Growing up in the NY/NJ area during the 1980's, one of the best hours on TV were 11pm to Midnight on channel 11 WPIX. It was The Odd Couple followed by The Honeymooners and every weekday night, during the summers, I would watch them on a 13'inch b/w TV my older brother gave me. Year after year, episode after episode, I saw them all, plenty of times. This episode of The Honeymooners was among the best of the original 39. I still remember some of my favorite lines, "Hey, Ralph, he's even bigger than your friend Shirley", "A pox on you and all your ancestors" and of course, the unforgettable "Get a load of fatso over there" Honeymooners is a classic show that I never tire of watching.
I can confirm this also.. from bx, NY. I might add ours was 13" b/w on top of color RCA wood floor model, then another 20" panasonic that neither worked. Also a clothes hangar for an antenna, and plyers to change the channel..lol. Good times for sure.
@@mikeguaraldo Same here. It was extra-special that they were both NYC-based shows from different eras. Ralph and Ed spoke like my elder family who grew up in Brooklyn
Grew up on the Lower East Side.. I was a kid in the 80s and stayed up late to watch the Odd Couple, The Honeymooners and Cheers . Then when I was older, my best friend and I would stay up all night on the phone together and watch the Honeymooners marathon on NYE. I was heartbroken when I moved out of NY and could no longer see the honeymooners every New Years.. our tradition ended! 🥲 Thank you , UA-cam ❤️❤️ finding these episodes is like a warm hug on a cold winter day!
I think the entire sewer system of NYC should be changed to : The Edward L. Norton Sewer system of NY embossed on ALL the manhole covers! !!!! SUPER COOL!
As a teenager growing up in East Flatbush Brooklyn in the early 70s. The summer routine was the 10 o’clock news then the Honeymooners followed by the Burns &Allen show. Life was simple due to less choices. But, the quality of what was available goes untouched.
I've seen all these episodes literally dozens of times each......and they never get old (and they never seem dated)......Jackie Gleason was pure comedic genius.
@@JohnSmith-mx8wp Yeah, remind me again, how old they are, in September, this year, 2021, I just became 66, and I still say the year, 1960 is the start of "modern times".
This was my dad's fav tv show! Today is the anniversary of his passing, so I usually watch Honeymooners and his favorite movies and its like hes right there with me
My condolences to you Steve. My Dad passed over 44 years ago, and I still have fond memories of he and I watching this on WPIX Channel 11 back in the mid 1970s.

I had just moved to N.Y.C. from U.K. to be with my girlfriend, 1983, staying in her Auntie's house out on the island, watched this most nights in our small room on a teeny telly and loads of Star Trek repeats if I recall correctly. Classic television. It's 11pm. Do You Know Where Your Children Are?, I'll never forget that, seemed so strange.
Every year on New Year's Eve starting at 11pm on WPIX-11 here in New York starts the annual Honeymooners Marathon!!!! Every year me and my family(well what's left of my family that is) always watch it. Never ever miss it even though they never seem to show all 39 Episodes!!
I used to live in Bensonhurst Brooklyn Kama from 1956 through 1965 oh, then moved out to Amityville Long Island. Today is April 17th 2022. The Honeymooners one of the greatest TV comedies ever on television.
First time I saw this the ending was unsuspecting and hilarious! I bought the box set for my hometheatre, library. Watched this rerun as a child with many family members now sadly gone, relieving those times through these classics, thanks for the upload. Old black and white classics from the golden age of entertainment, simply the best!
Did you know I have a video on this on my channel about there being a Mandela / quantum effect in it? The line was " I'll twist him into a pretzel" not bend. That's why Norton says " I'm not the one who said I'll twist you into a pretzel he did' My Sister and I are huge fans and we knew it was "twist" See, first he says "twist" into bookends and then he used to say "twist" him into a Pretzel. That's what happens when Scientists at CERN and D Wave mess with the quantum filed.
Saw all these episodes in living "black and white" every Saturday night while dad shined our shoes and sister in curlers after our baths to prepare us for Sunday morning church. Loved them then and more now. Seen them so many times I can say their lines along with them.
