As did Gleason. His portrayal of Minnesota Fats in The Hustler is still, I think, the go-to for that archetype.

I will have to check that out! Thanks for the tip!

Have many fond memories of watching The Honeymooners with my Dad at our small black and white t.v. in the kitchen. That and the Lone Ranger. :)

Kevin James based his “King of Queens” series, I believe, on the Honeymooners. There is one episode where Doug falls asleep on cough medicine and dreams that he and Carrie are in the Honeymooners. Deacon is Norton. :)

Dear Lord, I watch too much t.v. LOL!
