Created by comedy writer Philip Rapp... even today the Bickersons (Don Ameche as John and Frances Langford as Blanche) have become synonymous with wrangling spouses. This is not Ozzie and Harriet or Father Knows Best... the show dared reveal the down and dirty underbelly of married life... verbal warfare- that was also hilarious. As part of "The Drene Show" -(Drene was a popular shampoo of the 1940's) this episode aired in 1947 - the comedy features Danny Thomas as Blanche's brother Amos. Two skits are at the end of the show with the remainder of the program including some comedy routines with Danny Thomas and a song by Frances Langford. One skit is entitled "John Needs His Tonsils Out" and the other "Blanche Learns To Drive A Car" - Listen to the dialog... it is very cleverly written and very funny.
