The Mel Blanc Show was a radio situation comedy that aired on CBS from September 3, 1946, to June 24, 1947. Mel Blanc, known for his countless character impersonations and the voice of many cartoon characters, played himself as the bumbling owner of a fix-it shop that never managed to fix anything. The show featured Mel's natural voice, but also allowed for his talents to shine through various characters and impersonations. The supporting cast included Mary Jane Croft, Joseph Kearns, Hans Conried, Alan Reed, and others.
The show's theme revolved around impossible situations made to seem real, focusing on Mel's interactions with his girlfriend, her father, and a variety of quirky characters. A key expression from the show was "ugga-ugga-boo, ugga-boo-boo-ugga," which was the password for Mel's lodge, the Benevolent Order of Loyal Zebras. Despite its talented cast and the undeniable voice skills of Blanc, the show struggled to find its footing and ended its run on June 24, 1947.
