Drama at Eight was an American television program which was broadcast on the now defunct DuMont Television Network. The series ran during the summer of 1953. It was a dramatic anthology which aired Thursday nights from 8 to 8:30 PM (giving the series its name) on most DuMont affiliates. The series was cancelled after just four episodes were broadcast, although additional episodes continued to air locally on DuMont's New York station, WABD until October 1, 1953.[1]
