WATCH The Jack Benny Program – Phil Silvers

      No Comments on WATCH The Jack Benny Program – Phil Silvers

While Jack is getting a haircut in his dressing room, Silvers swipes Jack’s pants and opens the show, going through Jack’s pants pockets on stage. Jack finally makes it out wearing Don’s huge pants. (This gag was originally done with Bob Hope in episode Nº 31, “Road to Nairobi.”)

In the sketch, Jack recalls when he first met Phil: Silvers shows up at Jack’s house with a note pinned on him from Jack’s Aunt Sudie, asking Jack to help the young man get a break in show business. Phil proceeds to mooch off Jack, play the clarinet at 4 a.m., and sell Jack’s violin for poker money. When Aunt Sudie comes by and doesn’t recognize Silvers, Jack tosses the freeloader out.
