Our Miss Brooks
Various
Our Miss Brooks began as a radio series in 1948 and migrated to television in 1952 and soon became one of the first hits of the so-called "Golden Age of Television", and making famous Eve Arden (1908-1990) as Comely, a wisecracking, but humane high school English teacher Connie Brooks.

68% of "Our Miss Brooks" Episodes Were Unknown or Missing - Until Now

Sixty-eight percent of Our Miss Brooks' episodes were unknown or missing; that is, until "Jeff Chandler - Film, Record, Radio, Television and Theater Performances" by Jeff Wells (McFarland, 2005). The biography has titles and dates aired for the years that Chandler was contracted by CBS Radio (1947 to 1953); it's the most complete list known to exist of the cast and crew for the first five years of this radio series. What a pleasure to find Our Miss Brooks on-line; Eve Arden, Gale Gordon, Jeff Chandler... and what a supporting cast! The show is worth listening to - again and again and again.
Delightful to this day

As ridiculous as some of the premises of the show are, as well as her relationships to her students, I thoroughly enjoy every episode. The show is entertaining. Eve Arden is captivating.

While my first exposure to Miss. Brooks was the television program I have grown very fond of the radio show, yet, I must admit that being able to mentally visualize the regular actors has assisted in my great enjoyment.

Someone out of the goodness of their heart put these shows up for the enjoyment of others. People are human and sometime make errors or typos. Just enjoy the shows and try not to be so pissy.
Pardon the grammer.......

Miss Brooks taught all of us a very important lesson in her English class. Situation comedy can be hysterically funny without having to be dirty. Now quiet down class and enjoy today's lesson!

From Wikipedia. "Our Miss Brooks" "Our Miss Brooks has remained Eve Arden's most identifiable and popular role, with numerous surviving recordings of both the radio and television versions continuing to entertain listeners and viewers. (The surviving radio recordings include both its audition shows.) A quarter century after the show ended, Arden told radio historian John Dunning in an on-air interview just what the show and the role came to mean to her: I originally loved the theater. I still do. And I had always wanted to have a hit on Broadway that was created by me. You know, kind of like Judy Holliday and Born Yesterday. And I griped about it a little. And someone said to me, 'Do you realise that, if you had a hit on Broadway, probably a hundred or two hundred thousand people might have seen you in it, if you'd stayed in it long enough. And this way, you've been in Miss Brooks, everybody loves you, and you've been seen by millions.’ So, I figured I'd better shut up while I was ahead." Eve Arden is awsome, and can deliver dry wit like few others. I'm glad she didn't do Broadway, or we would not have these wonderful shows to enjoy today.
If it was aired I listened/watched it.

I need not say anything about how fantastic Eve Arden is, if someone would just listen to these shows, and watch a movie she was in such as "One Touch Of Venus," or Our Miss Brooks on television. I knew at the time that my buddies would laugh, so I kept it to myself, I had a crush on Eve Arden, and got as much of her as I could. My parents thought I was just enjoying a program with them, but no, I was hanging on her every word, and laughing a lot. By the time I had graduated college, Eve Arden had lost someone with a crush, and gained someone who has a lot of respect for her talent. If you don't enjoy Our Miss Brooks, please go see your physician.
