Summer replacement programs were a staple in the Golden Age of Radio. In order for stars of old-time radio to enjoy a vacation, a 1949 newspaper article observed, "When the warm weather rolls around, so do the 'Summer replacements.'"[1] In an era before recorded replays were available, bandleader Richard Himber commented: "The public would soon tire of its favorites if they failed to leave the air occasionally. Also, the stars benefit because they avoid staleness and return to radio with fresh material and a brighter outlook."[2] Use of summer replacement programs also helped the regular stars' reputations. "To avoid the stigma of playing to smaller audiences (and to allow time for their own summer vacations and extracurricular show-business activities), the major radio stars ... would leave the airwaves in June and return in September."[3]
Although exact durations varied, typically a summer replacement program was on for "that 13 week period when the stars of radio's winter season are on their vacations."[4]
A summer replacement program might have offered a group of well-known stars (Four Star Playhouse with Fred MacMurray, Loretta Young, Rosalind Russell and Robert Cummings.[5]). It might have offered a well-known regular on radio his or her only starring role in that medium (Bea Benaderet on Granby's Green Acres[6]). Or it might have simply filled a time slot until the regular program returned in the fall.
Listed below are some of the programs that were summer replacements on old-time radio, with related information.
