Gruen Playhouse (also known as Gruen Guild Playhouse) is a dramatic anthology series that aired on ABC and the now-defunct DuMont Television Network.

Sponsored by the Gruen Watch Company, the series aired on ABC on Thursdays at 9:30pm ET, and on DuMont on Thursdays at 9pm ET. From January to March 1952, Gruen Playhouse alternated with Shadow of the Cloak on DuMont.

The 30-minute dramas featured actors such as Carolyn Jones (in her TV debut), Raymond Burr (in his TV debut), and Bonita Granville. An early episode was written by Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry.

Two DuMont episodes are held in the collection of the UCLA Film and Television Archive, along with a single ABC episode.
