BW - EP151—008: Jack Benny's Famous Slump—Danny Kaye Guest Stars To Play Jack in A Movie
While the cast of Jack Benny became famous in their own right, Benny’s show had great guest-stars, as Dennis Day remembered.
On the May 28th, 1944 episode Jack is in talks with Warner Brothers to make a film about his life. Naturally Jack thinks he’ll star, write, and direct it. Unfortunately for him, Warner Brothers has other ideas. They want Danny Kaye to play Jack and Jack to play Jack’s father.
