The writing on the Honeymooners was great, but it took this outstanding and talented cast to make it work. Still a great show more than 60 years after it's debut. And Ms meadow's was a comic genius on the show, along with Jackie and art Carney. Love Joyce Randolph also.

When my mother died in 1977 there was a woman who lived up the street her name was Margaret but everybody called her muzi for some reason she took a liking to me and she kind of adopted me. She was a spitting image of Audrey Meadows her mannerisms the hair color the facial structure the eyes everything, she was just a wonderful I will never forget her. She was a wonderful loving women from Ireland and I was a little boy came to the US from, the irony is she never had children she would have been a great mother.

No doubt about that. I don't watch predictable modern sitcoms at all. Why, when one has watched the Honeymooners, there is nothing to compare with it. I'm like Costa and watch the shows over and over. And, oddly, they seem as fresh and hilarious as the first time seeing them. And they personify a (austere) time period familiar to many who grew up in that era.

He's not just fawning over Audrey Meadows for the sake of the show, he's a genuine fan. I would have liked Bob to jog Audrey's memory on filming specific moments in the show that we all love and wait for. Also, he never asked her about the abrupt end after just 39 episodes. That had to be a big disappointment for the rest of the cast.
