Debuting on June 24th, 1941, A Date With Judy was the teenage girl's answer to Archie Andrews and The Aldrich Family. Billed as the adventures of the “lovable teenage girl who's close to all our hearts,” it initially starred Ann Gillis in a summer replacement for Bob Hope. While filming at Paramount, Hope met Gillis and introduced her to his radio sponsors. They cast her in the adolescent comedy being prepared by writer Aleen Leslie. Leslie had come up through the Hollywood ranks working for Columbia Pictures, and writing for Deanna Durbin, Mickey Rooney, and Henry Aldrich films. Leslie wrote the lead with her friend Helen Mack in mind, but Mack was pregnant and declined. After the birth of her child. Mack came in as producer-director, the only woman to do so in a prime-time role at the time. In three summertime runs, two for Hope and one for Eddie Cantor, Judy was played by Gillis, Joan Lorring, and finally Louise Erickson. Erickson also played Marjorie on The Great Gildersleeve. In January of 1944, Judy was given a full-time run and Erickson held the role for the next six years. In July of 1944 the show was pulling a rating of 9.1 on NBC. On Independence Day at 8:30PM, an overheard election mixup causes comedic embarrassment for Judy's father.

Starting with "Bright Star," we explore "The Oil Swindle," where Susan Armstrong, played by Irene Dunne, and George Harvey, voiced by Fred MacMurray, get entangled in a local scandal involving fraudulent oil stocks. The duo uses their journalistic skills to expose the culprits and save the town's investments. Next, we tune into "Our Miss Brooks," featuring the charming Eve Arden as Connie Brooks in "Peanuts, the Great Dane."

Moving on, "Love Story" presents "Tiny Pink Elephant," where Helen Mack portrays a young woman who purchases a miniature elephant under the influence of a whimsical impulse, leading to unexpected adventures and a light-hearted look at romance and dreams. Lastly, we enjoy a classic from "The Jack Benny Show," titled “Jack's Sponsor Buys Insurance On Him." Jack Benny, along with his regular cast members Mary Livingstone, Phil Harris, Rochester, and Dennis Day, brings humor to the predicament of his sponsor taking out an insurance policy on him, sparking a string of hilarious misunderstandings and antics.

The show began as a summer replacement for Bob Hope's show, sponsored by Pepsodent and airing on NBC from June 24 to September 16, 1941, with 14-year-old Ann Gillis in the title role.

The Beulah Show is an American situation-comedy series that ran in radio on CBS from 1945 to 1954, and in television on ABC from 1950 to 1953. It is notable for being the first sitcom to star an African American. Originally portrayed by Caucasian actor Marlin Hurt, Beulah Brown first appeared in 1939 when Hurt introduced and played the character on the Hometown Incorporated radio series and in 1940 on NBC radio's Show Boat series. In 1943, Beulah moved over to That's Life and then became a supporting character on the popular Fibber McGee and Molly radio series in late 1944. In 1945, Beulah was spun off into her own radio show, The Marlin Hurt and Beulah Show, with Hurt still in the role. Beulah was employed as a housekeeper and cook for the Henderson family: father Harry, mother Alice and son Donnie. After Hurt died of a heart attack in 1946, he was replaced by another white actor, Bob Corley, and the series was retitled The Beulah Show. When black actress Hattie McDaniel took over the role on November 24, 1947, she earned $1000 a week for the first season, doubled the ratings of the original series and pleased the NAACP which was elated to see a historic first: a black woman as the star of a network radio program. McDaniel continued in the role until she became ill in 1952 and was replaced by Lillian Randolph, who was in turn replaced for the 1953-54 radio season by her sister, Amanda Randolph.
