I kept expecting Benny to say "I'm thirsty", so Webb could reply, ""I'm Friday. Come over Saturday & we'll have a Sundae".

@chrisgreulich9270 Год назад

Jack Webb was one of the best guests I have seen on the show. He has great comedic timing. I love him on Dragnet as well.

Even though he doesn't sing or dance. Or play an instrument.

@lelia660 Год назад

I agree! I can't believe I've never seen this episode! I love seeing Jack Webb's funny side! He was so young!

Thanks much for posting this. I was probably in bed at age 3 1/2 when this first was shown in 1959. But I bet my mother and father were watching this way back then. I don't believe I ever saw this episode. As a Jack Benny fan and I liked the "Dragnet" show a lot (the revival in '67), this was fun to watch. Jack Webb was very good. So was Mr. Benny. LOL

I have never seen Jack Webb in a comedy. Also, in later episodes the ads are integrated into the guest's songs. Who remembers the old laudromats? Those days were absolute comedy.

@fromthesidelines 2 года назад

The widow of Earl Derr Biggers- the creator of "Charlie Chan"- sued Jack, CBS and Lever Brothers for not asking permission to parody her late husband's character. I believe the case was settled out of court.

Herb Vigran, who appeared as "Mr. Johnson" [16:58], occasionally appeared on "DRAGNET" in the 1950's and '60s.

@jeffgreen7499 10 месяцев назад

I saw Herb Vigran casted in many TV shows and movies. He was usually cast as a hotel clerk, bartender, or shopkeeper. He has a very distinctive voice, easily identifiable even when he's in a radio program.

@michaelcase8574 10 месяцев назад

Herb was a very prolific actor in radio. His voice was very distinctive. One of my favorites!

The broadcast date of this episode is November 1, 1959. It was Recorded October 18, 1959. --- January 1 is the Gaslight episode with Barbara Stanwyck.

Thank you Garth. I will fix it soon.

@fromthesidelines 2 года назад

The "Autolight" episode (filmed in the summer of 1953, and delayed because of MGM's injunction against Jack for filming the story without their permission) was telecast only once- on January 11, 1959.

@erichwise9936 Год назад

Gaslight was Jan 11. Someone confused 1/11/59 with 11/1/59.

Parts of the sketch sounds similar to the copper clapper sketch Mr. Webb did on the Carson Tonight Show some ten years later .

@professor1966 2 года назад

This episode aired about two years after the radio series ended, and less then four months after the TV series ended.. I think Jack was wanting to take a bit of a step away from the stoicism of Joe Friday, and to a certain extent revisit the comedy show he did out of San Francisco for a time in the mid-40s.. #mytwocents

@fromthesidelines Год назад

The radio show ended production in 1955; it was repeated on NBC for two seasons, through early 1957.

Some may say this episode is a little not politically correct, but it's funny just the same. Don Wilson does a great China man. Recently, Trump said that Xi is Hollywood handsome. If that is so, bring back Charlie Chan with Xi in the starring role. North Korea's Kim Un Jong can play #1 son. I bet that Trump is yearning for a head of hair like Xi has.

@SanchoPanza-wg5xf 24 дня назад

Chinese-Americans were thrilled to be represented by the famous Jack Benny! Modern white female radicals indoctrinated with critical race theory are the only ones who could ever be offended by this. Not personally offended, mind you, but on behalf of hypothetical others.
