(WGN America) (Not the Chicago feed of WGN):
Sun. Aug. 31, 2008 9p #026 - "Young Man With A Horn": The discovery of his old cornet and an unexpected visit by a self-made millionaire prompt Ralph to wonder why he hasn't achieved more success and hit the "high note" in his life. As a result, he decides to make a list of his good points and do something to correct his bad ones. (VCR Plus Code: 382870.)
9:30p #027 - “Ralph’s Big Mouth” (aka "Head of The House"): In the hilarious "Head of the House" (originally telecast March 31, 1956), Ralph marks his "emancipation" as king of his castle by sitting down with Norton to finish a bottle of wine that is "a little strong but good." Their first toast, Ralph says, is "to my wife, who has finally found her place." Actually, what Alice found was a bottle of grape juice, which she substituted for the wine. When the men get plastered and pass out, Trixie and Alice pour their own drinks and make their own toasts. "I give you our husbands," says Trixie. "You can have 'em," says Alice. The wine-and-grape-juice scene, Art Carney recalled, was one of his favorites. "We really were laughing at each other...because we were supposed to be laughing...crocked and everything. Funny scene." (VCR Plus Code: 474325.)
Sun. Sep. 7, 2008 9p #028 - "The Worry Wart": Ralph's nerves are taxed when he gets a letter requesting his presence at the IRS office. Alice tries to calm him by reminding him that many people have their returns reviewed. "You're darn right," Norton agrees. "The jails are full of them." Norton, in fact, is helping Ralph review the business deductions he made on his returns and then lends his buddy moral support by accompanying him to the IRS office. (VCR Plus Code: 824674.)
9:30p #029 - "Ralph Kramden, Hero At Large" (aka "Trapped"): While leaving the pool hall, Ralph witnesses a bank robbery and takes a bullet through his hat. That's reason enough for him to believe that the thugs will come gunning for him, so Norton tells his on-edge pal to just relax and watch some TV. "What's playing tonight?" Ralph asks. Norton's reply: "Dead Men Tell No Tales." Bibbo: Frank Marth. Danny: George Petrie. (VCR Plus Code: 831484.)
"The Bensonhurst Bomber":
George: "Gee fellas, we were already to play. Me and Harvey just went to get a cold drink."
Ralph: "Well, I hope it was pretty cold and I hope it was milk."
"Opportunity Knocks, But":
(The boys are in Mr. Marshall's mansion.)
Butler: "Mr. Marshall will be here shortly. He's in the library."
Ed: "The library? He should be here soon. The library closes at 9."
"Cottage For Sale Part 1":
Mr. Mosby: "I am going to do for you what I did for my mom when she wanted a cottage."
Ed: "You are going to buy one for us?"
"Cottage For Sale Part 1":
Ed: "The door is busted."
Alice: "Ed, don't be ridiculous. This is a dutch door."
Ed: "Boy those dutch people must be very short."
"A Weighty Problem Part 1":
(Ralph comes home from the job upset.)
Ed: "Well Ralph, what kind of day has it been today? Has it been a day like all others or one that illuminates our lives?"
Ralph (yells): "SHUT UP!"
"Young At Heart":
Ed: "You are supposed to waddle like a duck."
Ralph: "How can I do that?"
Ed: "It's easy. Just walk like you always do."
"King of The Castle":
Ralph: "All the time, Trixie has been interrupting Ed's night's out by calling him on the phone and saying: 'Come home! Come home!' and all the time it is for nothing."
Alice: "This time, she wanted him over. Her mom was home."
Ralph: "That's the perfect reason for him not to come home."
"Without Reservations":
(Ralph and Ed are in the run-down hotel.)
Ralph: "Would you stop with the wisecracks Norton? When the girls get here I wanna make a good impression!"
Ed: "If you wanna make a good impression, keep the door shut!"
"Poor People of Paris":
Ralph: "If I were you, I wouldn't go out in the month of May."
Ed: "Why?"
Ralph: "Because that is when they gather nuts."
