<description>Burns and Allen  1932 - 1950, George Burns and Gracie Allen were performers who successfully moved their standup comedy act to radio. There were, in total, over 120 episodes of the situation comedies featuring George and Gracie as a married couple, which they were in real life. The audiences loved Gracie, she was too dainty and ladylike for anyone to even conceive disliking her. As George soon learnt He was quoted as saying -I learned that if I blew a puff of cigar smoke in Gracies direction the audience would hate me- Burns and Allen went on to TV, as did many of the greatest radio stars that had worked in vaudeville.</description>

George Burns and Gracie Allen were performers who successfully moved their stand-up comedy act to radio. There were, in total, over 120 episodes of the situation comedies featuring George and Gracie as a married couple, which they were in real life. The audiences loved Gracie, she was too dainty and ladylike for anyone to even conceive disliking her. As George soon learnt He was quoted as saying -I learned that if I blew a puff of cigar smoke in Gracies direction the audience would hate me- Burns and Allen went on to TV, as did many of the greatest radio stars that had worked in vaudeville.</itunes:summary>

            <description>Well George has had a pretty rough week what with Meredith Wilson and his joke book occupying the den. But this morning the little man has decided to be happy come what may as he strolls in to the living room with a song on his lips. But there is one thing George does not know. Going on in the den is a meeting of Graciess club, the Beverly Hills Uplift Society. Unaware of the frightful doom that lies in wait he cheerfully scratches himself and looks around for his wife.</description>

George Burns and Gracie Allen were performers who successfully moved their stand-up comedy act to radio. There were, in total, over 120 episodes of the situation comedies featuring George and Gracie as a married couple, which they were in real life. The audiences loved Gracie, she was too dainty and ladylike for anyone to even conceive disliking her. As George soon learnt He was quoted as saying -I learned that if I blew a puff of cigar smoke in Gracies direction the audience would hate me- Burns and Allen went on to TV, as did many of the greatest radio stars that had worked in vaudeville.</itunes:summary>

In fact he is been living at the Allen home trying to find out how a mind of her type functions. According to the theory of psychiatry one can tell the inner workings of a mind by watching the persons reactions but Gracie rarely says a sane word.</description>
