Jack Benny - CBS News Tribute/Obituary (Dec 29, 1974)
This special aired just days after Jack Benny's unexpected death from pancreatic cancer the day after Christmas, 1974. Hosted by Charles Kuralt, this is a respectful and well done tribute/obituary to a masterful performer and universally beloved human being. Includes a good deal of clips from the Jack Benny radio show and television show, as well as interviews with cast members Frank Nelson, Don Wilson and Mel Blanc. Also included, and not available anywhere else that I'm aware of, is film footage of Benny's funeral (@32:47). Among the mourners interviewed briefly are Danny Thomas, Ronald & Nancy Reagan, and Milton Berle. There's even a priceless record of Bob Hope's deeply moving eulogy (@35:28)-- George Burns was so overcome with grief he was unable to utter more than a few words before needing to be escorted from podium. A show both funny and emotionally moving-- just the kind of tribute a giant like Jack Benny deserved.- published: 30 Aug 2013

The Jack Benny Program - "Johnny Carson Show" - Pt. 1
Part 1: From Season 14, (1963-1964), broadcast October 22, 1963: Jack tells guest Johnny Carson he should be more versatile on The Tonight Show, so Johnny does card tricks, plays the drums, sings, and dances to "Ballin' the Jack." They do a mock version of the Tonight Show where we can hear Carson's thoughts about the guest he's interviewing (Benny). Carson can't believe how Jack never seems to age. Back in the dressing room, he finds out Jack's secret. The Jack Benny "replacement" dummy makes another appearance.- published: 31 Aug 2013
