Results Incorporated - New Series On RUSC

Results Incorporated is a mystery-comedy-drama starring Lloyd Nolan as private detective Johnny Strange and Claire Trevor as his secretary-cum-partner Terry Travers. The series began with Johnny running two ads in the newspaper. The first one, in the personals column and all in capital letters appeared as follows: “Results Incorporated, your problem is our problem, will locate your long-lost uncle, work your crossword puzzle, hold your baby. Where others fail, we succeed.” The other ad went, “Help wanted, female. Secretary wanted, blond, beautiful, between 22 and 28 years, unmarried, with the skin you love to touch and a heart you can’t”.

Haunted House was the first episode of Results Incorporated and was broadcast on October 7th, 1944. The Mutual Broadcasting System broadcast the series and each 30-minute episode was aired on Saturdays at 9 pm. There were only 13 episodes produced and the run ended on the 30th of December 1944.

As far as I am aware there are only a couple of these episodes still in existence. We have the first one, which was added to RUSC today (Thurs., Feb. 17th, 2005), but if you have any other episodes that you would like to share with RUSC please let me know, we would love to hear them.

Happy listening my friends,
