| Title | : | mr benny goes to washington |
| Air Date | : | 03.10.1940 ( March 10, 1940) |
| Plot | : | + The Jell-O Program Starring Jack Benny. March 10, 1940. Red net. Sponsored by: Jell-O. Jack announces that it's Don Wilson's seventeenth anniversary in radio. The cast does, "Mr. Benny Goes To Washington." Jack throws a music cue by saying, "Take it, Mr. Merrick," indicating that Phil Harris is possibly, by this time, not the actual leader of the band. It's not known exactly when the nominal band leader on the show became a comedian only, with the music lead by others. Since Merrick was associated with Jack Benny at least through 1959, it is assumed that he conducts the band on the show from here on. The Jack Benny Program was first broadcast on the Blue Network on 2nd May 1932. With his capable cast of supporting players Benny made his show into one of great radio comedy shows. What was so special about this golden-age classic is Benny's ability to come across as a likeable guy despite being vain, argumentative, and a skinflint. People related to Benny and his willingness to often give the best comedy lines in the show to his supporting cast made him popular with listeners, guests and colleagues. This is classic comedy that is still funny sixty years later. |
