The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show, aka The Burns and Allen Show, began on CBS Television.
The show was originally staged live before a studio audience
(during its first three months, it originated from the Mansfield Theatre in New York, then
relocated to CBS' Columbia Square facilities in Los Angeles). Ever
the businessman, Burns realized it would be more efficient to do the series on
film (beginning in the fall of 1952); the half-hour episodes could then be
syndicated. From that point on, the show was shot without a live audience
present, however, each installment would be screened before an audience to
provide live responses prior to the episodes being broadcast. With 291
episodes, the show had a long network run through 1958 and continued in
syndicated reruns for years.
