Jack Benny, George Burns, Tom Smothers, Dick Smothers | I Taught Him Everything He Knows
Комедия
George Burns and Jack Benny both take full credit for each other's act. They give their own take on 'I Taught Him Everything She Knows,' originally recorded by Billy Walker and then Ella Fitzgerald.
The Smothers Brothers
The Smothers Brothers, Tom and Dick, are one of the most iconic comedy duos in the history of television. Tom and Dick began performing as a duo in the late 1950s, playing in coffeehouses and clubs in San Francisco. Their act consisted of music, comedy, and witty banter, which quickly gained them a following.
The Smothers Brothers became a household name in the late 1960s with their variety show, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. The show was groundbreaking in its approach to comedy, pushing the boundaries with political satire and social commentary. The show also featured up-and-coming musical acts, including The Doors and The Who, and introduced the world to comedians like Steve Martin and George Carlin.
The Smothers Brothers' irreverent style has made them a beloved and enduring force in American comedy.

Jack didn't do impersonations often, but when he did he really nailed them.

Were a dying breed brother. If i mention there guys to my employees. It goes over 2 generations of employees.😂
George Burns and Jack Benny glaring at each other as guests on someone else's show? Another reasons why the Smothers Brothers was a brilliant show.
Jack nailed it with his impersonation of Tom .
Love the Smothers Brothers, but it’s real nice to see Jack Benny and George Burns again!

When comedy was KING! RIP Jack, George, and Tom.
Given that Steve Martin was a writer on the show, this bit feels like a clinic for his future work with Martin Short.
You're watching history. the best of the best.
If today's shows were only half this good.
Jack Benny as Tommy was absolutely delightful! And then to watch all 4 of them riff together was something really special.
Gotta admit, this was just pure gold.
Thanks, KZread, for these fantastic videos. RIP Tommy.
When George Burns was in his 90's he was asked ... "Why are you always seen with young ladies on your arm?" .. to which he replied with a grin .. "I like em when the skin still fits." Still an 'ol rascal ! 😂
Loved watching them all riff against each other. Classic comedy.
Smiles and chuckles abound watching these four give a master class in comedy.
Greatest straight man and comedian ever! Jack and George...
I love this comedy and love the delivery by fine comedians.
Absolutely wonderful. At 72 it brings back good memories.
RIP, Tommy. Oh how we love you.
So much talent, so much history, so much funny!
Lol maybe the funniest performance ive seen from each of them. I can understand their presence now.
This brought back so many memories. I loved all four of these men.
❤ Smothers Brothers RIP Tommy 🙏
This is absolutely awesome. True class all of them. I use to listen to the Jack Benny show as a teenager in the early 80’s. Just loved him. George too.
Classic right there
The best comedians this country has ever seen.
this is easily in the top ten of funniest things I have ever seen. bravo to legends.
Awww... Tommy, thanks give the fellas our love
Television was in its infancy and so were we.
Actually, "Who Taught Her Everything She Knows" is from the musical, Funny Girl. As it wasn't used in the film version, the song is not as well known today.
Love it!
For anyone wondering, Jack Benny is just 2 years younger than George Burns as he was born in 1894 and George in 1896. Though since Jack clearly uses hair coloring to make himself look younger than he really is.

If Jack was born in 1984 and George in 1896, that makes Jack two years OLDER than George. Not younger. Maybe you mixed up the years?

@@jerrilynhenson9024 Oops, Your’e right. It seems I got their birthdates reversed but nonetheless the age difference isn’t as great as Jack Benny’s hair dye job might have you believe.
Great comedians. All of them were totally unique. Nobody else like Benny, Burns or the Smothers Brothers. Now all you gotta do is say WTF? and you get laughs. And they are all pretty much the same.
Thank you so much!
A true bonding of comedic generations in this poignant clip. Damn......I'm old.
People are so dumbed down now, this kind of brilliance is over their heads.
Classic😂❤
This is so cool
People now wouldnt know talent if it was in the shower with them. RIP Tom.
Just wow, with a bit of envy.
Great
Where Tommy's violin? Nice of George and -Gracey- Jack to have the Smothers Bros on their show.
Back when actors were adults.
❤️❤️❤️
What year was this?
Haha
I think George should have been Tommy and actually nevermind
Date???
Its so strange now to see someone smoking on stage.
Were Jack and George comedians? It’s difficult to tell.
Corny. But entertaining.
Awww... Tommy, thanks give the fellas our love
