About this listen

 My Favorite Husband was broadcast on KFI radio in Hollywood, California, on July 8, 1947, as an episode of the Premiere Performance series, which provided opportunities for program packagers to air pilots of potential series. John Beal portrayed George Cugat, and Nancy Kelly played his wife. A review in the trade publication Billboard found the broadcast to be "nothing more than a tired rehash of the now-familiar pattern set by Claudia and David stage and movie series".[1]Its first network broadcast was a one-time special on CBS Radio on July 5, 1948.

CBS's new series Our Miss Brooks had been delayed coming to the air, so to fill in the gap that week CBS aired the audition program (the radio equivalent of a television pilot) for My Favorite Husband.Lucille Ball and Lee Bowman played the characters of Liz and George Cugat, and a positive response to this broadcast convinced CBS to launch My Favorite Husband as a series. Bowman was not available to do the series, so when it debuted later that month it starred Lucille Ball and Richard Denning as the leads.[3] The couple lived at 321 Bundy Drive in the fictitious city of Sheridan Falls, and were billed as "two people who live together and like it."Copyright 30 Classic TV Shows on Radio!
