It was live TV, so they *couldn't* take out the mistakes. There was a notorious live broadcast of "The Colgate Comedy Hour", starring Spike Jones & His City Slickers, when a technician died on the stage, and couldn't be moved until the police and coroner had investigated. They had to figure out how to shoot around the sheet-covered body and the emergency responders, so none of it could be seen on the air.

This was Jack's final season for Lucky Strike. Their sales were lagging behind other popular non-filter brands {including the one that began with a "C"- no. NOT "Chesterfield", although its sales were slipping as well}. So American Tobacco started aiming Luckies at men- and the "college crowd"- with slogans like "Get the Genuine Article......Get the Honest Taste of A Lucky Strike". And it was becoming more expensive to sponsor the Benny program, even though it was on every other Sunday night at the time. And now, Jack was reaching the "wrong" audience Luckies was trying to attract. So, they decided to end their 15 year association with Jack {beginning on radio in October 1944} in June 1959. He found a new sponsor the following fall [Lever Brothers, for Lux].

26:58- Phil Harris was actually a part of Jack's radio show for 16 years (1936-'52). The only reason he left the program was because of budgetary reasons; someone from the cast had to be eliminated in order to trim expenses, as fewer people were listening to radio in 1952, and American Tobacco, as Jack's sponsor, was offering less money to stage the show on radio than television. Besides, Phil could not appear on Jack's TV show because of his exclusive contract with NBC in the early 1950's. So he was the logical choice. But his departure was on the best of terms.

Cooper's wife, New York socialite Veronica (“Rocky”) Balfe, and their only daughter, Maria, were devout Roman Catholics. Maria was best friends with actress Dolores Hart, who had converted to Catholicism at age 10. The two of them shunned Hollywood glitter and instead enjoyed walking, reading, and discussing theology. In 1963 Hart entered Regina Laudis Benedictine monastery in Bethlehem, Connecticut, where she resides today. Her entrance into the sisterhood ended a romantic relationship with architect Don Robinson; he never married, and he visited Sister Dolores Hart, O.S.B., every Christmas and Easter until his death in 2011.

How many good mothers, fathers, wives, husbands, parents died before their time due to active and passive smoking? We'll never know.

+JubalCalif What's new? They STILL pay actors to use products onscreen even today! The differences are the restrictions in network television. They don't promote tobacco use and I think hard drinking is seen a lot less. I can't speak for cable TV -- restrictions might be less there but it's still against American federal law as far as I know to advertise tobacco or alcoholic products on television. THey've pretty much disappeared from print ads, too. As far as using said-products on cable programs, again, different battlefield from the networks. I think the tendency is to be a bit less PC with cable network (HBO, Showtime, Netflix) programs but even then smoking is nowhere near as prevalent as it was in the 1950s and 1960s. The turn-around in attitudes began when the Surgeon General clearly came out against cigarette smoking in the early 1960s but it was over a decade before they really started coming out full against advertising on TV and magazines.

That's right! Philip Morris {Parliament, et. al.} was one of several "rotating" sponsors on "PERRY MASON" from 1959 through just about the the end of the series. And they insisted on "Perry" and other cast members smoking on camera during virtually every episode (as PM insisted the same on "I LOVE LUCY", "RACKET SQUAD", and their other sponsored series during the 1950's and '60s). Initially, Burr was a bit frustrated on PM "placing" their cigarettes into the scripts, but he accepted it as part of the framework of network television, and sponsors "controlling" the programs they sustained at that time. In fact, he was required to appear in print ads for at least one of his regular sponsors in 1959- Libby-Owens-Ford.
