Classic TV Comedy: ''Burns and Allen'' - (Title: Gracie's Vegetarian Plot)

1951 · comedy · CBS Television Network

Another episode of the early TV comedy, "The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show". This episode features a common plot used in early TV, the "crazy fad diet" plot. The show was quite popular, though ratings charts from the period are inconsistent and unreliable. This is reportedly Episode 23 of Season 1, aired 2nd of August, 1951 (my source may be wrong). Complete with Original Commercials. This live broadcast has fairly poor picture quality (my DVD copy is poor).
