Ethel Waters created the role for ABC-TV in 1950, replaced in 1951 by Hattie
Mc Daniel who played the part on radio since 1947. When McDaniel became ill,
Louise Beaver took over as Beulah until the series ended in 1952.

Except for some days off now and then, posts are made daily. The plotlines are summarized and quirky aspects of the stories and production are identified and put in some context.
There are also links to each episode as they are posted.
This has been my favorite series since I started in the hobby (gasp!) more than 45 yrs ago -- gosh I'm old! :)
I hope what I'm finding in the show history and the productions make the show as enjoyable for others as I find it to be.
