 from October 4th, 1950. That previous summer, Harold Perry left NBC and his long-running hit series, The Great Gildersleeve, indeed moving to CBS. Unfortunately, he was unable to replicate the success, and the Harold Perry Show, a.k.a. Honest Harold, wrapped up after a single season. During the wrap-up of that episode, announcer Bob Lamond mentioned Dick Powell. He was talking about the radio writer, not Dick Powell the actor. Two different fellas.
