51. The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show
- www.jumptheshark.com
- The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show.
- Ronnie Burns joins the cast.
- The greatest sitcom of all time, with a do-anything spirit that was decades ahead of its time--everything from having George Burns watch the show on his television in his den, and talking to the camera and commenting on the plot, to one of the greatest moments in TV history, where Larry Keating replaced Fred Clark as Harry Morton in mid-scene. George came out and explained that Fred was leaving the show, and that Larry was replacing him. ...
- My favorite episode was when George, Gracie, and company took a train trip to New York, and Gracie plays cards with a nuclear scientist she meets on the train --and she wins! George Burns's "magic TV" must have been good preparation for his later playing God in the movies. ...
- Two comments: Ronny Burns -- the real-life son of George and Gracie, who played himself on the show -- was actually the adopted son of George and Gracie, and they adopted him fairly late in his childhood. ...
- For the record, according to George Burns' adoring bio of his better half 'Gracie: A Love Story', they adopted their son Ronnie and his older sister Sondra as infants not 'nearly grown'! To their credit, beyond telling their fans they loved and were proud of their offspring, George and Gracie kept them out of the public fishbowl their entire childhoods. ...
- Despite having the neighbor's husband played by two different actors, George Burns began the program by telling the audience that Fred Clark would no longer be playing their neighbor, and introduced the new actor by name. ...
- Gracie Allen had the best comic timing and george was the perfect straight man. ...
- Burns's routine tactic of "breaking" the "fourth wall", stepping out of the set and onto the proscenium to clue in the audience is considered a "first" for the medium, as significant as Lucille Ball's use of the three-camera technique for filming. ... It behooves us to remember that the stars began this program in their 50s--George was 54 that first season. ...
- IMO Harry Von Zell is the unsung hero of this show - his comedic timing, especially in his verbal duels with George, is really top notch. ...
- It isn't rerun very often, and the current generation knows very little about it, and only thinks of George burns in the "God" movies or on bad Bob Hope specials, or tonight show appearances. ... George and Gracie had at least 3 different versions of their house on Maple Drive, and so did the Mortons, and then the year they all went to New York (at the same time Lucy went to Hollywood), there was another set of sets. ...
- i know it was standard for the time period but COME ON! "while george and gracie are changing, id like to take this opportunity to tell you good folks about Carnation Evaporated Milk. ...
- The smoothest and most intelligently handled way of substituting actors in the same character was handled by George Burns. When his next door neighbor had a professional commitment in either Hollywood or Broadway, Burns brought the new actor in front of the audience, said that the original actor had another acting commitment and said that from now on the new actor would be playing the role. ...

- The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (sitcom).
- (CBS Primetime, 1950 - 1958; CBS Daytime reruns through the 1960s) [aka: "Burns and Allen"; One of the classic sitcoms of early TV -- in which Gracie Allen played a scatterbrained wife whose scrambled logic complicates the life of her husband George and their neighbors -- the Mortons; the role of Blanche Morton was played by Bea Benaderet; the role of TV announcer Harry Von Zell was played by real-life TV announcer Harry Von Zell; The TV series was an extension of the radio show; Their radio scripts evolved into a mixture of real life and fantasy since the characters on the series closely resembled the real world of George Burns and Gracie Allen; George and Gracie were indeed married and did live in Beverly Hills, which was also the location of the series; but Gracie played a character which more closely resembled the scatterbrained character in her stage act; (in real life their Beverly Hills neighbors and friends included Lucille Ball and Jack Benny); George Burns also established an unusual precedent for a sitcom by "breaking the fourth wall" in which he talked directly to the audience between acts to make humorous comments about Gracie and plot developments, while puffing on his ever-present cigar to punctuate his punch lines; When Gracie retired from show business in 1958, George attempted to do a solo show -- "The George Burns Show" without Gracie -- but it lasted only one season] Main Theme: "The Love Nest",.
