"Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts" had made its
television debut two weeks earlier; it had been
on radio since 1946. It would be the number-one
primetime show in the 1951-52 season, at which
point both it and "Arthur Godfrey And His Friends"
would be in the top three. Both shows' ratings
would slip after the Julius LaRosa incident in 1953,
but "Talent Scouts" would last until 1958, with several
revival attempts in the '60s, hosted by the likes of
Jim Backus, Merv Griffin, and Art Linkletter.
