    Originally telecast on December 18, 1960 [for State Farm Insurance], and a distillation of many of Jack’s “Christmas Shopping” radio episodes (this one uses the “1948 finish”, where Mel…well, you KNOW which one!). Benny wanted at least one version on film.

    these 22 some odd minutes are oscar material for sitcom. they don’t give oscars for t.v., so an emmy then. every character was perfectly suited. besides mel blanc, my next to favorite was the guy selling lingerie talking about ”the loops”.
    jack’s secret was that he was always the straight man. everyone else was crazy except him.
    and that look of bewilderment when he would look at the audience over his shoulder. priceless.

    That’s true..the same was true with Lucille Ball she made sure to treat the Regular cast and her guest cast with the utmost respect…..Jack Benny and Lucille Ball were two of the best in the business. I enjoyed watching both of them.

    Jack Benny had the good sense and self confidence to make sure everyone else in the cast got the best lines. That way you never tired of Jack himself. Look how quickly TV audiences tired of Milton Berle, who had to dominate every second of air time. I can’t imagine ever tiring of these wonderful clips.

    When Mel Blanc …
    When Mel Blanc finally loses it and yells “I”LL GET IT!” you can hear Yosemite Sam in his voice, among other characters.

    I’d heard this script in the radio version several times before and variations of it were done repeatedly but this is the definitive version…timeless comedy. Mel gives his finest performance ever (IMO), as Jack’s breakup up attests. I’ve heard many of the Benny radio shows from ‘32 to ‘55 and this is and will always be my favorite sketch.

    Evidently at 22:40 Mel’s sobbing gets to Mr. Benny. To see a master comedian like Jack stifling a breaking up is priceless.

    he’s so natural as this character, I am thinking that this IS just Frank Nelson… it’s not an act !! lots of great memories here… I wasn’t born when these ran originally, but they showed them on re-runs here when I was a kid… I LOVED it when Mel was on because he was the cartoon guy !! turns out he was THE cartoon guy…. of cartoon guys !

    It’s fun to hear the different Looney Tunes characters coming thru in Mel Blanc’s performance. Before watching the Jack Benny shows on YouTube I had never seen Mel perform in person. Hilarious when Jack is cracking up at his performance after chasing down the truck.
