The Burns and Allen Show starred American comedy duo George Burns and Gracie Allen. The pair portrayed a married couple who entertained radio audiences with their contrasting personalities and banter. Burns, playing the straight man, often found himself flustered by the hilariously convoluted logic of his addle-headed wife, Allen. Balancing humor and warmth, the show's format often involved the duo engaging in humorous domestic situations and misunderstandings, as well as interacting with characters played by other actors on the show.
The Burns and Allen Show originally started airing in September 1934 under the title The Adventures of Gracie, before adopting its more well-known title in 1936. It aired on both the NBC and CBS radio networks, eventually wrapping up in May 1950. The show then transitioned to television as a situation comedy, which ran from 1950 to 1958, earning 11 Primetime Emmy Award nominations. The Burns and Allen Show was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 1994, and the duo received a Television Hall of Fame induction in 1988.
