Production
The series was produced by Robert Brenner Productions, with Brenner as the producer, Tom DeHuff was the director, and Milton Subotsky was the writer. After initially originating from an independent station with ABC production personnel in charge, it began originating from WJZ-TV after that station went on the air. Reception 
A review of the September 6, 1948, episode in the trade publication Billboard found that the program had potential but, "there's too much gab and too little action". Reviewer Jerry Franken suggested that the show would be better suited to a 15-minute slot. Episode status
