Please accept this entry about the Burns and Allen TV series. I have watched about 3/4 of the 292 episodes, and have also read numerous books and websites about B& A. I've enjoyed George Burns (with and without Gracie) in motion pictures.

Good job! smiley - smiley

Could you maybe mention that George Burns' birth name was Nathan Birnbaum?

Also, that Gracie Allen staged a satirical run for the presidency in 1940? Her party was the Surprise Party.

Not that it should be mentioned in the entry.

I continue to watch episodes on Youtube. I've just started the eighth (and last) season. I get a big kick out of Ronny Burns, the son of George and Gracie. He must have been popular with younger viewers.
