Jack On GE Theater

Postby speedy » Wed Feb 09, 2011 9:58 am

I'm sure that most veterans of this board have seen these, but in case some new members are unaware, I thought I'd mention the two GE Theater appearances by Jack that are available on the Internet Archive. While not strictly comedy, they are very enjoyable, and Jack is whimsical in the lead role in each. Besides, any chance to see Jack in a new role I'm sure would be welcome. Here are the links:

I watched those two episodes a couple of weeks ago since they were on one of the DVDs I got for Christmas. Both utterly delightful, but there was something about The Face is Familiar that struck me as downright funny towards the end. I don't think it would have been so funny with any other person playing the main character except Jack.

And, oh, how nice to see a young Ronald Reagan.
