I love Charles Coburn, he reminds me of the grandpa you would go stay with for the summer and go camping and fishing and listen to his many fascinating stories.
Oh, how I wish I could've known Charles Coburn.....what a beautiful man! A top notch actor with a smile that could warm the hearts of all and a really nice guy! Thank goodness we have these filmed memories of such greatness!
Having been pushed toward retirement at 70 as management became alarmed at its "aging workforce", I really appreciated the dynamics between the older but valuable worker and his somewhat dismissive younger boss. Great story, and thanks for posting!
There were so many TV shows in the 1950's to early 1960's just like this. They weren't great, but they were entertaining and they were all different. It was so easy to spend a whole evening just watching one or two stations-virtually every show was interesting. Now, I have 300 channels, but can hardly ever see anything I want to watch, let alone be entertained watching it.
Yep tv sets got better but the content fell 100 miles down just terrible I camt watch anything color anymore so to me the i,prove,emts tv's made in the lass 3 years are very mu h wasted on me
Sorry folks, not related. Below from Wiki.... Coburn was born in Laurel, Nebraska on August 31, 1928, the son of James Harrison Coburn II and Mylet Coburn. His father was of Scottish-Irish ancestry and his mother was an immigrant from Sweden. The elder Coburn had a garage business that was destroyed by the Great Depression.[6] Coburn himself was raised in Compton, California, where he attended Compton Junior College. In 1950, he enlisted in the United States Army, in which he served as a truck driver and occasionally a disc jockey on an Army radio station in Texas. Coburn also narrated Army training films in Mainz, Germany.
At 66 I'm still going strong at work and enjoying it. When your financially set and don't have to work anymore you would be surprised how much more enjoyable work becomes.
Oh, yes! I agree. I've always loved the brothers. And of course, Charles Coburn's son, Charles Bronson, was an excellent actor in his own right. Just a different genre.
@@rhondae8222 : I'm 70 now, and it's been my observation throughout my working life since age 17, that ALL illegal and otherwise discrimination is not only hard to prove, but pretty much impossible unless you're wealthy enough to hire an attorney and private investigator. And even THEY would have a hard time getting evidence because it's all in the mind of the hiring person. In the medical records office where I worked for 17 years, if an applicant was not considered good-looking enough (because of obesity, acne, piercings, tattoos); or had small children; or was likely to become pregnant; or seemed too old to "fit in"; or were handicapped in any noticeable way, they were just told they would be considered, and called if accepted. Hushed comments and overheard gossipy remarks were the only hints of "evidence". When I worked temporarily for the 2000 federal census, in data entry, I overheard the 67 y/o hiring supervisor say to an assistant, they didn't want any Vietnam vets because they were likely to be mentally unstable and become violent. She could have had many other personal prejudices against hiring certain people and no one would ever be able to prove it. All they have to do is offer some innocuous, more acceptable reason for rejecting an application. So easy they don't even worry about any illegality.
Good YOUNG Charlie Coburn ! Don't make them like him anymore ! Only one problem......no more PizzaFllix for him !... looks like he has had his fill....,but not the VIEWER.....we need every slice we can WATCH !

Charles Coburn: After his wife's death in 1937, Coburn relocated to Los Angeles, California and began film work. He won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role as a retired millionaire playing Cupid in The More the Merrier in 1943. He was also nominated for The Devil and Miss Jones in 1941 and The Green Years in 1946. Other notable film credits include Of Human Hearts (1938), The Lady Eve (1941), Kings Row (1942), The Constant Nymph (1943), Heaven Can Wait (1943), Wilson (1944), Impact (1949), The Paradine Case (1947), Everybody Does It (1950), Has Anybody Seen My Gal? (1952), Monkey Business (1952), Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), and John Paul Jones (1959). He usually played comedic parts, but his roles in Kings Row and Wilson showed his dramatic versatility. In the 1940s, Coburn served as vice-president of the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals, a group opposed to leftist infiltration and proselytization in Hollywood during the Cold War. Born and raised in the southern state of Georgia, Coburn was a member of the White Citizens' Councils, a white supremacist group which opposed racial integration. A staunch Republican, Coburn supported Thomas Dewey in the 1944 United States presidential election
It is a little known fact that Charles Coburn and Elizabeth Patterson were close friends and they were in another full movie "Colonel Effingham's Raid". Which by the way it is my favorite CC movie because he is the top billing in that movie and not a supporter (just as in this TV short)
silly old show, as they were mostly int the 50"s Well,for that matter,they still make them silly, only now in technicolor. but coburn, as always, is delight, as s elizabeth patterson. . he was 79 yo when made this show!!!

@@kirkwatstien6979 I have that problems with anything color, too 🥰
That’s why I got rid of cable, many years ago, and don’t miss it one bit.
Exactly the same here, in England, couldn't agree with you more.
I haven't had any television service in over 17 years and don't miss it one bit.
Charles Coburn was a favorite actor of mine. I always enjoyed the films he stared in. Loved his performance in the 1945 film called "A Royal Scandal!"
This was a gem! Entertaining and very funny. I just love Charles Coburn. He's one of my all time favorite actors. 😄
Thanks PizzaFlix!😍
I love any movie that Charles Coburn is in. This episode was just toooooo cute and entertaining...
Love Charles Coburn! Fun story!
Wonderful actor. Love his movies. His role in A Royal Scandal really showcased his timing.
a pleasure... witty, crafty, and tangled.
I love Coburn
TY for sharing
Charles couburn must have been natural comedian. What a great actor even at old age
I love Charles Coburn too. He was in a few movies with Jean Arthur who I also love.
Charles Coburn was such a mischievous (sp?) codger! The More the Merrier is my favorite CC film! TFS!
Can see where James got it.
2degucitas Oh yea! I didn't even think of James! Charles must have as fun and clever a father as he was an actor.
RU tell me that James Coburn Father I thought I knew everything I Guess I don't wowo

Lovely!Thank you have a great night
Nice appearance of Joy Lansing in this episode.
THANK YOU
With age comes knowledge and wisdom...(hopefully). Mr Carey is smart as a fox.
Discrimination based on age is illegal.
True, but, unlike other forms of discrimination, it's difficult to prove. SMH!
only people if stops thatYeah

Well he did smoke that pipe
Jack Benny was eternally 39.

Age discrimination
He seemed like a dedicated, hard worker. Why would they be trying to get rid of him?
