Summary edit

Description Photo of Bill Cullen and Charley the mynah from the radio program Roadshow. The program was a four hour Saturday offering on the NBC network, and was designed to appeal to those on the move. At this time, television was replacing radio in living rooms and dens; Roadshow was, in many respects, a "preview" of what radio evolved into after it was replaced by television as the main at home entertainment medium. Charley was trained to whistle the NBC Chimes of G-E-C, and was featured doing it as a network ID on the show.
