64 02 11 The Jack Benny Program S 14e 19 How Jack Found Dennis

1964

Jack explains how he manages to look so good on TV after all these years: long shots. In close-ups, he's nothing but wrinkles. Dennis brings out his own palm tree as scenery and performs "Cocktails for Two." Don's State Farm Insurance commercial features a yodeling Swiss chalet owner who Jack tries to muzzle. It's Dennis' 24th anniversary of working with Jack. Benny tells his version of how he discovered Day and hired him for his radio show. Jack hears Dennis' demo record and sets out to find him, following him through a parade of jobs (fish market, ice cream shop) from which he was fired. Jack finally locates him working in the kitchen of a Chinese restaurant. Note: This was uploaded previously by someone else.
