Summaries

A dynamic combination of comedy vignettes and visually attractive musical numbers, hosted by Alan Young.

Hosted by and starring veteran radio comedian Alan Young, this program entertained viewers in a less physical, more intellectual style than Milton Berle, Abbott and Costello or other comedy programs. The show typically began with a monologue by Young, followed some musical numbers, then moving on to a pair of comedy skits. The show, unfortunately, failed to become as popular as its competitors, and it was cancelled in 1953.—Jean-Marc Rocher <[email protected]>
