VIC AND SADE
by Dick Judge (up-dated Feb 12, 2004)

This series was probably the most beloved radio program ever. Difficult todescribe, it was neither a soap opera or a comedy show - a little of both. The Gooks, Vic and Sade, were ordinary people living in a small mid-western town.  Vic was an office worker at a local plant; Sade, the housewife. Completing  their household was their adopted son, Rush (later Russell). Later on Sade's relative, Uncle Fletcher joined the group. The Gooks were happily married,
faced no challenges, no tragedies - they just experienced events that were both bizarre and hilarious. Vic and Sade began in 1932 and lasted as a daily serial-type show for 14 years. When last heard in 1946 the show went to a 30 minute format but this was short-lived, and then, alas, the end. Paul Rhymer, the creater/writer, was extremely prolific and was responsible for all the writing. Vic and Sade was one of the greatest comedy programs of all time. To give one an idea of what this was all about just think of the "nothing"
concept of the Jerry Seinfeld show - some every day events about nothing with topics ranging from shopping at the local department store; just sitting on the back porch, talking; watching a man learning how to smoke a cigar; drawing a mustache on a sleeping guest with a pencil; a horse that died; and on and on.

For additional information about this series or questions about the logs, please contact the author at dickjudge@juno.com.

This is not a true log of the show, only a list of all the Vic and Sade shows in existence. It is divided into two parts: the first being a chronological list, the second a listing of the first lines of each show. The latter being helpful for those who have "un-dated" shows and need a date.
