The Mel Blanc Show - Single Episodes


(4.8 stars; 58 reviews)

The Mel Blanc Show was born from Mel Blanc's success on The Jack Benny Program, leading to his own radio show on the CBS Radio Network. It aired from September 3, 1946, to June 24, 1947. In this show, Blanc portrayed himself as the hapless owner of a fix-it shop, along with a variety of comical support characters.

Blanc's talent brought to life numerous beloved cartoon characters, including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig. The show also featured regular characters played by Mary Jane Croft, Joseph Kearns, and others, with musical contributions from The Sportsmen Quartet.

Mel Blanc is greatness


(5 stars)

One of my all-time favorites when it comes to radio comedies. I've listened to every episode at least twice and still laugh my head off silly to them. Thanks you OTRR you guys are so blessed.

Wonderful find to share with children.

love it ?

There's a reason you never heard this show


(3 stars)

I love Mel Blanc cartoons but there is a reason he only had this one short-lived radio show. It is mildly funny in spots, incredibly bad in others. The pointless character for whom he does a voice that is sort of a mix between Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd is painfully bad. Oh, well. Despite this embarrassing blot, he's still a national treasure.

not possibly, but obviously a repeat


The Missing Bread Slices is actually a repeat of #24. Maybe if these "researchers" wasted less time on posting the silly "certified" definitions repeatedly, they would have a chance to check for duplicates before uploading.

classic old favourite

I love this show! So fun, cute, and light hearted. it's a very well written audio slap stick situational comedy and I'm so glad this platform provides access to this show.
