An American anthology television series, sometimes credited with launching the television writing careers of American writers such as Gore Vidal, and of Australian writer Sumner Locke Elliott.
The Philco Television Playhouse shared a timeslot with the Goodyear Television Playhouse after Goodyear started sharing sponsorship of the existing Philco program in 1951.
The separation between the two is largely cosmetic, but for purposes of classification, the serials that ran under each banner are usually listed separately.
