Benny's show was really the originator of the "break down
the fourth wall" philosophy. Everyone that's done that
since owe's him a debt of gratitude. I remember reading that
once Don Wilson botched a sponsor's tag line at the end of
a broadcast, and was for some reason (vacation?) going to
miss the next broadcast. So the writers devised a story
thread for several weeks that Wilson was in hiding from the
ad agency fearing he'd get fired. On one episode he even
"phoned in" his opening.
