FIBBER MCGEE AND MOLLY SHOW
Fibber McGee and Molly was a radio show that played a major role in determining the full form of what became classic, old-time radio. The series was a pinnacle of American popular culture from its 1935 premiere until its end in 1959. One of the longest-running comedies in the history of classic radio in the United States, Fibber McGee and Molly has stood the test of time in many ways, transcending the actual or alleged limitations of its medium, form and concurrent culture. Join us as we return to 79 Wistful Vista in a Midwestern city where the popular shows took place where we can once again laugh at the adventures of Fibber McGee and Molly.
