I wonder what the Junior High School Quiz was about. Perhaps a learning show with a quiz at the end?

I wonder what the Junior High School Quiz was about. Perhaps a learning show with a quiz at the end? I presume it was a quiz involving junior high students (there would be several quizzes involving young contestants during the 1950s-1960s, and believe there were radio examples as well).

They were probably also trying to see what would get more viewing. You got to think, in the 1940s they had no idea who would want to watch TV, kids, teens, young adults, adults, elderly... and if it would be a generation thing, or all ages would be interested. They were probably testing the waters. Or, maybe like you said, they weren't as concerned about the ratings so they offered a little something for everyone. This was a really cool read.

Admittedly, early TV drew ideas from radio and film, but these formats had to be re-worked to suit TV. Some popular radio formats didn't work on TV: Walter Winchell's popular radio show, in which he read out the news at quick speed, was a dismal failure on TV, and after seeing it, I'm not surprised; it may have seemed cool on radio, but on TV it same across as silly. On the other hand, some shows could be made more interesting with TV: on radio, "Your Hit Parade" simply featured singers singing the hit songs of the week, while on TV the songs were presented in a more visual way, often with the singer acting out the song in costume. I was reading some reviews of 1944-1945 TV in Billboard magazine from that period, and it's amazing how many failed experiments there were. Yet, as Billboard pointed out in one review, these experiments helped get TV ready for when mass-production of TV sets would begin.

Philip Harben makes a basic salad dressing") 3:30PM - Film: Designing Women (1948 short.

Saturday 24 July 1948 11:00PM - Newsreel ("Composite edition", which I assume means news stories from previous in the week) 3:00PM - "In Our Garden" ("Members of the League of Health and Beauty give a display of physical fitness exercises. F. Streeter shows how to take cuttings for next year.

Apart from the films (which obviously weren't produced for TV), the only possible surviving material from this week of telecasts might be some news stories from the "BBC Television Newsreel". Few complete editions survive but various news stories from the series survive. Here's an example of a news story from 1951, showing the introduction of a new train:

TV schedule for Wednesday 8 December 1948 in New York City. There's some special aspects to this schedule: 1. It includes a sitcom ("The Growing Paynes"), and sitcoms were VERY rare on late-1940s TV 2. It includes Goodson-Todman's first ever TV game show, "Winner Take All", thus paving the way for all the great Goodson-Todman shows of the 1950s to 1980s 3. It includes daytime TV! Yes, courtesy of DuMont Television Network's station WABD, comes the world's first full daytime schedule 4. It includes minority representation! Yes, "Amanda", starring African-American singer Amanda Randolph, also courtesy of DuMont So, this schedule is indeed rather special.

Thursday 28 April 1949 TV schedule for Cincinnati, Ohio. Problem: Four networks, but the city only had 2 stations. So the schedule ia mix of shows. WLWT has some of NBC's schedule with a DuMont show thrown in plus various local and syndicated shows, WKRC-TV has some of CBS's schedule plus a terrible film. Unless I'm mistaken ABC is absent from the schedule, but that's OK, ABC was worse than DuMont at that point. There's some good shows on the schedule, including "Kukla, Fran and Ollie", "The Morey Amsterdam Show" and "Make Mine Music". WLWT, Channel 4 3:45PM - Bob and Mary Lou 4:00PM - Curtain Time 4:15PM - Kitchen Club 5:00PM - Junior Jamboree 6:00PM - News 6:05PM - Swanee River Boys 6:15PM - Let's Visit 6:45PM - Ernie Lee Sings 7:00PM - Kukla, Fran and Ollie7:30PM - Ohio Town 7:50PM - News 8:00PM - Your Show Time8:30PM - Sportsman's Show 8:45PM - Findley Brooke 8:54PM - Improve Your Golf 9:00PM - The Gulf Road Show9:30PM - Floor Show10:00PM - The Morey Amsterdam Show10:30PM - Weather, sign-off WKRC-TV, Channel 11 4:30PM- Skating Vanities Tryouts 5:30PM - Ambush Valley 6:00PM - Lucky Pup6:15PM - Photo Flashes 6:30PM - Make Mine Music6:45PM - Kartoon Korner 7:00PM - Telenews 7:15PM - Varieties 7:30PM - Supper Club8:00PM - Film: A Yank in Libya (a edited-for-TV print, but that's OK, the film sucked to begin with) 9:00PM - What's It Worth9:30PM - Sign off

Sunday 16 October 1949 TV schedule for London, England. Only one station (BBC) at the time. But you only need one station when a well-received classic film short like "Night Mail" is on the schedule (also, I suspect that since it was a 25-minute film and was presumably shown complete, the schedule probably did get a little off track with "Off to the Circus" shown slightly later than scheduled) 4:00PM - Muffin the Mule4:20PM - Film: Night Mail (1936) 4:40PM - Off to the Circus ?:?? - dead air 8:30PM - TV Play: The Director10:40PM - News (sound only)

