George Burns George Burns George Burns George Burns
rdfs:comment
An honored comedian who became even more famous as the original Hollywood Cool Old Guy. Born in 1896, Burns played in Vaudeville and eventually started a double act with a young woman, Gracie Allen. However, Burns soon found that while she was his comic foil, she was getting more laughs with her comments than his best jokes. Being humble enough to bow to reality, Burns flipped the act and became the Straight Man and Grace Allen carried the heavy comedic lifting as the team Burns and Allen on stage, radio and television. There is no evidence that he did... there is also no evidence that he didnt! George Burns was an American comedian, actor and writer. He appeared as himself on The Muppet Show in episode 210, as well as the TV documentaries Magic in the Magic Kingdom and The Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park Grand Opening. A cameo intended for Burns was written in the original script "George," Kermit's old friend in the swamp. For unknown reasons, this scene did not appear in the movie. George Burns (1896-1996) was a vaudeville-trained comedian, actor and singer. His earliest fame came from co-starring with his wife, Gracie Allen, as the team of Burns and Allen. Burns played the straight man to his wife's dizzy antics and unique logic. Their partnership spanned stage work, films (including A Damsel in Distress with Fred Astaire), and the long-running Burns and Allen radio series, which began in 1932 and lasted until 1950. The show was then transferred to television (retitled The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show), and ran until 1958, when Gracie Allen retired. George Burns, born Nathan Birnbaum, was a famous comedian and actor. Burns appeared in the episode, "Cancelled", as one of the forms Najix took to appear more familiar to the boys. He also appeared as a resident of Hell in "Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?" and "Hell on Earth 2006". Kenny McCormick sees George Burns as he falls into Hell in the film, South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. George Burns ist der kleine Bruder von Charles Montgomery Burns. Er stellt den real existierenden Komiker und Schauspieler George Burns als kind dar. Kategorie:Kleincharaktere Kategorie:Familie Burns Kategorie:Männlich Kategorie:Kinder George Burns was a 20th century American comedian and television actor. He was married to Gracie Allen. They performed together as the comedy duo "Burns and Allen". They would end their stage shows and television program with the immortal phrase "Say goodnight, Gracie." This phrase made its first appearance at the Roxy Theater in New York City, in 1932. After attempting to learn humor, with little success, Data accidentally paraphrased their hallmark and elicited laughter among the crew on the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "The Outrageous Okona" ) His career spanned vaudeville, film, radio and television, with and without his wife, Gracie Allen. His arched eyebrow and cigar smoke punctuation became familiar trademarks for over three quarters of a century. Enjoying a career resurrection that began at age 79, and ended shortly before his death at 100, Burns was as well known in the last two decades of his life as at any other time during his career. thumb|220px George Burns, (Nueva York, 20 de enero de 1896 — Beverly Hills, California, 9 de marzo de 1996), fue un cómico y actor estadounidense. Su amplia carrera incluye participaciones en teatro, cine, radio y televisión, incluyendo algunos con su esposa, Gracie Allen. Sus rasgos más característicos durante sus casi 75 años de carrera fueron sus cejas arqueadas y el puro con el que siempre aparecía en escena. Pero más destacable es su resurrección artística a una edad en la que la mayoría de las personas están retiradas o ya han fallecido. A partir de los 79 años, y hasta que falleció a los 100 años, George Burns conoció un nivel de fama que ya había perdido y que no conocía desde sus años en la radio.

