Dangerously Yours 44-07-09 (02) The Pirate Of Orleans

Dangerously Yours was a half hour show sponsored by Vicks. There were sixteen episodes broadcast in 1944, with eleven of them available to collectors today.

Each episode seemed to star Victor Jory as the leading man, and concentrated heavily on romance, with much airtime being devoted to lovers murmuring sweet nothings at each other, and the action and adventure being relegated to backdrop status.

At the end of each episode, the announcer would give a very brief teaser for the following week's show.

Toward the end of 1944, the series changed its title and became known as Vicks Matinee Theater. A further twenty-five episodes were broadcast, with some of them being repeats of episodes broadcast earlier in the year. Of these twenty-five, twenty two of them are known to be in existence.
