4.9/5 (22986 ratings)

Description:"Say Goodnight, Gracie!" is a nostalgic look at one of American's favorite television shows: "The Burns & Allen Show." Beginning with George Burns and Gracie Allen's first meeting in 1922 backstage, after one of George's vaudeville acts, "Say Goodnight, Gracie!" follows the careers of two of the best-loved comedians of all time: the beginning of their own vaudeville act together; the radio show that launched them both as stars; and the wildly popular television show (conceived in 1950) that put them into the homes of millions. This book is a comprehensive ‘backstage look’ at the making of this historic TV show – how the writers contrived that delicious misinterpretation of Gracie’s world; the real Gracie and George vs. the characters they play; and an early look at broadcast television - kinescopes, then the coaxial cable – and loaded with George’s comedic wisdom and dialog from the series! The comedy is timeless. The genius behind the show may have been George Burns, who played the "straight man," but the one who got the laughs was Gracie, whose "illogical logic" made the show catch on like wildfire.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
