Cash and Carry (1946–1947) watch online

Cash and Carry is an American television game show hosted by Dennis James that ran on the then-both affiliates of the DuMont Television Network from June 20, 1946, to July 1, 1947. This made it not only the sole program aired on Thursday nights by the network (although it moved to Tuesday nights in April), but also the first "network" television game show (all previous television games and quizzes were aired on only one station).

A July 6, 1947 newspaper TV listing showed the show was broadcast on WABD on Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m., immediately following DuMont's popular Small Fry Club.

This series was sponsored by Libby's Foods, and produced by Art Stark, later producer of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson from 1962 to 1969. The show was set in a grocery store, with contestants taking cans, which had questions for them to answer, off the shelves.
