The Bickersons
Second Honeymoon
by
The Bickersons centers on John and Blanche Bickerson, a married couple whose arguments turn everyday domestic life into comic warfare. John is irritable and quick to complain, while Blanche is equally ready with a retort; their quarrels are the heart of the show.
The program presents their relationship through dialogue-driven radio comedy, with the couple’s bickering escalating over household routines, money, and the small frustrations of living together. Don Ameche and Frances Langford are closely associated with the roles, bringing a lively contrast to the characters’ exasperated exchanges.
The humor is sharp, familiar, and deliberately contentious, built around the rhythm of a couple who can turn almost any conversation into an argument. Listeners can expect a character-centered comedy whose appeal comes from the performers’ timing and the Bickersons’ endlessly combative partnership.
