[2] With a new format, The Opera Guild, hosted by Deems Taylor, began December 2, 1934, Sundays at 8 p.m., on The Chase and Sanborn Hour, and that concert series continued until March 17, 1935.

[2] Major Bowes' Original Amateur Hour had the slot from March 24, 1935, until September 11, 1936, followed by Do You Want to Be an Actor?, with Haven MacQuarrie, broadcast from January 3, 1937, until May 2, 1937, a series that continued Sundays at 10:30 p.m. as a half-hour show from December 5, 1937, until February 20, 1938.

[1] Meanwhile, Chase and Sanborn found a gold mine with a wooden dummy when Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy began an 11-year run, starting May 9, 1937.

[4] Beginning on January 7, 1940, the regular cast, apart from Bergen and McCarthy, were dropped and the show was cut to a half-hour and retitled The Chase and Sanborn Program.

The remaining Bergen/McCarthy programs eschewed guest stars in favor of regular sketches featuring Don Ameche and Marsha Hunt as The Bickersons.
