The Amos & Andy Show "Andy The Fugitive" (5-26-44)- Boxcars711 Old Time Radio Pod

Published: Jan. 9, 2008, 11:21 p.m.

Amos 'n' Andy, still written entirely by the two stars, was the top-rated program of all in 1930, with a 54.4 rating and 30 million listeners (compare that to the Super Bowl's 44.2 rating in 2004). By this time, the wily, coniving Kingfish was becoming a major personality, eventually supplanting sensible Amos as star of the show (Freeman Gosden gave voice to both characters while Charles Correll played Andrew H. Brown).
