    It's a shame so many today have no idea how funny Jack benny or Burns and Allen were.

    Full colour. Colour TV didn't come into force until 10 years later. When people could afford them and when the networks could afford to film everything in colour!

      Networks were broadcasting all-color prime time TV in 1966. Many folks, including my family, had a color TV set in the house before then. I remember what a thrill it was when we got our first color TV.

      No, they don't- otherwise, you would have seen it at the Paley Center For Media, or UCLA's Television Archive. Most network videotapes were eventually "wiped" for reuse.

      His "SHOWER OF STARS" appearances (for Chrysler) were on a monthly basis, between 1955 and '58. At the same time, Jack was on alternate Sundays, for Lucky Strike (through 1959). His schedule was flexible enough so that he could do both.

      What is WRONG with CBS? I can understand Warner Brothers not releasing their famous detective series of the late 50s and early 60s since they still often lease their broadcast (such as 77 Sunset Strip to Metv just a couple years back). But CBS and Jack Benny who unfortunately most newer generations don't even know lived???????
