Plot | : | + The Lucky Strike Program Starring Jack Benny. December 24, 1944. Red net origination, AFRS rebroadcast. It's Christmas-time and Jack is having trouble trimming the tree. It seems a set of tree-lights keeps giving him shocks. AFRS program name: "The Jack Benny Program." See cat. #84520 for essentially the same program, dated December 22, 1948 (identified as a CBS show, this was possibly a not-for-broadcast test show, since Jack's first show on CBS wasn't until January 2, 1949). Dennis Day appears instead of Larry Stevens, and Andy Devine doesn't appear. in the 1948 show. 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. |
