I am not sure i am spelling it right or not but does anyone know if old kinscopes of 1950s sitcoms done live were ever replayed in syndication. i know the lost honeymooners was. what about Mr Peepers. I have been enjoying them on dvd and i had always asumed they were lose for good. if these have always been around did Peerers every do time in syndicated reruns, if so when and where. thanks

The Honeymooners is the only show that I know of that has ever been syndicated. They actually tried to syndicate Mr. Peepers for a time back in the mid-80s but it never happened. I don't know what the reason was, either not enough sales or another story I heard was Tony Randall didn't want it seen. I can tell you that of the 127 shows done, 102 exist in UCLA's archives.

well, last New Years, my local PBS station was showing old sitcoms and game shows from the 50s and early 60s all night, and they showed an old episode of "Mr. Peepers" that was on Kinescope.

this is interesting. i do no there was some station in the 1980's that aired kinescopes of "My Little Margie", i wonder if they did so poorly the decided to drop the idea and never went ahead whith the mr peepers plans.
kinscopes can be hard to watch, but if it is something that is good, you dont even get bothered by it. like the quality of the peepers i have is awful yet i am just so happy they exist and i can see them at all i don't care.
i wonder what other stuff is out there....

my local PBS station used to show old episodes of Christmas shows and Christmas specials from the 50s every year around a week before Xmas (they still do, but now they only show 3 or 4 of them, on Christmas eve) and a lot of the shows were on kinescope-a couple from as far back as-ready?-1947!!!!

And another local station was showing, back in 1989, old shows every Sunday during the summer to celebrate the 50th anniversary of television (actually, TV goes back further than 1939, but 1939 was when it was first shown to the public-at the Chicago Worlds Fair that year. In fact, it was used to show President Roosovelt presiding over the opening day ceromonies)

Anyway, some of those were on kinescope. Again, a couple from the late 40s!!!

I believe the question was about series in syndication. All of these other things are just one-offs or PD episodes of a show or two of a series.
