NOTE: This page is missing info on the DuMont Network, which started daytime transmission before any other United States television network.
There is some dispute as to the exact lineup on DuMont in the winter. The above listing is according to What Women Watched: Daytime Television in the 1950s (University of Texas Press, 2005) by Marsha Cassidy. This would create a conflict with some other sources that have TV Shopper still in the lineup at this time.
On Dumont, Okay, Mother was previously aired on New York based WABD channel, then the network flagship station.
