Just watched a marathon this weekend on Anttv. Was not born when it went off the air. The reruns are hilarious. I love Gracie! What a pair they were!

Sadly the couples program is largely lost in history. I have a dvd set of their programs, they are funny, clever, unique, modern, interesting

Hilarious TV show (thankfully, many episodes are on YouTube to enjoy)! Who couldn't love Gracie?

I've been watching reruns on the Saturday nights at 2:00 & 2:30 am. I love how George would "break the fourth wall" and talk directly to the studio audience and home viewers.
