Über diesen Titel
The Jack Benny Program debuted in 1932 and quickly became one of the most beloved and influential comedy shows of the era. Known for its impeccable timing, recurring gags, and finely tuned character interplay, the show helped define what radio comedy could be.
At its heart was Benny himself—the vain, penny-pinching, self-deprecating “fall guy” surrounded by a cast of unforgettable characters: Mary Livingstone with her sharp wit, Don Wilson the jovial announcer, bandleader Phil Harris, wisecracking Eddie “Rochester” Anderson, and the perpetually off-key Dennis Day. Each week, listeners tuned in not just for jokes, but to spend time with familiar voices who felt like old friends.
Over its 23-year radio run (1932–1955), The Jack Benny Program evolved from a vaudeville-style variety show into a character-driven sitcom that set the standard for modern situation comedy. Benny’s masterful use of silence, running gags (like his age being “39 forever”), and self-parody influenced generations of comedians—from Johnny Carson to Mel Brooks.
