Jack and Johnny Carson exchange compliments with each other. Johnny says that Jack is his idol, but he has some constructive criticism. He tells Jack his delivery is too slow and accuses him of stealing all of his mannerisms. Jack is insulted! As Johnny begins a monologue, Don interrupts and does a Lucky Strike commercial. In the sketch, a frightened Jack runs home and turns off the lights, telling Rochester he's being followed by a man in a trench coat. A couple of rocks come through the window with notes attached telling him to leave town. The police capture the stalker; it's Dennis Day, angry because he wasn't on the show this week. In the epilogue, Dennis sings "Love and Marriage" with a new verse called "Jack and Money". Jack has one line in the song, forgets it, and starts laughing.
THE JACK BENNY PROGRAM appeared infrequently during its first two years on CBS-TV. In his first season (1950–1951), Jack only performed on four shows, but by the 1951-1952 season, he was ready to do one show approximately every six weeks. During the 1953-1954 season, The Jack Benny Program aired every three weeks. From 1954 to 1960, the program aired every other week, rotating with such shows as Private Secretary and Bachelor Father.
After the radio show ended in 1955, Benny took on another biweekly series, becoming a regular on Shower of Stars, CBS's hourlong comedy/variety anthology series, effectively appearing almost every week on one of the two series; it was on Shower of Stars that Benny's character finally turned 40, throwing a large birthday party for the occasion. Beginning in the 1960–1961 season, The Jack Benny Program began airing every week. The show moved from CBS to NBC prior to the 1964-65 season. During the 1953-54 season, a handful of episodes were filmed during the summer and the others were live, a schedule which allowed Benny to continue doing his radio show.
