JACK BENNY CAUSES THE FIRST CHRISTMAS BLACK FRIDAY

I have to admit, this is a little grim for a sitcom, but the holidays aren't a happy occasion for everybody.......




Maybe I'll post the full episode as well at some point.....

Ho ho ho?

It's always interesting when you see how casually and mostly for comic effect the subject of suicide was often treated in classic TV and movies. Such a difference from today's take on the serious subject. I'm trying to recall where I just saw another old comedy show joke about suicide...can't remember but will add it here if I can! Love Jack Benny!

There's an old Screwy Squirrel cartoon in which he shot himself in the head and the body went flying backwards. All visualized in the cartoon. I guess that put the kibosh an any franchise with the character.....
