To Be Perfectly Frank
After I Say I'm Sorry
por
To Be Perfectly Frank is a radio comedy built around Frank Morgan, the genial actor whose on-air persona turns everyday situations into opportunities for comic confusion. Morgan’s warm, self-deprecating delivery gives the program its center, while the humor plays on his attempts to manage the people and circumstances around him.
The show uses the variety-comedy style of its era, combining a central comic situation with dialogue and supporting performances. Its stories draw on familiar social and domestic predicaments, letting misunderstandings and Frank’s own good-natured shortcomings drive the laughs.
The result is light, conversational comedy rather than sharp satire: a showcase for Morgan’s personality and timing, with the easygoing feel of a performer sharing a comic predicament with his audience.
