The Admiral Broadway Revue

The Admiral Broadway Revue

"The Admiral Broadway Revue" was a U.S. TV series which premiered on 28 January 1949, and was broadcast simultaneously on both NBC and DuMont. The hour-long variety series was directed by Max Liebman, hosted by Sid Caesar, and also starred Imogene Coca. Liebman, Caesar, and Coca all worked later on "Your Show of Shows", a new program on NBC.

The series, oddly enough, was sponsored by TV set manufacturer Admiral, a company which was in direct competition with RCA (the parent company of NBC) and DuMont, which both manufactured TV sets.
