Reviewer: Dodsworth the Cat - - April 6, 2009
Subject: Some familiar voices
The Jan. 28, 1954 broadcast opens with the recognisable voice of announcer Johnny Jacobs, whose cry of "Here come the Newlyweds!" opened one of Chuck Barris' Productions most popular TV shows in the 60s and 70s.
The programme is sustaining, with Johnny plugging one of Arthur Godfrey's umpteen shows, and goes into great explanation about Stan Freberg's first CBS offering.
Alice Harris is played by Jean Vander Pyl, known to cartoon fans as Wilma Flintstone. Harry Henderson is Hugh Studebaker, who appeared as Silly Watson on Fibber McGee and Molly when it was based in Chicago. Loosetooth is Roy Glenn, who appeared several times as Roy, Rochester's friend, on the Jack Benny radio show.
Writers Arthur Julian and Hal Kanter went into television; Julian worked on a number of Hogan's Heroes.
The RadioGoldIndex says Elvia Allman is on this show, but she doesn't appear in the credits and can't be heard in the broadcast.
The writing isn't strong, but the characters work well together.
