The Alcoa Hour TV Show Cast Members


Vic Damone, Patrice Munsel, and Basil Rathbone
in episode #31, "The Stingiest Man in Town"


Series Description:

The Alcoa Hour was an anthology drama series with a few musicals thrown in for good measure.

Trivia:

The Alcoa Hour, as with many series of its day, was named for its principle sponsor, "Alcoa (Aluminum Company of America)".

For the first eight episodes, the Alcoa Hour aired every other week with "The Goodyear Theatre" and "The Philco Television Playhouse" sharing the other weeks. For the rest of the series, the Alcoa Hour shared the timeslot solely with the Goodyear Theatre.

Some of the Alcoa Hour dramas were original scripts but most of them were adapted from successful novels or plays.

All of the Alcoa Hour episodes were performed live!
