You're a poor me a cup, Gracie. You know Maxwell House is always good to the last... Drop. That drop's good too. Yes, it's Maxwell House Coffee Time, transcribed in Hollywood, and starring George Burns and Gracie Allen.
With our special guest, Robert Montgomery, yours truly, Toby Reed, Beola Bond, Gail Gordon, Harry Lubin, and the Maxwell House Orchestra, and Bill Goodwin. For America's Thursday night comedy, enjoyment is George and Gracie. And for America's everyday coffee drinking enjoyment, it's Maxwell House, always good, to the last drop.
Well, as we join the Burnsers today, we find Gracie reading from her favorite section of the newspaper, the movie page. George, look at me and kind of tilt your head to one side. That's it, now grin.
What's the big idea? Oh, the Wellapostons has a big article here about Robert Montgomery with a picture of him together. I was just comparing you two. There's a remarkable resemblance. Who would like that if you look just like Levala Parsons?
Had a hopper or be jealous. I thought you meant I looked like Robert Montgomery. Oh, you look better than Montgomery. Better? Well, certainly, and more mature. Robert's, Robert Montgomery is cute and a boy or sort of a way, but you look like you've lived.
Live, lived, lived. Okay, okay, hold on. I'm mature. Yes. You know, two old woman Robert Montgomery looks just like a great big mess to this boy. Uh, Mr. Miss Boy. Yes. In fact, the girls in my club voted him the juvenile they most like to be with when he's delinquent.
Nice piece of voting. You know, he's got sort of a devilish twinkle in his eye. I haven't got that twinkle, eh? For years it settles down to more of a reddish glow. Well, I'm nice to have her on in case you lose something.
