Radio Variety and Music Programmes

Radio shows built from music, comedy and live performance, such as A Prairie Home Companion, the Grand Ole Opry, The Bell Telephone Hour, Command Performance, Don McNeill's Breakfast Club and The Chase and Sanborn Hour. A work belongs here when its article calls it a variety or music programme. Programmes are placed by the format their cited article names for them, and each programme sits in exactly one group of this subcategory, so a series that fits two formats goes where its article places it first.
