Writing team Sam Moore and John Whedon left The Great Gildersleeve in 1947. Although a string of writers came behind them, the core of the show, the true heart of the program didn’t shift. Gildersleeve and his family and friends were so fully realized by this point that writers simply had to keep the stories fresh and new in content; the characters were almost alive enough to do that on their own. Even when a new actor took over the lead role, The Great Gildersleeve didn’t skip a beat for several years, continuing to turn out stories fans enjoyed and came back each week to hear. Tune in to the twelve original broadcasts of The Great Gildersleeve, Volume 16 as they originally aired, to find out just what sort of love and trouble Gildy gets into. Presented as they originally aired, complete with Kraft Foods commercials and restored to sparkling digital quality.
