Jack Benny | Red Skelton
Red Skelton as the character Clem Kadiddlehopper, delivering a telegram to Jack Benny on the Jack Benny Show.

Jack Benny was so funny! There's no one like him now. He was born Benjamin Kubelsky and was a star of vaudeville, movies, radio, and television. Johnny Carson used to imitate Jack Benny often on The Tonight Show when reacting to something someone else said.
