The Mel Blanc Show is a radio situation comedy that features Mel Blanc as the main character playing a hapless fix-it shop owner. In this show, he does not perform any character impersonations or use any of his famous cartoon voices, instead using his natural voice. The comedy revolves around Mel's misadventures with his girlfriend Betty Colby and the interactions with the other wacky characters on the show. These recurring characters include Zookie, a stuttering helper, Mr. Colby, Betty's father, Mr. Cushing, lodge president, Mr. Potchnik, piano teacher, and various others who pop up from time to time, giving ample opportunities for Mel to display his comedic talents.</p><p>The Mel Blanc Show aired on the CBS Radio Network from September 3, 1946 to June 24, 1947. A total of 42 episodes are known to exist today. The show was sponsored by Colgate Tooth Powder and featured talented actors such as Mary Jane Croft, Joseph Kearns, Hans Conreid, Alan Reed, Earle Ross, Jim Backus, and Bea Benaderet. Mel Blanc, best known for voicing popular cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, brought his unique talents and versatile voice acting to the show, making it a memorable part of radio history.
