About this Broadcast
-

Elizabeth and Alvin are a married couple who live an ordinary suburban life, but inevitably managed to get into predicaments. At the end of most predicaments, Alvin, in variable degrees of frustration, would say, "I shall leave you now, Elizabeth" and would walk out of sight. The announcer would say, "Elizabeth, aren't you ashamed?" She would slowly nod, but then, with a slightly devilish grin, would vigorously shake her head to indicate she wasn't.

Betty White (Actor) .. Elizabeth White
Born: January 17, 1922
Died: December 31, 2021
Birthplace: Oak Park, Illinois, United States
Trivia: Actress Betty White got her start in local Los Angeles television as the "telephone girl" for video emcee Al Jarvis. By early 1950 she was one of the stars of the daily, five-hour series Hollywood on Television. One of the highlights of this program was a husband and wife sketch titled "Life With Elizabeth," which when committed to film and syndicated nationally in 1953 became White's first starring TV sitcom. She went on to headline her own network variety series in 1954, then co-starred with Bill Williams in the weekly TV domestic comedy Date With the Angels (1957), which without Williams was retitled The Betty White Show in early 1958. For the next 15 years she made guest appearances on various variety and quiz show efforts, and toured the straw-hat theatrical circuit in such plays as Critics Choice and Who Was That Lady, often appearing opposite her husband, TV personality Allen Ludden. Two years after hosting the 1971 syndicated informational series The Pet Set, she guest-starred as libidinous "Happy Homemaker" Sue Ann Nivens on the fourth season opener of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. This Emmy-winning episode led to White being cast as an MTM regular; she remained with the series until its final episode in 1977. She then starred on her own short-lived sitcom (again titled The Betty White Show) before returning to the guest-star circuit. In 1985, she joined the cast of TV's The Golden Girls as middle-aged grief counselor Rose Nyland. This top-rated program lasted seven seasons before metamorphosing into the rather less successful Golden Palace (1992). White was a regular on the 1995 series Maybe This Time, and in 1997 she won an Emmy for her one-shot appearance on The John Laroquette Show. She was in the films Hard Rain and The Story of Us, as well as Lake Placid. In 2003 she was cast in Bringing Down the House, and in 2008 provided a voice for the American version of Ponyo. White developed a new generation in fans when she became the subject of a successful online campaign to get her to host Saturday Night Live - which she did in 2010, along with winning the SAG award for Life time Achievement. The year before, she had a part in the hit Sandra Bullock vehicle The Proposal. She also became the star of year another successful TV show when she was cast in the female-centric sitcom Hot in Cleveland. She lent her voice to the 2012 adaptation of The Lorax.
Del Moore (Actor) .. Alvin White
Born: January 01, 1916
Died: January 01, 1970
Trivia: Best known for playing supporting roles in several Jerry Lewis features, American funnyman Del Moore launched his career as a radio announcer. He made his feature-film debut in Lewis' Cinderfella (1960), after having appeared on the early television series Life With Elizabeth (1953-1955) starring opposite Betty White. In 1952, he appeared in the first of several So You Want To... Warner Bros. comedy shorts with George O'Hanlon.
Lois Bridge (Actor) .. Chloe Skinridge
Ray Erlenborn (Actor) .. Mr. Fuddy
Died: June 04, 2007
Trivia: A superior Hollywood craftsperson, Ray Erlenborn moved from acting into a highly specific arena -- that of sound effects artistry -- where he established himself as something of a maestro, not only with the engineering of aural special effects but with his own provision of voices for animated characters. A singer from the age of three, Erlenborn first toured with Hugo Hamlin's Proteges, and then Buddy Erlen and Dodo Reid on the vaudeville belt, followed by appearances as Spike of the Rinkeydink Gang in the "Winnie Winkle" shorts, and in scattered musical roles in Roy Rogers films. Erlenborn earned his most widespread fame decades later, however, by providing the voice of Rabbit in the Winnie the Pooh animated cartoons. During the 1960s and '70s, he also dubbed voices and laugh tracks for such series as The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour and The Carol Burnett Show.
