Fibber McGee and Molly are timeless and will remain in our hearts and lurk happily behind our smiles forever.  They entertained us for decades.

Fibber and Molly were a typical married couple living in a small town of 60 years ago.  Fibber was a fibber and the world's most accomplished exaggerator.  His loveable ness came, perhaps, from his ability to make a fool of himself with such unrelenting vigor and certainty. The McGees were surrounded by loveable neighbors who dropped in for visits nearly every week.  Many of them, such as Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve, Fibber's feuding friend, went on to be successes on their own.  For example, the Great Gildersleeve is available to us all, just as Fibber and Molly are. These shows were written by Don Quinn, famous for his "The Halls of Ivy."   Musical Direction was by Billy Mills who was well known across America, and also well known for his Bread and Butter Pickles, "Good alone or with somebody,"  which won first prize at the Los Angeles County Fair year after Year.  This reviewer makes and gives them as Christmas gifts each year. Under Mr. Mills direction, The Kings Men provided songs each week for over 13 years. With Harlow Wilcox serving as announcer and working  floating commercials for Johnson's Wax into the center of each program, everything necessary for success was present, and the Fibber McGee and Molly show was overwhelmingly successful.  It was known as the most listened to show on the air.   You will enjoy it and listen to it with all the rapture and pleasure and laughter we did so many years ago.  The recommendation is that you get as many of the programs as swiftly as you can.
