The Jack Benny Program - 8x16 Hillbilly Act

Instead of going out to play golf as he had planned, Jack has to go to the office because there is no script for his next show yet. He harangues his writers, and then finds an old script for them to rework. Then he tells his manager he won't work with the writers or come in for the first few rehearsals because he has been working too hard; he is going to play golf instead. His manager reminisces about the days before Jack became a difficult star, and tells Jack's secretary how he discovered Jack in Arkansas playing the fiddle as Zeke Benny and his Ozark Hillbillies. In a flash-back, they play 'You are my sunshine,' 'Fascinatin' rhythm,' and 'Puttin' on the Ritz.'
