Podcasts about miss duffy

Step into the lively and hilarious world of Duffy's Tavern, where “the elite meet to eat.” This classic radio sitcom, which aired from 1941 to 1951, invites listeners to the corner bar run by the fast-talking, ever-scheming Archie the Manager. With his knack for spinning wild ideas and getting into absurd situations, Archie keeps the laughs flowing as freely as the drinks. Set in a humble New York City tavern, the show's charm lies in its colorful cast of regulars and guest stars. Archie, played by Ed Gardner, is constantly juggling his harebrained schemes, sarcastic wisecracks, and interactions with eccentric customers. The show also features recurring characters like Miss Duffy, the lovelorn daughter of the bar's unseen owner, and Clifton Finnegan, the not-so-sharp neighborhood pal. This episode was originally broadcast December 21st, 1945 on NBC Radio.

Raised in Connecticut, she excelled in poetry, took up student acting, and eventually spent two years attending school in Switzerland, where she learned to speak French. On a family trip to the West Coast, she visited Warner Bros. studios, where her cousin Gordon Hollingshead worked as a producer. Director Anatole Litvak, taken by her beauty, convinced Gene to take a screen test. Warner Brothers wanted to sign her, but her father convinced her to stay home, enter society, and become a theater actress. She studied acting in Greenwich Village and soon found herself getting increasing roles on Broadway along with reviews about her acting prowess and natural beauty. Eventually Gene's father set up a company to fund her acting interests. She met Howard Hughes, who became a lifelong friend. In 1940 she starred as Patricia Stanley on Broadway in The Male Animal. Features in Life, Harper's Bazaar, and Vogue soon followed. Darryl Zanuck, head of 20th Century Fox, saw her both acting and later dancing at The Stork Club, and signed her to a contract. She debuted later that year in a supporting role, opposite Henry Fonda, in Fritz Lang's western, The Return of Frank James. By 1944 she'd made eleven films. That Autumn she wrapped up filming of Laura opposite Dana Andrews, Clifton Webb, and Vincent Price. Before its premiere in November she guest-starred on Duffy's Tavern on Friday, September 22nd. The brainchild of star Ed Gardner, Duffy's Tavern debuted as part of CBS's Forecast pilot series in 1940. It was hailed by critics as the most-original comedy of 1941. The fictitious bar was allegedly located in Manhattan on 3rd avenue and 23rd street. It was the “eyesore of the East side” where the “elite meet to eat.” Duffy never made an appearance, but his frequent phone calls were a constant source of anxiety. Gardner's heavily New York-accented Archie has inspired several characters in the years since, like Moe in The Simpsons. Eddie Green was Eddie, Marvin Miller announced, Sandra Gould was Miss Duffy, and Charlie Cantor was Finnegan. In September 1944 the show moved to NBC. This was the season's second episode. It pulled a rating of 11.3. Roughly nine million people tuned in.

"Miracle on Third Avenue" was the title of the "Duffy's Tavern" Christmas show on December 22, 1948. Starring Ed Gardner as Archie with guest star Jeff Chandler. Duffy's Tavern was located on 3rd Avenue and 23rd Street in NYC. (Factious address)... Archie destroys the English language with malaprops with almost every sentence that comes out of his mouth... so be sure to listen for them because the come fast and furious. Others heard in the show are Charlie Cantor as Clifton Finnegan, Alan Reed as Clancy the Cop, and Eddie Green as the waiter... Eddie. Miss Duffy is the tavern owner's daughter. I believe Shirley Booth plays that role. This show is a mixture of comedy and the Christmas spirit... that Archie is lacking at start of the show, but gets into it at the end. Nice Christmas show.

March 14th, 2022>Duffy's TavernGuests-Joan Davis & Newlywed Dinah Shore - from 1943(Armed Forces Radio) Often cast included Duffy's, Miss Duffy first played by Shirley Booth, Clifton Finnegan, Charlie Cantor,Eddie Green and Clancy the cop (Alan Reed).

