Just a few months out of the war and Fibber McGee and Molly were showing a lightheartedness in this show. There's a place where Doc (played by Arthur Q Bryan, who also voiced Elmer Fudd) makes a mistake and Fibber subtly picks on him and causes the entire cast to lose it completely in front of the audience. You might wonder why they didn't just edit that part out. It's because Fibber McGee and Molly was broadcast live, coast to coast, until at least 1948, based on what I've found.
