What was the opening line for the old-time radio program 'The Green Door'?

Answer 1

I think it might have been this old song by Jim Lowe: "Midnight, one more night without sleepin' Watchin' till the mornin' comes creepin' Green door, what's that secret you're keepin? There's an old piano And they play it hot behind the green door..."

Answer 2

There was only one sponsor for the program, initially and for 17 years it was S.C. Johnson Co. followed by a couple of years each with Pet Milk and Reynolds Aluminum.

The opening, voiced by Harley Wilcox, began with a one-sentence open, variously "The Johnson Wax Program" or "The Johnson Wax Program with Fibber McGee and Molly" followed by rchestral theme followed by a straight pitch for Johnson products and then introductory material that varied by season, identifying the orchestra and vocalists and, some information about the cast and the writer. The announcer would then begin a few scene setting sentences finishing with "and there we find Fibber McGee and Molly" or "with Fibber McGee and Molly" or such so that the last words were "Fibber McGee and Molly." There was usually an additional spot during the program in which Wilcox would wander by and turn the conversation to Johnson's Wax products, much to the consternation of Fibber who would make fun of Wilcox, calling him " Waxy" (Molly always called him Mister Wilcox) but Fibber always stayed true to the show's policy of "kid the pitch, not the product." Wilcox would do another straight pitch at the end of the show for Johnson's Wax, Johnson's Self-Polishing Glo-Coat or Johnson's Car-Nu. That would be followed by brief closing remarks by Marian and Jim Jordan, if any, always in character, and then Fibber saying good night and Molly saying "good night all," then Wilcox, depending on time, might identify himself or pitc;h another show but always end with "This is the National Broadcasting Company," followed by the NBC chime. There was a favorite saying the Fibber McGee said, "Coming out of the closet." It was a standing joke between his wife and him on the program. McGee or Molly would open up the closet and everything would come tumbling out and he'd say, "Gotta fix that one day" (similar to Pa, in "Ma & Pa Kettle." The program was basically one-liner gags between the McGee's and their friends (and were a product of a dysfunctional family). The music played on the program was: "Save You Sorrows For Tomorrow", "Wing to Wing" & "We're Gonna Ride, Ride, Ride.