70s & 80s I watched the Honeymooners with my dad & every show there was during that time.Its 2022 & still can't get enough of the Honeymooners.I watched it with my friends even my girlfriend when I was a kid.Honeymooners will go beyond 2022 with whomever loves it.
With any kind of justice the people who watched it growing up in the 70s, like me, will introduce it to their children, who will then introduce it to their children.......
I grew up watching both the Odd couple and the Honeymooners on WPIX in the 1970’s. I had to buy the box set when I moved out of NYC but it wasn’t the same, I now watch them both on classic channel called “MeTV” in California and it’s like being back in the Bronx with my brother and cousin. I never tire of Ralph and Norton, I read their lines as they perform their roles, simply classic.
This comedy is classic. It stands up extremely well even today which is about 70 years since these episodes were made. Jackie Gleason was fabulous and Art Carney was fabulous how he played the 'idiot'. Comedy gold!
The best comedy show along with Jack Benny...BUT the best show ever in tv was The Twilight Zone...I just turned 75 on 01 02 24 and have seen my share of shoes...
I love this episode! It’s amazing the Honeymooners were my first memories as a 6 year old in 1981. This shows intro and MASH meant it was bedtime for me and my little 3 year old brother. Amazing.
Yes!!! That line always freaked me out and stayed with me for over 36 years from when I first watched the Honeymooners.. like he covertly always wanted to see Ralph get his ass kicked or at least humiliated because Ralph would always pick on him.
Probably the best sidekick of all time in sitcoms. Imagine they did most of these shows in a single take because film was so expensive. In several episodes you can see them laughing with thier backs turned. Much more talent then today's so called greats.
Absolutely love the honeymooners I can remember watching these shows with my grandfather and great grandfather back in the early 60s late 50s and to this day around the holidays when they play the honeymooners marathon I watch them all like they were still on television today not every episode every line and they still crack me up RIP to the whole cast from making one hell of a show that stands the test of time
Makes me long for those warm summer evenings sitting in the den with my dad watching the Honeymooners while my mom would sit near by reading a book, but still laughing at the funniest parts. I miss my parents and those days
I'm amazed by the quality of this show, especially when i realize it was realised on 50's. We have a remake of this comedy from 1998 in Poland and it has a legendary status here, Polish actors bring it on even higher quality. What is more: the scenario is still up to date after 50 years.

Jackie Gleason and art Carney were a great team both had. a true talent for comedy and true icons.a true classic is when you keep watching and never get sick of them. May they rip.
This is one of my favorite episodes. Very special to me. One of my best friends dad is in this episode. He played George. We watched this together when I was at my buddy's house. We were both students at the High school of Performing Arts in NY at the time. It was really inspiring to see what a great actor could do.
@@beani24329 lololololol! Not at all. He was a great actor. He did a good deal of Broadway. If you look him up on IMDB, you'll see him on "The Twilight Zone" as a NASA engineer! Great actor, great guy!
Man this is excellent! The Harvey dude is a classic example of the Ganster dudes back in the 40's . I BELIEVE he played a ganster in a movie! He looks mean all the time even when he is being nice! Perfect dude to play Harvey!!!
Having a photographic memory and perfect concentration was just 2 of Jackie Gleason's wonderful gifts .He also disliked rehearsing any thing so every thing you see is completely original and spontaneous
@@louisd95714 Its common knowledge he NEVER rehearsed. I've seen several interviews where he said as much. He said when you rehearse alot the act gets stale. He was a genius. And in the movie the hustler he made his own pool shots.
Honeymooners will always be the best!The laughter in these episodes are to funny,it brings tears to my eyes just laughing.Love it! I enjoy the whole series set I got for Christnas one year. Its worth it❤️
I love the honeymooners. Jackie Gleason makes me laugh so hard!!!! I have 2 box sets of the honeymooners on DVD and I’m gonna get the box set of the Jackie Gleason show to add to my collection next.
Like others, been watching this show since I was a little kid in the early 60s. Never get tired of it. The amazing thing was finding out they only filmed one season, it seemed like many. Ed and Ralph, one of the great comedy teams ever.
