[Please read] “I’m the king, and you’re nuthin’!” A punchy look at “Ralph and Alice Kramden” trading jibes on the classic American television comedy series THE HONEYMOONERS. Sources: dozens of “Lost Episodes” from THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW as well as the “Classic 39.” Time frame: 1952-1956. Proposed destination: the moon. Actual location: Brooklyn, New York. Let the fireworks begin.

Note: clips almost always appear chronologically.

This video’s music features excerpts from the song “Melancholy Serenade” composed by Jackie Gleason and recorded in 1953.

IMPORTANT: Questions or comments are sincerely welcome—but only if they are nice, clean, and comprehendible. If you are a professional and prefer that I delete this video, please contact me and it will promptly be done.

Video dedicated fondly in memory of Audrey Meadows and Jackie Gleason.

FYI! This video of goodwill and appreciation has a sequel: my RALPH & ALICE: IN OTHER WORDS video, hosted by my friend “sockdancer.” Watch it on YouTube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rz26Ux08CxU
