October 27, 1953 - June 21, 1955 (ABC TV) July 6, 1955 - June 12, 1963 (CBS TV) The first two years on ABC The U.S. STEEL HOUR presented mostly one hour dramatic plays. With their move to CBS there was more diversity in the subject matter. For this broadcast "The U.S. Steel Hour" departed from its usual dramatic format presenting a musical version of "The Importance of Being Earnest," Oscar Wlde's farce about mixed identities, snobbery and the fancy of a young girl for a dashing man she's never met and who doesn't really exist. Dorothy Collins and Edward Mulhare star in this adaptation. Songs, include, "Mr. Bunbury," "Perfection," "My Eternal Devotion," "My Eternal Devotion," "A Wicked Man," "Metaphorically Speaking," "Lost, and "My Very First Impression" NOTE: The one television musical Dorothy Collins appeared in her career. In ten years this showcase anthology series presented over 200 live plays, the likes we will never see again on contemporary television. UCLA FILM & TV ARCHIVE has over 80 U.S. STEEL productions in their collection, but not "WHO'S EARNEST" which also is not archived by The Paley Center for Media or The Library of Congress.
