Stump The Stars (originally known as the Pantomime Quiz) was an American television game-show hosted by Mike Stokey and Pat Harrington, Jr.. It aired on ABC, CBS, DuMont and NBC from July 3, 1950 through October 9, 1959, mostly as a summer replacement show. Mike Stokey hosted all of the incarnations during the 1950s. The show did not air at all in 1960, nor 1961. But on September 17, 1962, Pantomime Quiz was back on the air, this time on CBS as Stump The Stars, with Pat Harrington, Jr. as the emcee. However, Stokey replaced Harrington one week before Christmas Eve of 1962, and held on to those duties until the end of the run on September 16, 1963. Then, after a five-year absence, it returned in syndication as Mike Stokey's Stump the Stars, running from 1968 through 1970. Stump the Stars has the distinction of being one of the few (if not the only) television series to air on four different TV networks in the USA (This was before the birth of the Fox network in 1986).
