About this product

Product Information

Although it only aired for one season, The Honeymooners remains one of the funniest and most beloved TV shows of all time. Its brilliant comic interplay has influenced television comedy throughout the years, and its trademark one-liners have carved out a permanent spot in American pop culture ("one of these days, Alice!"). This collection includes every episode from its sadly limited 1955-56 run--a total of 39 episodes, affectionately known as the "classic 39." Rediscover the magic and hilarity as Brooklyn bus driver Ralph Kramden (Jackie Gleason) trades barbs with his feisty wife Alice (Audrey Meadows) and plans get-rich-quick-schemes with his upstairs neighbor Ed Norton (Art Carney).

    A timeless Classic for the ages.

    Speaking of my own personal bias, the Honeymooners is my all-time favorite and number one show. Norton! Hey dere Ralfie boy! So much incredibly good writing, musical orchestra in the pits for the 3 stages with a centered primary stage, that pulled off so much original material, with meticulous timing, and the seldom miscues which worked to its benefit for that human touch, just cannot be reduplicated in today's grand scheme of things. From the opening and closing theme song written by Jackie, and the orchestra answered every action on stage with utter brilliance. The live audience reactions fueled the genius on the set for everyone to play off each other, like how musicians do when performing together. All the episodes were great, with the "Classic 39" being the epitome of their culmination of their works together. Sheer brilliance at every level of this Honeymooner concept. Only once in a lifetime are treated to such wholesome laughs. Honeymooners forever!

    Ok but

    The Honeymooners What else can be said Just Great! But am disappointed with the dvd menu options with this release as there is " NO OPTION TO PLAY ALL " you have to select the episode to play and when it's over back to the menu . I like to binge watch the dvds without having to work the remote. The DVD menus are poorly thought out and amateurish.

  • Some of the Best evr created

    Jackie Gleason is one of the all time greats. He is joined by additional all time greats, Art Carney, Jayne Meadows. Classic episodes. Some of the funniest skits ever done. Most having memoriable lines that are still uttered today by fans, and other fans know exactly the episode, scene and who stated it.

  • Greatest comedy show ever made pal. You can't go wrong.

    This is a great set, containing all 39 classic live episodes, without a doubt, the funniest comedy program ever aired. You can't go wrong, pal. The show was actually filmed live, in front of a studio audience...out over the airwaves real time. Nobody does that anymore, or ever did it as well ever again.

  • ''THE HONEYMOONERS-THE COMPLETE CLASSIC 39 EPISODE SERIES''.

    This 69 year old series will always be one of the best TV comedies of the late 1950's. Sadly this past January, actress Joyce Randolph who portrayed the fictitious character Trixie passed away. So now all 4 main cast members are gone. But despite this, they will always be remembered for bringing laughter and joy on TV screens around the world. I just bought the d.v.d release of the complete series today. Rest in peace to them all.

  • Tt

    The whole disc set is great, I still laugh as hard as when I first saw the show, it's really too bad there's only 39 episodes, these 4 Actors can teach the comics of today about how to make people laugh without having to use bad language or stupid sex jokes!!

  • The Honeymooners: What a Great Value!

    I watched this series when I was very young. Our whole family thought it was hilarious. Ralph is always scheming and always losing out, his plans forever coming to naught. For my money, this was probably the best cast on television in its era. The stories still entertain, and I am very pleased to be able to share this with my children today. I was eyeing them while we watched the first few shows, and they were laughing just as loudly as I did back when. The situations are ridiculous, but the underlying condition of our plight as humans remains the same. In other words, this show is timeless! Plus, my family gets to learn what life was like back in the 1950s--the things that mattered to us and the the situations that we were concerned with. The quality of the DVDs is better than expected. Of course, the shows are in black and white, but that only testifies to the product's faithfulness to its roots. I think, had they put this in color, that it would have lost some of its authenticity. I would compare this product to a vinyl 33 rpm record and digital sound today: we get all the music but without the scratches that one would expect to find in the original recording. Nicely done! I highly recommend this product as it provides hours of entertainment at a very low price.

  • At least as funny to me now as when first ran.

    This television series takes me back to my childhood, the early television days. Humor that evokes at least at much laughter from me as it did at that time. I can only say "wow"..

  • And Away We Go!

    God we loved Jackie Gleason, the CD is so clear and perfect, we just bought a new SONY Player/Recorder for CD's and VHS tapes, I've seen shows at 74 years old I don't remember, there are 39 shows, I didn't know it only ran that long? Yes. yes I can still remember watching "The Jackie Gleason Show" live! He would do short skits, musical acts, then he did The Honeymooners, and Jackie was smart like Lucy and Dezi, he filmed all his shows, what insight! Jerry
