Paul Rhymer was considered one of the outstanding American humorists during the 1930s and 40s, when his "Vic and Sade" radio series was the premiere daytime serial, one based on humor and not melodrama. In 1936, "Vic and Sade" was named the best-written program on radio. Two years later, radio writers voted Rhymer as best script writer and in 1940 the Motion Picture Daily said the program was the best daytime serial. Rhymer wrote more than 3,500 scrips for the series, and could count Upton Sinclair, James Thurber, and Ray Bradbury among his fans.

Books by and about Rhymer include &quot;Vic and Sade: The Best Radio Plays of Paul Rhymer&quot; (1976), and &quot;The Small House Halfway up the Block&quot; (1972).