The Great One was interviewed in 1984 by Morley Safer. The Great One was asked why The Honeymooners were so successful in reruns, so many years later? The Great One says, “I can come up with 20 academic answers, but I will give you one…because it’s funny” F’n LEGEND!
LOL is that the same suitcase Ralph found all that counterfeit loot in. Still one the greatest show that ever been on TV. And it look like Norton could beat Ralph behind. if he didn't how to cover up his face. LOL
If I tell you for years now I don’t ever go to sleep without watching at least 2 hours of the honeymooners you’ll think I’m lying but then again I’m sure most of you that love that show as much as I do Will believe me .just love it .
You're right. Laurel and Hardy were great, too, The Three Stooges, and Abbott and Costello could be entertaining, but none of them were as great as Jackie and Art.
More like no rehearsal. Jackie would just glance at the script and go live: "Every man for himself!" Audrey Meadows was always scared stiff, but you'd never know it.
From what I've read and seen, even though it was live-to-air, Gleason wanted the cast to not worry if they occasionally missed a cue or blew a line. He said real-life conversations are never word-perfect or neatly synchronized, so they shouldn't aim for perfection. To that end, he preferred for the cast to be under rehearsed rather than over rehearsed so that there was always room for spontaneity.
When something is funny, it doesn't matter what era it's from funny is just funny, I can watch this countless times and almost recite the lines that are coming up, but I don't care I love watching it
The first couple of minutes are perfect, Norton snatches the coin, he could have messed that up, who breaks was great, Norton scratches and they just keep going etc. Perfect.

The actor who played "Harvey" was George Mathews, a year after George appeared in this episode, he was a supporting cast member of the 1956 film "The Last Wagon" Directed by Delmer Daves. George played Sheriff "Bull" Harper who tracked down Comanche Todd (Richard Widmark), and took him prisoner and also co-starring a very young Nick Adams. The film was shot on location in Sedona, AZ near the mouth of Oak Creek Canyon, George played his role, much as he did in this Honeymooners episode, "tough guy". If you are into Western films, I highly recommend this, with beautiful high Desert scenery and shot in Deluxe Color and CinemaScope............
TY for posting that! Harvey always intrigued me and I loved his character here. Just found The Last Wagon, free on YT and watched "Harvey- Bull Harper" do his thing. Same Brooklyn accent, funny how in the Old West a Brooklyn accent existed...
@@bluesky6449 I am very pleased that you enjoyed the "Last Wagon", as they say, " they don`t make movies like that anymore"! I feel that George was a very underrated actor, he always put in a no-nonsense performance whenever he appeared. By the by, I use to live in Arizona, once you get a short distance from the cities, Tucson, Green Valley and Apache Junction etc. the landscape is as you see it in the film, beautiful country and ultra dry and many Indian reservations dotted around. thank you bluesky for your comment.........
@@giraffesareselfish9563 Hello Cat! I remember that episode too, with close to 500 GUNSMOKE episodes to recall, it is not easy. Thanks Cat for your comment.......
@@reyshielharding3987 I agree, they do tend to run together. It's difficult to find Gunsmoke episodes. Paramount+ has a few seasons, 7 I think, but they are all Chester episodes, which are good, but not enough.
I remember watching reruns of the Honeymooners and Amos & Andy back to back 6-7pm in 1960. I was 8 years old. Every time I hear that theme song, it takes me back. Great times.
Jackie Gleason: "The Honeymooners lasted as long as it did, because it was funny." How true! He ended the series after the famous 37 because he felt that the material was getting thin, they were running out of ideas, and he didn't want to cheapen it. Absollute classics!
He says “ let me show you the results of a misspent youth “ is a reference it a mark twain quote. A “ proficiency in pool is a sine of a misspent youth “

@@louisd95714 Its common knowledge he NEVER rehearsed. I've seen several interviews where he said as much. He said when you rehearse alot the act gets stale. He was a genius. And in the movie the hustler he made his own pool shots.
@@trent3872 I must have read wrong then.
