What happens

The Dinah Shore Show is an American television variety show that was broadcast by NBC from November 27, 1951, to July 18, 1957, sponsored by General Motors' Chevrolet division. It aired from 7:30 to 7:45 Eastern Time on Tuesday and Thursday nights, rounding out the time slot which featured the network's regular evening newscast (John Cameron Swayze's Camel News Caravan), which, like all such programs of the era, was then only 15 minutes in length.
