The Bickersons – 1946-1951
This was a thirty-minute comedy series featuring the quarrelsome husband and wife, John and Blanche Bickerson, played by Don Ameche and Frances Langford. The bickering usually began when Blanche could not sleep because of her husband’s incessant snoring. She woke him constantly to tell him off, turning domestic bliss into all-out warfare! There were actually only around 18 episodes broadcast named the Bickersons although that is the name by which most people remember all three shows, previously called Drene Time and The Old Gold Show.
