Episode #5 - Burns and Allen – Surprise Party Platform
An American comedy duo, Burns and Allen, was George Burns and his wife and partner, Gracie Allen. In September 1934, their 30-minute radio program premiered as The Adventures of Gracie, whose name changed to The Burns and Allen Show in 1936. From 1936 till 1950, the series switched back and forth between NBC and CBS until it was canceled. Burns and Allen reemerged on television with a successful situation comedy from 1950 to 1958.
Plot
Gracie explains how she came up with her platform. It includes giving a live sheep to student barbers. They can write their diploma on the sheepskin after learning to shave the sheep. "Vote For Gracie," sung by Gracie and the cast (including Truman Bradley), is a campaign song. Gracie Allen is running for president, but she didn't get much work done last night because her uncle had run off with the maid, so her aunt and butler went to see a movie! Gracie tells the story in her innocent way, which is hilarious.
