Mr. Webber is the first "Maytag Repairman", the late Jesse White.

Iris also tured up on Bob's 1981 Christmas show as his cynical landlord {"Come up with a C-note, or you're out on your ASCAP card!!"} in a sketch where Brooke Shields appears as a genie {"WHAT? I, a direct descendent of the original Scheherazade, indulge in crass commerce? How DARE you!!" {vanishes}/"Who the heck is Scheherazade?"/"I think she runs a Lebanese restraurant in Eagle Rock!"}.

LOL. Thanks.

The Secretary is played by actress Iris Adrian. She played quite a few Jack Benny episodes, and played "Hard Head Hogan" in an episode of The Lucy Show ("Lucy Meets The Law"), which you have already uploaded.

Hi Marc. I'm sorry I overlooked this comment. I remember "Hard Head Hogan" from that Lucy episode. She was great. Thanks for commenting.

No problem :-)

God, I LOVE The Jack Benny show. But as much as I love it, I wish I could see more than the occasional public domain episode here and there. I'm kind of a completist. I would love to see ALL Jack Benny tv episodes from the first one to the last one, and in their proper chronological order . I hope for an official and proper season by season DVD release someday. (I already own quite a few episodes on DVD, but theyre all random public domain episodes)

I understand and agree. You would think that an official, complete collection on DVD would be available. There should be a huge market for it.
