Life with Luigi was a radio comedy-drama series which began September 21,
1948 on CBS. The story concerned Italian immigrant Luigi Basco, and his
experiences as an immigrant in Chicago. Many of the shows take place at the
US citizenship classes that Luigi attends with other immigrants from
different countries, as well as trying to fend off the repeated advances of
the morbidly-obese daughter of his landlord/sponsor.
Luigi was played by J. Carrol Naish, an Irish-American. Naish continued
in the role on the short-lived television version in 1952 and was later
replaced by Vito Scotti. With a working title of The Little Immigrant, Life
with Luigi was created by Cy Howard, who earlier had created the hit radio
comedy, My Friend Irma. Other characters on the radio show included Pasquale
(Alan Reed), another Italian-American who was always trying to set Luigi up
with his daughter Rosa; and Shultz (Hans Conreid), a German immigrant and
fellow student in Luigi's citizenship class.
The show was sometimes regarded as the Italian counterpart to the radio
show The Goldbergs, which chronicled the experience of Jewish immigrants in
New York.
There are over 60 episodes
and better then 30 hours of wonderful old time hilarity contained on the CD.