Enjoy two free comedy episodes of Duffy's Tavern w/ Ed “Archie” Gardner A) 1/5/51 w/ guest, Vincent Price B) 2/9/51 w/ guest, Shelley Winters Managing a fly-infested dive-of-a-tavern that had pretensions to be something much more was a weekly struggle for Archie the barkeep of Duffy's Tavern. His unhappy conversations with his boss, Duffy (who was an absentee owner) occurred over the telephone at the beginning of each episode. Miss Duffy, Duffy's man-hungry daughter and would-be singer, warned the gullible Archie of the evils of get-rich-quick schemes and made fun of his attempts to compete against other taverns in New York City. The resulting sitcom was hilarious and hugely popular. Created by Ed Gardner, who also played the role of Archie, the weekly comedy featured Eddie Green, a wisecracking black porter who often managed to get the upper hand. Other tavern regulars, including the dim-witted Finnegan and Clancy the cop, proved that intellectual discussions would never get beyond first-grade level. Writer Abe Burrows (whose son James Burrows created the sitcom Cheers) gave Archie license to misuse and mangle the English language in every episode, as well as deliver brilliant malapropisms. The highlight of the show, and what helped make it so successful, was the weekly guest spot. Hollywood celebrities would, for various reasons, drop in from time to time to discover that the rumors were true: the tavern was beyond any assistance. Exchanges were peppered with offensive barbs and no celebrity was immune to Archie's sarcasm. Listeners tuned in each week (from 1940 until 1951) just to hear their screen favorites insulted on the air.

Tonight it’s the big testimonial dinner and Archie is telling Duffy over the phone that Georgie Jessel is coming down to Duffy’s Tavern and other people beside. Who’s the testimonial dinner for? Why Archie of course. Join in the fun along with Archie and his gang Finnegan, Miss Duffy and Eddie and also appearing Rudy Vallee.

Duffy's Tavern, an American radio situation comedy (CBS, 1941-1942; NBC-Blue Network, 1942-1944; NBC, 1944-1952), often featured top-name stage and film guest stars but always hooked those around the misadventures, get-rich-quick-scheming, and romantic missteps of the title establishment's malaprop-prone, metaphor-mixing manager, Archie, played by the writer/actor who co-created the show, Ed Gardner. In the show's familiar opening, "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling," either solo on an old-sounding piano or by a larger orchestra, was interrupted by the ring of a telephone and Gardner's New Yorkese accent as he answered, "Duffy's Tavern, where the elite meet to eat. Archie the manager speakin'. Duffy ain't here — oh, hello, Duffy." Duffy, the owner, was never heard (or seen, when a film based on the show was made in 1945 or when a bid to bring the show to television was tried in 1954). But Archie always was — bantering with Duffy's man-crazy daughter, Miss Duffy (played by several actresses, beginning with Gardner's real-life first wife, Shirley Booth); with Eddie, the waiter/janitor (Eddie Green); and, especially, with Clifton Finnegan (Charlie Cantor), a likeable soul with several screws loose and a knack for falling for every other salesman's scam. THIS EPISODE: November 2, 1943. Program #25. Blue network origination, AFRS rebroadcast. Guest Charles Coburn is enticed into a poker game down at the tavern. Charles Coburn, Ed Gardner, Florence Halop, Peter Van Steeden and His Orchestra. 1/2 hour.

The show featured many high-profile guest stars, including Fred Allen, Mel Allen, Nigel Bruce, Bing Crosby, Boris Karloff, Veronica Lake,Peter Lorre, Tony Martin, Gene Tierney, Arthur Treacher and Shelley Winters. As the series progressed, Archie sllipped in and out of a variety of quixotic, self-imploding plotlines---from writing an opera to faking a fortune to marry an heiress. Such situations mattered less than did the show's quietly clever depiction of earthbound-but-dreaming New York city life and its individualistic, often bizarre characters.
