The series was a talk show ran from 1949 to 1951 hosted by Charles Tranum. The program, produced and distributed by DuMont, aired Monday through Friday at 7:30pm or 7:45pm ET on most DuMont affiliates.[1]
From December 1949 to June 1950, Easy Aces aired in the Wednesday 7:45pm slot. During the 1950-1951 season, the Hazel Scott, Joan Edwards, and Susan Raye shows all ran in the 7:45pm ET slot immediately after Manhattan Spotlight.
The series was cancelled in 1951, and DuMont replaced the series with local (non-network) programming.
