Movie Reviews of The Color Honeymooners Collection 2

Movie Review: Color Honeymooners are top notch
Summary: 5 Stars

I have both the classic "39 series" as well as several of the color episode discs. At 49, I do recall the latter in 1st run on CBS Saturday nights in the 1960s. To me, I prefer the color episodes for several reasons: they were filmed and not transfered from kinescope; they are musicals & include quality music scores and dance scenes; they are in color. The addition of Jane Kean & Sheila MacCrea is fine, as they perform at least equal to Meadows and Randolph (in fact Randolph had a lot less dialogue in the '50s than Kean does here). Collection 1 gives you the exceptional European excursion, whereby the boys win an all-paid trip after winning a jingle contest. This edition is just as good as the girls cope with the boys' simple-minded attempts at fame and fortune. It is pure relational humor that is non-political, non-PC. The Kramdens & Nortons won't try to preach or persuade one in the way later "socially conscience" shows (read Norman Lear) did. Enjoy. -SL

Summary of The Color Honeymooners Collection 2

The Color Honeymooners (a/k/a The Jackie Gleason Show), a top-rated comedy/variety program aired, from the sun and fun capital of the world Miami Beach! on Saturday night from 1966-70 on CBS-TV. This long-running series marked the final weekly TV show for The Great One.

Reprising their famous characters from The Honeymooners, the cast was led by Jackie Gleason (Ralph Kramden) and Art Carney (Ed Norton). Newcomers Sheila MacRae and Jane Kean played long-suffering wives Alice and Trixie. Like popular variety series of the time, the show s format was a clever combination of new comedy sketches coupled with classic Honeymooners bits. Plenty of big name guest stars and a generous helping of singing and dancing rounded out the hour.

Regulars included Gleason s glamorous Glea-Girls; the June Taylor Dancers; Sammy Spear and His Orchestra, and announcer, Johnny Olson.
