. She died of liver disease at age 47.

[@cannwolf3687]

Nichols died on October 5, 1976, aged 47, from liver failure due to complications of a damaged spleen and liver reportedly sustained in an automobile accident many years earlier.
