In the 1950s the old time [[Radio Drama|Radio Dramas]] gradually died out, with [[Television]] taking over. The era (in the USA) is generally considered to have ended with the last network radio dramas ''Suspense'' and ''Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar'' on September 30, 1962.▼

However, this didn't prevent there from being nostalgia years later... which eventually led to a brief revival of radio drama in [[The Seventies]]. The longest-lasting series of this revival was the ''CBS Radio Mystery Theater'', which lasted from 1974 through 1982. It was created by Himan Brown, radio veteran from shows like ''[[Inner Sanctum]]'', and narrated by E. G. Marshall for most of its run, with Tammy Grimes in the last year. Himan Brown narrated a brief rebroadcast in 1998. Of course there is now nostalgia ''for'' the series.
