The Chevrolet Tele-Theatre is an American anthology series that aired live on NBC Mondays at 8 pm EST from September 27, 1948 to June 26, 1950.
[1] The program presented both news headlines and live dramatic performances of either original plays or works adapted for television from the stage.
That change allowed it to be shown live in the Midwest, via use of coaxial cable, rather than just in the East as had been the case in its previous time slot (30 minutes earlier on Mondays).
[6] A review of the January 31, 1949, broadcast in the trade publication Variety called the episode "a neat comedy playlet" that featured "sharp lines snappily rendered by two vet thespers".
However, these aging 69+ year old kinescope film prints have yet to be transferred to modern media to ensure the survival of the episodes.
