The Jack Benny Program

We have a local TV station that plays old TV shows. It is currently playing The Jack Benny Program in the mornings when I'm sitting around drinking my coffee before I head to work (5:30-6:00).

Anyway, this show originally aired "before my time", so I had never seen it before but it is really good. Jack Benny was a talented guy. The episode this morning had Carol Burnett on it. Brilliant stuff.

That is all...

One of my fav JB lines.
They were going to film an incident where JB would be mugged.
The producer said, "OK, I'm a robber and I just stuck a gun in your ribs and said, 'Your money or your life'"

So JB just stood there silent for a bit, crossed arms, with one finger to his chin...Jack Benny style.
The producer said, "Well, c'mon, what would you say?"

JB: "I'm thinking! I'm thinking.!"
.
Apparently he was quite a generous man in real life.
