And "Mike" Nevins notes on Mystery*File today that Richard Coogan, who played Captain Video, and Ellery Queen on the Boucher/Lee radio series, died in March at age 99. A very tenuous thread, but worth the note.Todd Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815516018079824802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2728909293998777391.post-50455123285501049402014-05-06T20:25:03.397-07:002014-05-06T20:25:03.397-07:00DuMont was indeed on (and owned) Channels 5 in NYC...DuMont was indeed on (and owned) Channels 5 in NYC and DC, which were the core of the network from 1949-54.

Except that I watched it growing up on channel five. I think Dupont was five. I am a big fan of Roscoe Karns in just about anything he ever did. He was born to play either a detective, a cop or a reporter. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2728909293998777391.post-30073825424768947482014-05-06T07:56:07.226-07:002014-05-06T07:56:07.226-07:00Being the second-most popular series on the DuMont...Being the second-most popular series on the DuMont Network isn't the best means for pop-culture currency sixty years later.