Actually, Willie Mosconi was filming the shots in the Hustler
Honeymooners will always be the best!The laughter in these episodes are to funny,it brings tears to my eyes just laughing.Love it! I enjoy the whole series set I got for Christnas one year. Its worth it❤️
I love the honeymooners. Jackie Gleason makes me laugh so hard!!!! I have 2 box sets of the honeymooners on DVD and I’m gonna get the box set of the Jackie Gleason show to add to my collection next.
I can't get enough of the honeymonner's.
Like others, been watching this show since I was a little kid in the early 60s. Never get tired of it. The amazing thing was finding out they only filmed one season, it seemed like many. Ed and Ralph, one of the great comedy teams ever.
Thank you for this!! One of my fave episodes 😆
The Honeymooner's is an awesome 😂 crazy show 😅 Love it.
Jackie Gleason was actually an excellent pool player.
Played Minnesota Fats
All those guys were back then.
Made his own shots in The Hustler move, whereas Paul Newman had a professional player make his shots.
What a time the 50s in new york must have been. Cigarettes were the only requirement.
@@dwaynesisto5185 Loved that movie.
Jackie Gleason and Art Carney , two of the most brilliant actors ever
Great chemistry between the two.
Norton is hilarious!🤣🤣🤣👍
Excellent slapstick comedy at it's best 😂
Every New Year I cuddle up and watch the Honeymooners. Classic television.
The Great One was interviewed in 1984 by Morley Safer. The Great One was asked why The Honeymooners were so successful in reruns, so many years later? The Great One says, “I can come up with 20 academic answers, but I will give you one…because it’s funny” F’n LEGEND!
LOL is that the same suitcase Ralph found all that counterfeit loot in. Still one the greatest show that ever been on TV. And it look like Norton could beat Ralph behind. if he didn't how to cover up his face. LOL
One of the greatest comedy duos in history, was Carney and Gleason. Comic genius, right up there with Laurel and Hardy and Chaplin.
Don't forget Betty White and Bea Arthur.
Yep! And Gleason was a devoted fan of Oliver Hardy and paid homage to him from time to time. Check out 22:20 and the way he says, "I certainly do!"
don't forget the three stooges
🤪😵🥴
@@inthenameofthefather.7240 I k I I i I I iiii
@@inthenameofthefather.7240 Yeah. I agree. The 3 Stooges were definitely another great comedy duo!
If I tell you for years now I don’t ever go to sleep without watching at least 2 hours of the honeymooners you’ll think I’m lying but then again I’m sure most of you that love that show as much as I do Will believe me .just love it .
So happy I found this on… it a show to make me laugh🤪 whenI need to pause 😢when I get stressed
One of the funniest episode ever. Harvy.
There is no team better then Gleason and Carney, They were God's gift to Television.
You're right. Laurel and Hardy were great, too, The Three Stooges, and Abbott and Costello could be entertaining, but none of them were as great as Jackie and Art.
@@joemarshall4226 Hey Joe i agree with every word..We were lucky to have enjoyed them all.
@@joemarshall4226 Can't leave Andy Griffith and Don Knotts out of that conversation
Andy & Barnie were pretty darned great too.
@@giraffesareselfish9563 Thank you!! My thought exactly.
Great LIVE performers with almost no rehearsal. This kind of talent is greatly missed.
I have heard that the cast did rehearse, except for Gleason. He said he wanted it to be fresh for filming. Another reason he's The Great One.
More like no rehearsal. Jackie would just glance at the script and go live: "Every man for himself!" Audrey Meadows was always scared stiff, but you'd never know it.
From what I've read and seen, even though it was live-to-air, Gleason wanted the cast to not worry if they occasionally missed a cue or blew a line. He said real-life conversations are never word-perfect or neatly synchronized, so they shouldn't aim for perfection.
To that end, he preferred for the cast to be under rehearsed rather than over rehearsed so that there was always room for spontaneity.
Never gets Old! Love the Honeymooners 💯👍 🚌🚌 🌝
When something is funny, it doesn't matter what era it's from funny is just funny, I can watch this countless times and almost recite the lines that are coming up, but I don't care I love watching it
Every New Years Day Is The Honeymooners day i can't believe there is still 1 actress still alive from this show
Joyce RANDOLPH PASS AWAY THIS YEAR THE VERY LAST ACTRESS 😢 RIP
One of the greatest shows ever
I love how Norton acts as the fight promoter.
