Synopsis:

Join The Honeymooners as they take their famous "Trip to Europe"...and this time they travel in color. Originally performed during the 1956 - 1957 season over eight shows, their journey now is introduced by the 1954 "Box Top Kid" sketch, revamped as the new "In 25 Words Or Less" in which Ralph and Ed win their trip. The Jackie Gleason Show kicked off the 1966 - 1967 season by bringing back The Honeymooners, but with a few changes: the show was in color, musical performances were added and, in addition Art Carney returning as Ed Norton, Sheila MacRae and Jane Kean joined the cast as Alice and Trixie. The Color Honeymooners Collection 1 includes nine, one-hour episodes of The Jackie Gleason Show digitally re-mastered and unedited. Included are Gleason's glamorous Glea Girls, The June Taylor Dancers, Sammy Spear & His Orchestra and announcer Johnny Olson.

The Color Honeymooners (aka 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.

The Color Honeymooners, as it has since become known, featured Sheila MacRae and Jane Kean in the roles of Alice and Trixie, respectively (Meadows and Randolph did not want to relocate to Miami). One notable 1967 segment featured the return of Pert Kelton (in one of her last performances; she died the following year), this time playing Alice's mother, Mrs. Gibson.
