Alan Young is best remembered as the talking horse’s companion in the George Burns produced Mr. Ed, but the talented Canadian actor had a long career in comedy before that. The Alan Young Show went through a couple of different incarnations, usually with the bumbling Alan being led into situations well over his head. The last edition of the series features Jim Backus as the snobbish playboy Hubert Updike III.
This situation comedy stars film star Alan Young as himself. It was broadcast on NBC (1944); ABC (1944-1946); NBC (1949). Most folk remember Young as the fellow who chatted with Mr Ed, the talking horse on Mr Ed for CBS-TV (1961-1965). Click here to read more about Alan Young Show
