Saluting a 24-karat specimen from television's golden age. "The Honeymooners" was introduced in 1950 on the Dumont network's "Cavalcade of Stars," the first TV series showcasing Jackie Gleason. It was conceived simply as an occasional sketch about a blustery Brooklyn bus driver named Ralph Kramden (Gleason) and his endearing wife Alice (then Pert Kelton). It remained just a sketch when Gleason moved to a CBS variety hour in 1952. But by 1955 the success of the sketches led to a half-hour series—the best sitcom ever canceled after one season. In "Lost Baby," Ralph finds an abandoned infant on his bus and brings the child home to the Kramdens' dingy apartment, lovingly entertaining ideas of adoption. In "Quiz Show," Ralph gets a comeuppance for calling Alice stupid. Also: recollections from Art Carney, who played the Kramdens' neighbor Ed Norton, and scenes from "Honeymooners" classics. (60 min.)