Two UK schedules, from Tuesday 7 October 1947, and Thursday 9 October 1947. I chose these two schedules because the earliest surviving kinescope of a BBC show comes from one of these two dates. A 6-minute fragment of "Variety in Sepia" exists, but which day's performance it comes from is not known (it common at the time for shows to be performed twice on the BBC on different days). I've seen the fragment, and guess what? It's entertaining. Black singer Adelaide Hall sings two songs, and comes across very well. This, to me, proves that 1940s UK TV could be quite good. It's a shame that hardly any other kinescopes exist of 1940s BBC TV. Tuesday 7 October 1947: 12:00PM - Demonstration film 3:00PM - Fashions Around the World 3:30PM - Come and Be Televised 6:00PM - Demonstration film 8:30PM - Variety in Sepia9:30PM - The Eye of the Artist 10:00PM - News (sound only) Thursday 9 October 1947: 12:00PM - Demonstration film 3:00PM - Variety in Sepia6:00PM - Demonstration film 8:30PM - Cafe Continental9:30PM - Six Gentlemen in a Row10:00PM - News (sound only)

Monday, 10 November 1947 TV schedule for New York City. Although New York City had three stations at the time, only WABD (Channel 5) was on the air that day. Nothing from the schedule survives as far as I know, with the possible exception of the "film shorts" at 6:35PM, 8:00PM and 8:30PM. Some shows, however, have surviving episodes from later dates. 3:00PM - Test pattern 6:30PM - Test pattern 6:35PM - Film shorts 6:45PM - The Walter Compton News (this series is completely lost) 7:00PM - Small Fry Club (I believe a fragment survives from this series) 7:30PM - Doorway to Fame (two episodes of this series survive at the UCLA Film and Television Archive) 8:00PM - Film shorts 8:15PM - Magic Carpet 8:30PM - Film shorts 8:35PM - Swing Into Sports (an episode of this series, from 1948, survives at the Paley Center for Media) 9:00PM - Sports Names to Remember (this series is completely lost) 9:07PM - Boxing Bouts (some WABD-produced boxing matches survive in various archive)

Washington D.C. television schedule for Friday 19 December 1947. I believe this is the first time I've posted a Washington D.C. schedule! The city had three stations: WTTG was a DuMont station (and is now a FOX station), WNBW was and still is NBC, and WMAL was originally CBS but is now ABC. The latter two stations have since changed their call sign. One of the series on the schedule was Elder Michaux, a religious show with an African-American host. It was briefly a network series, but had a longer run as a local show. Sadly, no footage remains of the show. WNBW, Channel 4 12:45PM - Coming Attractions 1:00PM - Home Service Club 1:30PM - Television Newsreel 1:45PM - Musical Interlude 3:30PM - A Day at the Zoo 4:30PM - Film Features 5:30PM - Musical Interlude 7:00PM - Christmas Land 8:00PM - Campus Hoopla8:15PM - The World In Your Home8:25PM - Story of the Week 8:45PM - Let's Learn to Dance 9:00PM - News in Review 9:05PM - Boxing 10:00PM - Secretary of State Marshall 10:15PM - Boxing 10:45PM - Telesports WTTG, Channel 5 6:15PM - Dinner Music 6:30PM - Preview Time 6:35PM - Film shorts 6:45PM - The Walter Compton News 7:00PM - Small Fry Club7:30PM - Elder Michaux8:00PM - Film Featurette 8:30PM - Hockey 10:00PM - Secretary of State Marshall 10:15PM - Hockey 11:00PM - Press Bulletins WMAL, Channel 7 10:00AM - Test pattern 12:00PM - station close 1:00PM - Test patern 5:00PM - station close 5:30PM - Test pattern 10:00PM - Secretary of State Marshall

St. Louis, Missouri television schedule for Friday 28 January 1949. They only had a single station, but the station had a good schedule: "Admiral Broadway Revue" was a good though short-lived show, "Kukla, Fran and Ollie" was also good, and "Chesterfield Supper Club" was a good show too. Certainly, most viewers would have been happy with this schedule. I also appreciate that the station had local programming on its schedules during this period. KSD-TV, Channel 5 4:30PM - Howdy Doody5:00PM - Test pattern and music 5:50PM - Associated Press News and Views 6:00PM - Kukla, Fran and Ollie6:30PM - Uncle Russ and Family 6:50PM - Fox Movietone Newsreel 7:00PM - Admiral Broadway Revue8:00PM - Hot Stove League 8:30PM - Your Show Time9:00PM - Boxing in Madison Square Garden 10:00PM - Chesterfield Supper Club

UK television schedule for Sunday 15 May 1949. Only one channel, the BBC, at the time. Very little survives of 1949 BBC TV, however, one program on this schedule, "The Blockade Ends", does survive! Actually, it sounds very interesting, being a documentary about the end of the Berlin blockade, broadcast within days of it ending. ....and here is the schedule: 5:00PM - For the Children (including segments "Express Train", "The Squirrel, the Hare, and the Little Grey Rabbit", " Muffin the Mule") sign-off 8:00PM - The Blockade Ends8:30PM - TV Play: A Pair Of Spectacles10:00PM - News (sound only)
