"The Honeymooners"-1950's (USA) Black and white sitcom) Jackie Gleason was a pioneer at this art. A quote from one website:
THERE WAS little rehersal--Gleason liked it that way--and there were no second takes--the show went out live. The sets were painted cardboard (with the only apartment doors in the world that opened out instead of in). And nobody imagined this short run series of half-hour episodes would rerun continuously somewhere on TV for the next 50 years... TV was a "brave new world" at that time and Gleason's humor was a polished and sometimes abrasive art. Having seen most of them as a child when I would have rather been watching
"oaters"...(i.e. cowboy and westerns), watching reruns of "The Honeymooners" is definitely not my cup of tea, but I can appreciate the art that went into them.
The the summery clothes that Janeyanne has been wearing in her individual thread are somewhat reminiscent of the clothes that AUDREY MEADOWS & JOYCE RANDOLPH (the two female leads) use to wear...sans the flashing of course

).
The program still, as pay indicated, is one of the best of the best in sitcoms.
Now enough of this 'silly walk" and back to the
"Penelope and Janeyanne Show."
