The Burns and Allen Show OTR

Episoden von otr von George Burns und Gracie Allen, die von 1934-1950 ausgestrahlt wurden.

An American comedy duo, Burns and Allen, was composed of George Burns and his wife and partner, Gracie Allen. In September 1934, their 30-minute radio program premiered as The Adventures of Gracie, whose title changed to The Burns and Allen Show in 1936.

Burns and Allen are one of the most beloved couple in old time radio. They got started, like many of the greats of old time radio, in vaudeville, which is really just the touring popular entertainment in America prior to movies. Gracie was the sparkplug of the act, always the center of attention. George played the foil, the guy vainly trying to make sense of the ditzy world of Gracie. By the early 30s, Gracie was probably the best known woman on radio. Gracie often sang in a voice that showed she was also an excellent comedienne songstress.
