It's Tuesday, so that means it's Fibber McGee and Molly's day. In this episode Fibber and Guildersleeve get embroiled in a property line dispute and a surveyor is called for. Harlow really cuts it up in this one. It's more disorganized than usual. One gets the impression they treated the script rather broadly. That's part of the beauty of these early shows. In the latter half of the 1940 season we'll hear evidence of a clear attempt to tighten things up - probably on the insistence of the network who suddenly realized they had a most unlikely most popular program on radio on their hands. I'm sure they were laughing all the way to the bank. By the end of 1940, however, we'll return to the soundstage chaos we so love about this program.





That brings up an interesting problem here with presenting a whole year of programs in less than a year. As you can tell, we are still in Springtime in Wistful Vista. What I have decided to do is present an additional episode every Thursday, as well as the usual Tuesday one, until we get caught up. That should get us in line with radio reality by Summer's end. I surely don't want to miss any of this 1940 season which only seems to be lacking a few episodes - one of which I was able to find in script form, and posted earlier.
