  • A short clip from The Jack Benny Show of Jan 15, 1961, featuring our beloved WML moderator, John Charles Daly. Considering how strong his comic delivery is here, maybe John shouldn't have wasted so much time with frivolous sidelines like reporting the news.

      What's My Line?
      This was great! Do you have the whole episode that this came from or know if it's available anywhere?

      SaveThe TPC Someone posted the full episode last year, yes-- thanks to the show finally being back in reruns on Antenna TV after 20 years of being totally inaccessible. Here it is:

      This phase of the Benny TV show was, oddly, the strongest and funniest stretch of filmed shows he every did. For about a year, starting in early 1961, he did one classic show after another (the majority of the best Benny TV shows are the live ones), my all time favorite being this one, where Jack is on trial for murdering a rooster and has Perry Mason as his defense lawyer. Who knew Raymond Burr was so funny?
      Unfortunately, this one is posted in three pieces, but it's well worth watching if you haven't seen it:

      At least I'm not too lazy to provide you with links when I don't already know you can find them yourself. ;) I hope you like these-- I'm not a big fan of Jack's TV show generally (his radio show, of course, was top flight for almost 20 straight years, though), but this stretch of shows in 1961 is fantastic. And Jack was almost 70 years old by this point!

    The first time I watched this, I had no clue who John Daly was and could care less. Now I bend over backwards finding John Daly clips.

    Gary; I love watching What's My Line, it is a great joy. I also am a huge Jack Benny fan. I was watching one episode of WML, and went to John's Wikipedia page to look something up. According to Wikipedia, Mr. Daly is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. I know there is certain criteria to make that your final resting place, the main one being in the Armed Forces. I cannot find any record of this. Do you, by any chance, have any idea how he was buried there?

      I don't have any info on this, sorry.

      I believe I know the reason for this. I recall reading at somepoint that war correspondants that travel with the troops during times of war at places of war, they are eligible for burial at Arlington. Mr. Daly traveled a great deal with Gen. Patton through Italy. He was the first to report the infamous incident of Gen. Patton smacking a soldier.

    This clip is a continuation of a gag that was introduced in 1954 on the radio: ruclips.net/video/k37ztHOO20M/видео.html .

      Not so much a continuation as a recycling, though. :) The TV show recycled a ton of material from the radio series, and beyond that, many of the live episodes of the TV show were recycled as filmed episodes.
