- The Halls Of Ivy was a short-lived television adaptation of the smash-hit radio series, bringing back its original stars, Ronald Colman and Benita Hume.
This is the only episode of the show that I could track down. If anyone else has any of them, please do let us all know!

Originally telecast on May 17, 1955.
Adapted from a December 1951 radio episode.
When a college education meant something. When the curriculum was about truth, goodness and beauty.
As a teen I would watch old Ronald Colman on "the late, late show" - which has totally disappeared from American culture. His "Goldwyn" films were so thrilling: classy and prestigious
This is such a lovely, sweet show. Wish I could find more of them.....very tender and gentle entertainment. Impossible to find anymore. Thank you for posting.
I've been listening to the radio show for about 8 months. What a lovely adaption. I hope more episodes are found soon.
Mr. Adam Roche, Thank you for putting this television show on here for people who want to watch and hear decent family shows.
Classic!
This was a wonderful show, it would have been nice to have more of this show from the television era. It was also great to see Ronnie and Bonita since hearing them both as Jack Benny’s next door neighbors on Jack’s radio show, they were both added humor on that show.
Ronnie and Bonita were also mentioned on the Burns & Allen Show, as friends whose parties George and Gracie would attend.
Intelligent, witty, articulate, and dare I say, kind. Would never even get past the proposal stage today.
Here's a bit of trivia for you. At the time, 'The Halls of Ivy' was the most expensive half hour television series, with each episode budgeted at $50,000.
Where did the money go? This was rather low budget
What a charming little program! I vaguely remember seeing it as a little kid. I remember it being sponsored by International Harvester.
PLS PLS POST MORE!!!
When it aired on the CBS Television Network (1954-55), it was sponsored by International Harvester & Nabisco
On the difference between "shall" and "will". I once had a lawyer tell me that "shall" is just a stronger form of "will". I replied "yes, if you believe "are" is a stronger form of "is". Anyhow, it isn't that difficult. I shall; you will; he, she, it will; we shall; you (all) will; they will.
For the subjunctive and commands, you reverse them. For the conditional, it's "should" and "would", which follow the same pattern.
Think of the commandments, "thou shalt not kill"; God knew that the reality was that people would kill, but he commanded that they shouldn't.
Pedantic, I know, but there it is. I admit that I don't around saying things like "I shouldn't do it if I were you", but I feel a pang of regret when I realize I don't have the guts to say it correctly.
I liked Ronald in Random Harvest. Thanks for the rare TV show.
Thank goodness your back Adam I thought maybe you had left us for good
No no no, always working on stuff! Just takes a while, but thank you!
Adam, Thank you for posting this. I've been a big fan of Ronald Colman since I was a teenager, many decades ago. For the last few years I've been totally addicted to listening to The Halls of Ivy radio show here on RUclips and have been so sorry that there didn't seem to be any videos of the tv show. I'm very grateful to find that there is at least this one episode to watch again and again. Thank you for this early Christmas present. God bless you.
No worries, and if I find any more I'll post them here!
The 31st of 38 episodes, broadcast 5/17/55. Francis Perlot, who plays Professor Royce, had died 6 days earlier. He reminds me a bit of Ed Wynn.
Then it is a truly fitting memorial.
The professor, played by veteran actor, Francis Pierlot. I thought initially it was Ed Wynn.
Where can we get even one more of this show? I love the radio program so much. Alas, what the woke demons have done to the colleges.
Ken Carpenter, announcer.
Famous announcer in the 1940s and 1950s. Often associated with Bing Crosby's radio show.
Ken also announced the radio show (for Schlitz- "The Beer That Made Milwaukee Famous").
