Gracie Wants George to Replace Gable - Pt 2

Yes, it's Maxwell's Coffee Time starring George Burns and Gracie Allen. The Earth truly build good wind, the music of Meredith Wilson and his orchestra, V. Benadarit, Elvia Almond and Bernafel. For your Thursday night comedy enjoyment is George and Gracie.

And for your everyday coffee drinking enjoyment, it's Maxwell's house. The coffee that gives you so much more for so little more, that is bought and enjoyed by more people than any other brand of coffee in the world.

Yes, Maxwell House, expertly blended and radiant roasted for rich mellow, extra flavor. Maxwell House, the coffee that's always good to the last drop. Last Thursday, Gracie had a brainstorm. She read that Metro Goldwyn Mayer planned to make a picture version of that best-selling book, The Huxters.

And since the book is all about radio, Gracie reasoned that George would be a natural for the lead. However, as George pointed out last Thursday, honey, Clark Gable is set for the picture. Oh, but that's ridiculous when they can get you.

Why, you can all Gable Gable with one ear tied behind you. Well, Gable is the lead, and that's that. Well, he won't be the lead when I'm through. Goodbye. Where you going? Well, I'm going to MGM and tell him to get the lead out.

Gracie, relax. Why are you so sad on me doing the picture? Well, because the Hux does is the story of the radio business and you practically started radio. Oh, honey. It's natural casting. If they were making a picture about the automobile business, they'd get a fellow who started that.

Blame Ford. Oh, yes. Henry's father. If they were making a picture about the washing machine business, they'd get William Benedict. Gracie... If they made a picture about the perfume business, they'd get a man who'd done the cologne.
