From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

At Home is an early American television series which aired on New York City television station WCBW (now WCBS-TV) from 1944 to 1945. The series was a variety show, one of the first such series produced for American television. Very little is known about this series (such as the running time).

Format

The series presented variety acts. One episode, for example, featured comedian Bernie West, dancer Ronnie Cunningham, singer Vera Pandowsky, guitarist Youl Bryner, and was hosted by Paquita Anderson.[1] A different episode featured dancer Sandra Barrett and juggler Senor Francisco.[2]

Episode status

Methods to record live television did not exist until late 1947. As such, the series is most likely lost except possibly for still photographs.[citation needed]
