Cavalcade of Stars (TV series)
Cavalcade of Stars is an American variety television series that was broadcast on the DuMont Television Network from June 4, 1949, until September 26, 1952. It was one of DuMont's longest-running programs. A 1951 review in The New York Times said the show "has proved the training ground for more than one new TV star". It was a major source of income for DuMont, combining with Captain Video and His Video Rangers to provide half of the network's revenue by 1951. Because of its limited budget, hosts who became popular on the show were lured away to host programs on other networks that paid higher salaries and had larger budgets for programs.
