- W2896541798 abstract "The long-running radio show Amos ‘n’ Andy made its fi rst television appearance in 1951 after the Columbia Broadcasting Service (CBS) paid a record $2.5 million for its rights and Blatz Beer agreed to sponsor the program. The show tracked the wacky adventures of African American southern migrants Amos Jones and Andrew Brown as they struggled to make their way in Harlem as proprietors of the Fresh Air Taxi Company. Amos and Andy experienced a variety of ups-and-downs, marriage, parenthood, as well as a laundry list of failed business ventures and get-rich-quick schemes. Since its debut in 1929 through its phenomenal success during the Great Depression and decline thereafter, Amos ‘n’ Andy and most of its characters had been voiced by the show’s creators Freeman Gosden and Charles Correll, both of whom were white. Throughout this time, although the program had been periodically condemned for its portrayals of African Americans, the characters in Amos ‘n’ Andy remained among the most popular and recognized ones in show business. CBS recognized that casting for the television version would be important and it held a talent search for black actors to fi ll the lead roles. Amid a fl urry of press coverage, millions of Americans awaited the reintroduction of the show.1" @default.
