The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet

These old Ozzie and Harriet shows are great- good clean entertainment. I had to tell my wife I could not watch Desperate Housewives with her on the TV...too much garbage. As a five year old I remember my mom listening to The Easy Aces (looking forward to your CD). I think they came on daily around 7pm on network from NYC. (look up Goodman Ace). We had the radio on during the afternoon and evening. I was a big fan of the Lone Ranger, and the voice of it’s narrator FRED FOY motivated me to want to be an announcer. I was always intrigued by the development of the Lone Ranger Character on those shows including his relationship with an Indian! There is one for breaking stereotypes. In later years I happened to need a trust lawyer when in Honolulu and I was referred by my bank to GEORGE W TRENDLE, JR. Who told me many stories about the creation and broadcasts of his fathers great creation with writer Fran Stryker. By the way you may be amused to learn that Trendle recycled his Lone Ranger scripts for his other series. SGT PRESTON of the Yukon and The GREEN HORNET. I also remember MIKE WALLACE (CBS newsman) was the announcer for SKY KING sponsored by Peter Pan Peanut butter. Mom tuned into the dramas: LUX RADIO THEATER, SUSPENSE and INNER SANCTUM (I hated the intro…too scary). The BELL TELEPHONE HOUR, Donald Vorhees conducting. NBC Symphony ….The MET OPERA with Norman Cross host. Mom did not listen to the comedy shows but I had an old radio near my bedside and would tune into Baby Snooks, Henry Aldrich, Ozzie and Harriet, Our Miss Brooks (on radio before TV) Bing Crosby was on radio frequently. I was not prohibited from listening to any show…but I had to have lights out by 9PM (but I kept the radio on quietly falling asleep to many a nights dramas. I always like the soothing voice of JOEL McCREA on 'Tales of The Texas Rangers'…great narratives. Gene Autry from Melody Ranch. The first 15 minutes was a drama and the last musical variety. I was not encouraged to listen to any shows but just enjoyed what was on and if I did not care to listen would go to my own diversions. As a teen ager I had a phono oscillator radio transmiter and would play my own programming from my bedroom to the kitchen radio…(I was on the air from 3:15 PM to 6PM and even played dinner music for us).

Just had to add my kudos to your great website.... I just received my orders a week or so ago, and have been thoroly enjoying every nuance of each CD... even the "bell tones" twixt the radio shows really bring back the wonderful memories, Soooo.... Many warm thanks for bring the past back to me, to savor once again....

Ozzie and Harriet are really enjoyable to listen too.

Very good show ! “Ozzie & Harriet” also had radio runs as well as many other shows. Only “Have Gun, will travel” went from television to radio

I'm in my late 30's and had not previously heard about the Harriett and Ozzie Radio show. I first came across the show when I once heard it on an online old time radio station which was broadcasting classic Christmas shows. In less than a minute I was already hooked. At the end of the broadcast I looked up the show on wikipedia and read all about it. I started to search the web to try to find more of their episodes. Finally, I came across OTRCAT.com where I purchased the whole series of Ozzie and Harriet, and thoroughly enjoyed listening to all their shows. I even managed to locate a old 1940's valve radiogram still in original working condition, and connected my MP3 player to its turntable input, so that I could listen to the Ozzie and Harriett radio show with the authentic sound and feel of the bygone days of radio entertainment. There is nothing on television today that still contains the innocence, family humour, morals and lessons taught in this show. I'm so happy I have discovered this little gem.

Great fun to listen to The Adventures Of Ozzie and Harriet! Especially when David and Ricky started apperaing on the show. The quality is really quite good. Very pleased with this purchase.

I like the humor of Ozzie and Harriet. It is low key and natural. I always wondered, exactly what is Ozzie's employment on the show? The humor doesn't as much as some comedy shows.

like this show like the humer directed toward ozzie.

I love Ozzie and Harriet. This is a great collection, and you can't beat the cost. I highly recommend this. Nice company to work with.

I love the low key humor of the Ozzie and Harriet radio program. This is a great collection of shows. So far my favorite episodes are the Easter show, where the family decide to go to the early morning Son Rise service and the Valentine show when Ozzie decides not buy a box of candy for Harriet, but rather to buy her something more original. The exchange at the department store is hilarious. I also enjoy the silver plate commercials. My Mother had a set of Roger Brothers and was always proud to set a beautiful table for special occasions and holidays. The advertisements bring back those lovely childhood memories.

These shows are a lot of fun to listen to! I was a kid when the Adventures of Ozzie and Harriette was on TV. Some of the later radio shows parallel TV episodes. I really enjoy these shows!

Every time I listen to Ozzie and Harriet I am reminded of how I felt when I first heard the programs on radio. I was the same age as Ricky Nelson and could easily relate to his shenanigans.

If you like the Ozzie & Harriet television show you will love the radio just just as much.

The Ozzie and Harriet recordings arrived yesterday. Thanks again for super service. I'm looking forward to listening to them and again, thanks for letting me know about their availability. Have a great day.

As the other collections I have purchased, Ozzie and Harriet takes me back to younger time. Thank you for your efforts. Have recommended you to many of my friends.
