My Dad and I used to watch the Jackie Gleason Show. Dad turned 90 last June, but his memory is not so good and I don't have anybody to share these memories with anymore. So I thought someone on free republic might have some.

Art Carney made that show, just as he did in the Honeymooners. One of the best “second bananas” in the business.

The Joe the Bartender skit with Frank Fontaine was a lot of fun also.

My Dad just turned 90, and we were talking about Jackie Gleason, the June Taylor dancers and his bartending sketches where he regularly brought in Art Carney and Crazy Guggenheim on Thursday night.

A different country. A better country. And we were better people.

I remember when Ralph asked Ed Norton why he carried such a large lunchbox.Ed said that was so it would float better in the sewer when he was eating lunch.

We watched as a family every week. Do you remember when Jackie broke his leg on air? We were watching that night.
