TV Game Shows of the 50s

Jukebox juryJukebox Jury

This early panel show began on television in 1948 after a long radio run and starred Hollywood DJ Peter Potter.

Jukebox juryOriginally broadcast for TV on Los Angeles local KNXT, the show went national in 1953 on the ABC network, but lasted only a single network season. No wonder - it was little more than a radio show brought to life, with wall-to-wall commercial endorsements and movie plugs (that are still common on radio).

Jukebox juryOn 'Jukebox Jury', six young, glamorous late-Forties' B-movie stars and minor recording artists were on-hand to judge the latest record company releases. Celebrities like Barry Sullivan, Maureen O'Sullivan, Phyllis Winger, and Jane Powell form a six pack of stars who line up on either side of the host. Their job: to sit still and look cool while the three-minute single played and the TV camera probed them - then offer an opinion of the record.

Occasionally, it got interesting when the stars ripped catty remarks off on each other in that oh-so-polite way people used to have fifty years ago. 'Jukebox Jury' came off like an subdued version of the Seventies daytime hit Match Game.

Look for a young Mike ('Mannix') Connors (then known in the business as "Touch" Connors) in this clip from the KTLA version of the show, circa 1948.
