Comedy on a Thursday

First,  a look at this day in History.

Then, The Fred Allen Show, originally broadcast June 26, 1949, 76 years ago, Last Show of the Series.  A walk down Main Street, asking the Allen's Alley residents "Do most people plan their vacations?" Guest Henry Morgan needs $300, so Fred takes him to the secret vault of "Mr. X." NBC has the last laugh when the show runs late and is cut off the air. 

Followed by The Phil Harris-Alice Faye Show, originally broadcast June 26, 1949, 76 years ago, Contract Renewal.   Will Rexall renew the contract for the show for next season?  Last show of the season.  

Then, George Burns and Gracie Allen, originally broadcast June 26, 1940, 85 years ago.  The last show of the series; the last show on CBS, the last Burns and Allen show for this sponsor.

Followed by The Adventures of Frank Merriwell starring Lawson Zerbe, originally broadcast June 26, 1948, 77 years ago, Unreasonable Aunt. Frank saves a woman from being cheated out of her soap factory.

Finally. Rosemary, originally broadcast June 26, 1946, 79 years ago.   Bill's memory has returned, because Rosemary sang, "Night and Day." He has a baby too!
