Jackie Gleason entertained us from 1966-1970 from Miami Beach, Florida. He would entertain us each week with sketches that would make you laugh so hard it really was embarrassing. He would bring out his classic characters and the guest stars were the greatest. He would even have the honeymooners on the show and for most, that was a step back down memory lane. This was an hour each week that was pure entertainment. He would always say “And away we go” to start the show off, and in this collection you will get 12 never before seen episodes.
You will get 7 of
'The Honeymooners' episodes not seen since they originally aired. You will get 'Norton Moves In', 'The New Manager', 'The New Bowling Ball', 'Hot Tip', 'Lawsuit', 'Alice’s Birthday', and 'Six Months To Live'. Let me tell you...these are great. Gleason’s guests were the best. For instance,
Jack Benny, Frankie Avalon,
Florence Henderson, Phil Silvers, Groucho Marx,
Tony Bennett, Mickey Rooney, Milton Berle, and the fabulous
George Burns just to name a few. Jackie Gleason was an entertainer extraordinaire. For years we laughed, cried, sang songs, and hated him for some of the roles he played in film. He lived in and loved Miami Beach and was a fixture there for many years going up to his death.
Time Life is bringing this DVD collection to us on May 15th, 2018. The quality of the DVD is fantastic. The sights and sounds are perfect. You will want to pick this one up for your personal library and you will be going back to see it over and over for a very long time. Jackie Gleason was one of the best entertainers of the 20th century and if you were able to catch him on TV, Film, or live in person you knew when the show was over you had been entertained. So don’t waste any time and watch television history and be entertained like we use to be. Enjoy.
