Today In Communication History
On this date in 1946. NBC’s ‘Hour Glass‘ premiered. It was the first hour long entertainment show. ‘Hour Glass‘ was sponsored by Standard Brands, promoting Chase and Sanborn coffee and Tenderleaf Tea. Doodles Weaver, Bert Lahr, Dennis Day, Anton Reiter, Jerry Colonna, Peggy Lee and Joe Besser appeared on the program. On November 14, 1946, Edgar Bergen brought his ventriloquism act to the show. It was one of the first times that a major radio performer had appeared on television. What led to its difficulties was “Standard Brands invested $200,000 in this series over its ten-month tenure at a time when that level of investment just couldn’t be supported and sustained, leading to the Hour Glass’s abbreviated run.” Another factor was that James Petrillo, president of the American Federation of Musicians forbade musicians from performing on television without an agreement between the AFM and the networks, thus limiting directors and performers to use of recorded music.
Quote Of The Day
‘Funny but fuzzy, well acted but poorly produced.’
Billboard critique of ‘Hour Glass’
