NOTES: With Paramount rolling in coin with Hope and Crosby, Warners had their own cut-rate version with Dennis Morgan and Jack Carson. Although this duo’s pairings are not well remembered they were capable enough to gain 10 suburban week screenings while dividing up the rest between Saturdays and Tuesdays. The western Davy Crockett Indian Scout was the predominant sidekick.