n15:abstract
George Burns ist der kleine Bruder von Charles Montgomery Burns. Er stellt den real existierenden Komiker und Schauspieler George Burns als kind dar. Kategorie:Kleincharaktere Kategorie:Familie Burns Kategorie:Männlich Kategorie:Kinder George Burns, born Nathan Birnbaum, was a famous comedian and actor. Burns appeared in the episode, "Cancelled", as one of the forms Najix took to appear more familiar to the boys. He also appeared as a resident of Hell in "Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?" and "Hell on Earth 2006". Kenny McCormick sees George Burns as he falls into Hell in the film, South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. An honored comedian who became even more famous as the original Hollywood Cool Old Guy. Born in 1896, Burns played in Vaudeville and eventually started a double act with a young woman, Gracie Allen. However, Burns soon found that while she was his comic foil, she was getting more laughs with her comments than his best jokes. Being humble enough to bow to reality, Burns flipped the act and became the Straight Man and Grace Allen carried the heavy comedic lifting as the team Burns and Allen on stage, radio and television. The basic act was Gracie seemingly playing The Ditz while Burns regularly broke the Fourth Wall with side glances and comments to the audience. However, Allen's character was somewhat different in that she wasn't so much stupid, she just saw the world in such an idiosyncratic way that no one but George could function effectively around her. When TV shifted to color, Allen retired; her eyes had different colored irises, and she felt that it was too distracting/embarrassing to work in color. After Allen died in the 1960s, Burns worked on a lower level until 1974 when he got a de facto starring role in The Sunshine Boys as a old comedian coming out of retirement to work for a partner he can't stand and with whom the feeling is mutual. That role got him a Best Supporting Actor Oscar, which made him the oldest male winner in the Actor division (he was 80) until Christopher Plummer won at age 82. After that splash, Burns reshaped his image as a beloved old comedian who could hold the spotlight against any young rival with ease. He further buttressed his fame with his Oh, God! film series where his playing of God further played on his incredible longevity as a performer and sex symbol. Until his death a few months after hitting 100, Burns had a secure public image as a pop star who had been around literally forever. George Burns (1896-1996) was a vaudeville-trained comedian, actor and singer. His earliest fame came from co-starring with his wife, Gracie Allen, as the team of Burns and Allen. Burns played the straight man to his wife's dizzy antics and unique logic. Their partnership spanned stage work, films (including A Damsel in Distress with Fred Astaire), and the long-running Burns and Allen radio series, which began in 1932 and lasted until 1950. The show was then transferred to television (retitled The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show), and ran until 1958, when Gracie Allen retired. Following Allen's death in 1964, Burns made a comeback in 1975, replacing his late friend Jack Benny as Walter Matthau's aging vaudeville partner in The Sunshine Boys (1975). The role netted Burns the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. For the rest of his life, Burns enjoyed a popular image as a remarkably active old comedian who could easily hold his own against any younger rival. This was followed by Oh, God! (co-starring John Denver) and its sequels, amongst other roles. Burns died on March 9, 1996, nearly two months after reaching 100. His career spanned vaudeville, film, radio and television, with and without his wife, Gracie Allen. His arched eyebrow and cigar smoke punctuation became familiar trademarks for over three quarters of a century. Enjoying a career resurrection that began at age 79, and ended shortly before his death at 100, Burns was as well known in the last two decades of his life as at any other time during his career. There is no evidence that he did... there is also no evidence that he didnt! George Burns was a 20th century American comedian and television actor. He was married to Gracie Allen. They performed together as the comedy duo "Burns and Allen". They would end their stage shows and television program with the immortal phrase "Say goodnight, Gracie." This phrase made its first appearance at the Roxy Theater in New York City, in 1932. After attempting to learn humor, with little success, Data accidentally paraphrased their hallmark and elicited laughter among the crew on the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "The Outrageous Okona" ) Given the pairing of the two names, the humpback whale, George, in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home was (presumably) named by the staff at the Cetacean Institute for Burns. Actor and impressionist Frank Gorshin became well-known for playing George Burns on stage. thumb|220px George Burns, (Nueva York, 20 de enero de 1896 — Beverly Hills, California, 9 de marzo de 1996), fue un cómico y actor estadounidense. Su amplia carrera incluye participaciones en teatro, cine, radio y televisión, incluyendo algunos con su esposa, Gracie Allen. Sus rasgos más característicos durante sus casi 75 años de carrera fueron sus cejas arqueadas y el puro con el que siempre aparecía en escena. Pero más destacable es su resurrección artística a una edad en la que la mayoría de las personas están retiradas o ya han fallecido. A partir de los 79 años, y hasta que falleció a los 100 años, George Burns conoció un nivel de fama que ya había perdido y que no conocía desde sus años en la radio. George Burns was an American comedian, actor and writer. He appeared as himself on The Muppet Show in episode 210, as well as the TV documentaries Magic in the Magic Kingdom and The Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park Grand Opening. A cameo intended for Burns was written in the original script "George," Kermit's old friend in the swamp. For unknown reasons, this scene did not appear in the movie.
