4.0 out of 5 stars
Jack still holds up
So many years later, this is still funny. I have long been a fan of the Jack Benny Program on old time radio, but had never seen the television shows. I was surprised though, how good the first episode looked and sounded. Frankly I expected worse. While the New Year's show is only so-so, the Christmas episode is superb. It's a testament to both how well...

2.0 out of 5 stars
Christmas with Jack Benny
The DVD had two shows. The first show was very funny. The second show was a New Year's program and it wasn't very funny.

While the New Year's show is only so-so, the Christmas episode is superb. It's a testament to both how well developed his character miserly was and to the writing that made him so. It's easy to see why he was quietly one of the giants of comedy. He works the comedic pause better than anyone. While the DVD itself offers pretty much nothing more than the two episodes, I recommend it based on the relatively cheap price and the merits of the Christmas show alone. I suspect that this will become regular holiday viewing for me for years to come.
