Best Old Time Radio Podcast with Bob Bro May 31, 2021 - OTR Comedies The Burns & Allen Show - "Gracie Adopts Mickey Rooney" When Gracie reads about Mickey Rooney in a movie magazine she is shocked at all of the things the young boy is allowed to do -- like drive a car. Convinced he needs parental guidance, she explains to George why they should adopt Mickey -- even though George tries to explain Rooney is a full-grown man. Meanwhile, the studio wants Rooney to do yet another juvenile picture. Fed up with playing teens, Mickey wants a serious role so decides to hide out someplace the studio can't find him. When Gracie comes calling with her offer to adopt him, he sees a perfect opportunity to remain undercover. Hilarious episode!
