The Jack Benny Program

Jack Does Opera (12x12)

:

The monologue is about TV make-up. Jack introduces Roberta Peters, who sings the "Shadow song" from Dinorah by Meyerbeer. At Jack's home, after the show, Don threatens to quit because Jack cut the Lipton Tea commercial from the show, but decides not to when Jack confiscates his Lipton teabag. Rochester makes Jack a fried egg sandwich without leaving the living room, using his extendable hand. Jack plays a record Peters has given him and daydreams about singing a scene from La Traviata with her.
