Jim and Marian Jordan played the title roles in "Fibber McGee and Molly" in which
there was also a character called "Little Girl." She was voiced by Marian who always
left the room, if you'll notice, before Little Girl took the mic, Mike. Guildersleeve
was a character on the show and went on to have a spin-off.

Fanny Brice played Baby Snooks on a separate program called "Baby Snooks and Daddy."