Love the blooper Harvey makes in this scene with his hands
I will always LUV this show. I have the dvd set. 💗
This is definitely my favorite episode 🤣 😭 😂 😍
I’ve seen every episode so many times I know them all word for word.
Nothing beats the Honeymooners. To not hear the theme song is a crime. And the Jackie Gleason Orchestra is wonderful music as well.
All in the family is the only better sitcom!
Yes, I was looking forward to that. I missed it.
The first couple of minutes are perfect, Norton snatches the coin, he could have messed that up, who breaks was great, Norton scratches and they just keep going etc. Perfect.
It's a "cern"....lol
Heads I win tails you lose. That was a phrase used by many comedians.
What a classic man my friend Harvey
Great memories when I was a kid watching this with my mom every night!❤️🥰😅
What a great show!!
One season of LAUGHS!!
Thanks for watching.

The actor who played "Harvey" was George Mathews, a year after George appeared in this episode, he was a supporting cast member of the 1956 film "The Last Wagon" Directed by Delmer Daves. George played Sheriff "Bull" Harper who tracked down Comanche Todd (Richard Widmark), and took him prisoner and also co-starring a very young Nick Adams. The film was shot on location in Sedona, AZ near the mouth of Oak Creek Canyon, George played his role, much as he did in this Honeymooners episode, "tough guy". If you are into Western films, I highly recommend this, with beautiful high Desert scenery and shot in Deluxe Color and CinemaScope............
TY for posting that! Harvey always intrigued me and I loved his character here. Just found The Last Wagon, free on YT and watched "Harvey- Bull Harper" do his thing. Same Brooklyn accent, funny how in the Old West a Brooklyn accent existed...
@@bluesky6449 I am very pleased that you enjoyed the "Last Wagon", as they say, " they don`t make movies like that anymore"! I feel that George was a very underrated actor, he always put in a no-nonsense performance whenever he appeared. By the by, I use to live in Arizona, once you get a short distance from the cities, Tucson, Green Valley and Apache Junction etc. the landscape is as you see it in the film, beautiful country and ultra dry and many Indian reservations dotted around. thank you bluesky for your comment.........
@@reyshielharding3987 Seems like i remember seeing him in an episode of Gunsmoke but I can't remember the name of the episode.
@@giraffesareselfish9563 Hello Cat! I remember that episode too, with close to 500 GUNSMOKE episodes to recall, it is not easy. Thanks Cat for your comment.......
@@reyshielharding3987 I agree, they do tend to run together. It's difficult to find Gunsmoke episodes. Paramount+ has a few seasons, 7 I think, but they are all Chester episodes, which are good, but not enough.
I remember watching reruns of the Honeymooners and Amos & Andy back to back 6-7pm in 1960. I was 8 years old. Every time I hear that theme song, it takes me back. Great times.
Jackie Gleason: "The Honeymooners lasted as long as it did, because it was funny." How true! He ended the series after the famous 37 because he felt that the material was getting thin, they were running out of ideas, and he didn't want to cheapen it. Absollute classics!
Classic must see episode... these two at their best in this one!!!!!!
Great acting is why this show was so great.
For those who might not know, Gleason was a superb pool player.
He really was! And he started as a boy in the 1920s.
He says “ let me show you the results of a misspent youth “ is a reference it a mark twain quote.
A “ proficiency in pool is a sine of a misspent youth “
I hear yes he was good in movie hustler movie
Jackie Gleason was super great actor yes Norton was great too both so funny
He played Minnesota Fats in The Hustler with Paul Newman.
I've seen every episode. Loved the honeymooners!
Amazing how these shows were done live and the actors had such chemistry and beats were spot on
Pernters… Reminds me of my My dad’s heavy Bronx accent
Loved this show!!! Watch it everyday, so much fun. Jackie is 😂😂😂😂 hilarious!!!!! Love him!!!!!!! Art is great, so 🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀. 2022....
