64 01 07 The Jack Benny Program S 14e 14 How Jack Met George Burns (1964)

1964 · Episode · 23 min

Synopsis

Old buddies Benny and Burns trade jokes and insults. George needles him about his pettiness in golfing before recalling their first meeting during the vaudeville days. In the flashback, they are each staying in a seedy boarding house when they decide to team up. Their act, full of awful jokes and ridiculous songs, is a flop. Jack, being Jack, demands a raise, even though they aren't making a dime. George claims their problem is Benny; anyone could do Jack's part better--even the landlord's daughter. That girl's name: Gracie Allen. Note: This was uploaded previously by someone else. Any comments or corrections are gladly accepted.
