The credit goes to author Paul Rhymer. The cast members were unanimous on that point. He should be counted among the great American humorists

There were 3, 30 minute episodes made for TV in 1949 and 7, 15 minute episodes made for TV in 1957. Since this includes Eddie Gillilan as Rush, and is 15 minutes long, this can only be the 1957 version.
Treasure as rare as King Tut's tomb, but funnier!
It's hard to believe that this still exists; This is a MUST_SEE for all fans of the remarkable Old Time Radio Vic and Sade series. It is hard to enjoy the humor in this little vignette; you're too busy staring at the crude film quality. With no sets and no blocking, this really isn't a TV show; a filmed radio show is more accurate. But if this is a 1957 filming, it is the very year Mr Harvey died, and sadly, he looks it. "Eddie Gillian" Rush Gook, is an uncanny sound-alike for Bill Idelson. Proctor and Gamble deliberately destroyed most of the radio recordings since they were "taking up space" so let's thank our lucky Philo T. Farnsworths that this little gem escaped their clutches.
It doesn't matter whether this show is any good or not. I'm giving it 5/5 just because it's ULTRA RARE! Thanks to whoever uploaded this rare example of early TV. I just wish it was better preserved, since I have poor hearing so I cannot understand what the characters are saying. This TV broadcast is so RARE that I give it 5/5. Plus, it's a Kinescope, and I love Kinscopes!

The humor of Vic and Sade - Part 2Life Of Riley - Rileys Firstborn starring Jackie Gleason ( Part 1 )HoldorFold2010-03-08 | Life Of Riley - Rileys Firstborn starring Jackie Gleason ( Part 1 )Season1 Episode 16 Jan 17, 1950
Commentary provided by YT'er " fromthesidelines "
This episode (as all 26 were in the Gleason TV series) was adapted from a original radio script; this one was originally heard, with William Bendix, Paula Winslowe and John Brown, on March 4, 1945.
Incidentally, this episode originally aired WITHOUT a laugh track; Irving Brecher later admitted he couldn't afford to use one at the time {in fact, he was paying $2000 every week, out of his own pocket, to film the show because Pabst wouldn't give him an increase in production money}. When he finally reissued the series in 1977, he had a laugh track [and applause] added.
The Life of Riley, with William Bendix in the title role, is a popular American radio situation comedy series of the 1940s that was adapted into a 1949 feature film, a long-run 1950s television series (originally with Jackie Gleason as Reilly) and a 1958 Dell comic book.
The show began as a proposed Groucho Marx radio series, The Flotsam Family, but the sponsor balked at what would have been essentially a straight head-of-household role for the comedian. Then producer Irving Brecher saw Bendix as taxicab company owner Tim McGuerin in Hal Roach's The McGuerins from Brooklyn (1942). The Flotsam Family was reworked with Bendix cast as blundering Chester A. Riley, a wing riveter at the fictional Cunningham Aircraft plant in California. His frequent exclamation of indignation became one of the most famous catch phrases of the 1940s: "What a revoltin' development this is!" The radio series benefited from the immense popularity of a supporting character, Digby "Digger" O'Dell (John Brown), "the friendly undertaker."
...and "I LOVE LUCY", in its earlier seasons, sometimes used (and rewrote) scripts originally heard on Lucille Ball's radio show, "MY FAVORITE HUSBAND" {same writers}. And '"THE ADVENTURES OF OZZIE & HARRIET" did the same thing [in fact, the first two years of their TV show overlapped the last two seasons of the original radio show].
The first season of William Bendix's TV version of "THE LIFE OF RILEY", in 1953, also used scripts adapted from earlier radio episodes- WITHOUT Irving Brecher or his other writers' credits; Brecher "leased" the rights to the series to NBC in late 1952 for a 15 year period, because they wanted to produce a Bendix TV version for early '53 (that lasted five years). After 1967, Brecher regained the rights to the series, and BOTH versions of the TV show, which he syndicated from 1977 through '86.
This was heard over the opening title (also featured on the radio version starring William Bendix):
"Oh, it's the life of Riley when it's Pabst Blue Ribbon you drink,
The 'finest beer served anywhere', so let the glasses clink,
Oh, east or west or north or south, there's nothing like it at all,
Sure, you're living the life of Riley when for Pabst Blue Ribbon you call,
Yes, you're living the life of Riley, when for Pabst Blue Ribbon you call,
When for Pabst Blue Ribbon you call!!".
Originally, an advertising jingle for the series' sponsor, Pabst Blue Ribbon beer, was heard over the opening title; Irving Brecher, the creator/producer, substituted the original theme, heard in the earlier episodes, in the syndicated version of this episode in the late '70s. There was also a plug for the sponsor, where Riley says he's going out "and get some Pabst Blue Ribbon"- the sponsor's name was muted, but he DOES return at the end carrying a Pabst six-pack {"Well, I got the drinks"}.Life Of Riley - Rileys Firstborn starring Jackie Gleason ( Part 2 )HoldorFold2010-03-08 | Season1 Episode 16 Jan 17, 1950

The Jack Benny estate owns the original color videotape master, 'Holdor'. Until it's released on DVD (or whatever), you'll have to be satisfied with this black and white "kinnie". But you can take comfort in the fact that most viewers saw this in monochrome, because less than half of all U.S. households owned a color TV set; NBC was the ONLY network offering a 95% prime-time color schedule in 1965-'66 [CBS had about 50%, ABC, 45%]- not until 1966 did all three offer 100% color in prime-time.
