When visiting the bank as a customer, George Burns finds out that Lucy is instinctively funny and asks her to become a partner in his show. Mr. Mooney, who thinks this is an opportunity to get rid of her, accepts being her agent. The show opens in Santa Monica, where the new pair appear in a Burns and Allen-style act. George Burns is the straight man and Lucy the comedienne, who delivers the punchlines.

How about putting the old reruns of chips and emergency on here ? I am 52 years old and I grew up when these TV shows were popular. I love both of these old TV shows and I would love to watch the old reruns once again
Lucy has real star-talent; have you seen her in serious drama roles ?? She has ‘presence’, she carries the scene.
The stand up routine of Ball and Burns was so funny. I kept laughing.
