Kraft Foods Inc. - 100 Years: Marketing Kraft Television Theatre was also the first commercial network program on television. Kraft revolutionized the production of cheese when he discovered that if he heated and continuously stirred cheese, then placed it in a sterile container, when the cheese cooled, it would regain its solid state. To differentiate Kraft cheese spreads from the competition in the early 1930s, Kraft sold its spreads in brightly decorated five-ounce glass jars called Swankyswigs that could be reused as drinking glasses. www.kraft.com /100/innovations/tv.html   (665 words)

Kraft Foods Inc. - 100 Years: Marketing Kraft was the first advertiser to sponsor a two-hour radio program. For the advertising managers at Kraft, it was imperative that advertising and entertainment be kept separate. Additionally, Kraft commercials were single-product focused during the radio days, short and to the point in order to keep with Kraft's philosophy that quality entertainment led listeners up to the commercials, dropped them into the commercials, and took them back to the show. www.kraft.com /100/innovations/music.html   (757 words)

UCLA Film & Television Archive - Collections It was with the Kraft Music Hall that Crosby and his creative staff developed a successful show format that Crosby would continue to use throughout his career on radio. Balancing guest interviews, musical performances and segments featuring interaction with a house band, the program style popularized by Crosby can now be seen on almost all of the major television networks late-night talk show circuits, a testament to its success with both network business economies and audiences. Crosby would stay with NBC on the Kraft Music Hall until 1946, when a dispute with network managers and the program's sponsor, Kraft, prompted him to leave the network and partner with ABC to produce the pre-recorded Philco Radio Time, a variety show featuring guest interviews, under the banner of The Bing Crosby Show. www.cinema.ucla.edu /collections/Profiles/radio/bingcrosby.html   (363 words)

Milton Berle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia He later appeared in the Kraft Music Hall series, but NBC was finding increasingly fewer roles for its one-time superstar. Television," Berle was one of the first seven people to be inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame in 1984. Berle made a notorious appearance with RuPaul at the 1993 MTV Video Music Awards, where the younger performer, appearing in drag as Berle had often done on television, made a remark that was perceived by many as treating the legendary Berle poorly. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Milton_Berle   (3158 words)

Lraft Music Hall As hostess and star of the Kraft Music Hall, she had the presence to overcome some ineptly chosen material, and to shine when the material was right. The hour was well-structured, wisely limiting itself to just three performers (Anthony Newley and Lou Rawls were her guess), each of whom had a solo stand, plus a bit with the others. That was Petula Clark, doing a one-woman, six-man show on NBC's Kraft Music Hall, with an "old friend," Anthony Newley, a "new friend," Lou Rawls; and - for a wacky opening - a cavorting quartet of long-handled brush-wielding janitors. www.petulaclark.net /tv/americantv/kraft.html   (283 words)

The Kraft Music Hall But when Kraft decided to move its "Music Hall" to television, the first host was not a musician, but a comedian -- Milton Berle. The next host, who became associated most with "Kraft Music Hall", was vocalist Perry Como -- both a known entity and a musician -- who had been the host of his own NBC-TV series from 1955-59 -- whose dreamy delivery and charm was the right ingredient to last until Winter, 1966/67 in this showcase.

Al Jolson - KMH In October, 1947, Al Jolson assumed the starring role on the Kraft Music Hall, a radio program he had introduced in the early 1930s. From the "April Showers" curtainraiser to the closing nostalgic refrain cued to cecollections of Luchow's 14th Street (N.Y.) restaurant as the "Stork Club of the '90s" Jolson breezed through the KMH stanza completely at ease, sparking the whole routine with a pacing and timing that can match the best of them. The J. Walter Thompson agency production boys have brought out all the top-shelf accouterments, even to the extent of endowing the Kraft show with a solid scripting assist, and if the getaway show clicked with just the correct tempo, writers Manny Manhein and Charles Isaacs rate billing with the rest of them. www.jolson.org /works/radio/kmh.html   (520 words)

Classic TV & Movie Hits - The Perry Como Show / Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall / The Chesterfield Supper Club Perry opened with his new theme, "Dream along with me, I'm on my way to a star...," there was a request spot introduced by girls singing "Letters, we get letters, we get stacks and stacks of letters!", and top-name guest stars engaging in easy banter with the relaxed Mr. The show would frequently close with Perry singing a religious or serious number, blending into the closing theme, "You are never far away from me..." When the show moved to Wednesday nights, Kraft took over sponsorship, and in 1961 a group of young players was added, backing Perry and his guests in regular comedy skits. Although Perry's regular weekly series ended in 1963, he remained popular with TV viewers and was seen every five or six weeks in Kraft Music Hall specials from 1963 to 1967. www.classictvhits.com /show.php?id=810   (508 words)

Thrilling Days of Yesteryear : Thrilling Days of Yesteryear Bing’s first KMH show was January 2, 1936, and from his debut, he set out to put his personal stamp on a program that he inherited from Whiteman and Al Jolson (Jolie had headlined the show briefly in 1934), with an hour of jokes, music and casual conversation. It was only after settling with Kraft that he returned for the final thirteen weeks, and after that, he jumped ship to ABC for Philco, beginning a three-year stint for them before defecting to CBS in 1949 as a result of William S. Paley’s notorious talent raids.
