Fibber McGee And Molly 1110 Episodes
Fibber McGee and Molly was one of radio’s most beloved situation comedies, a program that helped define the medium’s golden age with its blend of small-town humor, endearing characters, and memorable running gags. Set in the fictional town of Wistful Vista, the show followed the daily adventures and misadventures of Fibber McGee, a well-meaning but bumbling dreamer, and his patient, wisecracking wife Molly. The comedy came from Fibber’s exaggerated tales, harebrained schemes, and colorful neighbors, all anchored by Molly’s sharp wit and good sense.
With its warm humor, unforgettable catchphrases, and legendary sound effects, Fibber McGee and Molly became a staple of American entertainment for nearly two decades.
The Stars
The series starred the husband-and-wife team of Jim Jordan as Fibber and Marian Jordan as Molly. Their natural chemistry, quick timing, and Midwestern charm gave the show its heart.
The supporting cast became just as iconic, including:
Harold Peary as Gildersleeve (later spun off into The Great Gildersleeve)
Bill Thompson as the Old Timer and Wallace Wimple
Arthur Q. Bryan as Doc Gamble
Harlow Wilcox as the show’s announcer and clever product pitchman
Key Dates
• Fibber McGee and Molly premiered on NBC Radio on April 16, 1935.
• It continued in prime time until 1956, with shorter segments and reruns extending into the early 1960s.
• Sponsored primarily by Johnson’s Wax, the program was one of the longest-running and most successful comedy series in radio history.
Other Information
The show became famous for its recurring gags, including Fibber’s overstuffed closet (always followed by a thunderous crash when opened), Molly’s exasperated “’Tain’t funny, McGee!” and the colorful array of eccentric neighbors who populated Wistful Vista.
Unlike more topical comedies, Fibber McGee and Molly relied on character-driven humor, making it timeless. Its success helped inspire later domestic sitcoms on both radio and television.
The program also had cultural significance: it provided comfort and laughter during the Great Depression, World War II, and postwar years. Its characters felt like part of the family for millions of listeners.
Today, Fibber McGee and Molly is remembered as one of the crown jewels of radio comedy—an enduring classic whose humor, heart, and sound effects remain legendary.
