	The General Mills Radio Adventure Theater - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The General Mills Radio Adventure Theater was a anthology radio drama series from the 1970s.
		Himan Brown, already producing the CBS Radio Mystery Theater for the network, added this twice-weekly (usually aired on weekends on stations which cleared it) anthology radio drama series to his workload in 1977.
		General Mills's advertising agency was looking for a means of reaching children that would be less expensive than television advertising; Brown and CBS were willing to experiment with a series aimed at younger listeners, the only nationwide attempt in the U.S. in the 1970s (outside, perhaps, of Christian or other religious broadcasting).

		For years after radio died, oldtime producer-director Himan Brown had been sounding a forlorn-lament: that the medium did not deserve such a fate, that radio drama could still be viable and hold its own with the video monster that had killed it.
		Radio as a dramatic medium had been absent from the scene long enough to again be a novelty, and the show was covered by journals from the New Yorker to Newsweek.
		On the CBS web page is a link the Radio Mystery Theater to which you can still listen to episodes from the show as well as interviews and such.

		Radio Mystery Theater and a collector of the show since the early 80's.
		I often turned the radio way down or used my earphones to sneak a listen without disturbing my parents who's bedroom was on the other side of the wall from my room.
		It was very exciting to hear the creaking door of the Mystery Theater each night along with the scary music playing and the downright spooky voice of E. Marshall narrating the show.

	Boston.com / News / Boston Globe / Obituaries / Jackson Beck, 92; his voice became staple of radio shows
		In the very particular art of the radio and television voice-over, Jackson Beck, who died Wednesday at 92 after several years of declining health, was considered one of the masters.
		It was the golden age of that medium, and in 1931, Mr.
		Beck appeared as a voice in two Woody Allen movies, ''Radio Days," a tribute to the golden era of radio, and ''Take the Money and Run." He worked until the mid-1990s, which was essentially until he couldn't work anymore.

		CBS initially ordered a premiere range of 195 original programs that were to be fed to its affiliate stations across the United States.

	Introduction to CBS Radio Mystery Theater
		For those old-time radio fans it was the sound of the c-r-e-a-k-i-n-g door.
		These were true masters of mystery and suspense - with scripts and story lines so very remniniscent of the good old days of radio.
		What the Mystery Theater did do was to foster three other series: The Sears Radio Theater, later the Mutual Radio Theater; and The General Mills Radio Adventure Theater.

		Although this series was broadcast at the same time as the television counterpart, I suspect that the radio scripts were adaptations of the television scripts, so if one was to browse through the old TV Guides one might find the same plots with titles and fill in the blanks.

		Though I have always been a true child of television, radio was always a factor in my early years -- primarily KDKA in Pittsburgh.
		In the early 70's, in addition to "The Shadow," NBC broadcast Sunday repeats of "X Minus One" in the summer and beginning in 1974 stations affiliated with CBS Radio devoted one hour each night to "Mystery Theater".
		However, for contemporary radio drama and comedy, the BBC cannot be beat.

		When the deed is done, the man's unbalanced obsession switches from the eye to the old man's heart, which he can still hear beating...not really enough to fill out an hour long (with commercials) three-act radio play.
		Adaptor George Lother must again flesh out the characters backgrounds, their motivations, and create a dramatic structure that builds realistically to the story's famous ending.
		This is a difficult episode for me to listen to and enjoy, because Charlie's suffering is communicated so effectively, but that doesn't stop it from being one of the best (if not the best) of CBSRMT's second season Poe story cycle.
