How this season is filed

Filed by Lana Reyes · Red Carpet Reality

Kraft Television Theatre is live drama with a cheese sponsor: hundreds of teleplays, young stars cutting teeth between product acts, prestige as a grocery brand. Watch it now as a Golden Age cornerstone — industrial-scale living-room theater, incomplete kinescope survival, and proof early TV thought of itself as Broadway first.
