More details from TVShowsOnDVD:

Jackie Gleason was “must-see TV” ages before anyone coined the phrase. In 1952, “The Great One” began hosting his own weekly CBS variety series, which included a fanciful array of characters of his own creation: aristocratic snob Reginald Van Gleason III, child-like Fenwick Babbitt, cocktail-loving Rum Dum, wise-cracking Joe the Bartender, the befuddled Poor Soul, loudmouth Charlie Bratton and, most famously, bombastic bus driver Ralph Kramden in The Honeymooners sketches. This special 70th anniversary commemoration of The Jackie Gleason Show brings together all of the legend’s favorite characters in hours of rare material spanning the 1950s and 1960s when Gleason was a top ten hit on Saturday nights for millions of viewers. A full hour-long edition of The Jackie Gleason Show from 1953 with musical guest Peggy Lee provides the opportunity to view the program as it originally aired, complete with vintage commercials and the spectacular June Taylor Dancers, who open the show. Comedic sidekick Art Carney makes a surprise appearance on a 1960 Gleason special in which he teams up with the star for a Ralph Kramden and Ed Norton reunion. Additionally, for the first time on home video, Gleason’s 1962-1966 American Scene Magazine series is celebrated with a selection of favorite sketches including long-lost segments of The Honeymooners. The subsequent 1966-1970 run of The Jackie Gleason Show is represented with seven more Honeymooners rarities and other surprises in color. The legacy and laughter of Jackie Gleason is further revealed in the 2006 documentary Genius at Work hosted by comic and lifelong fan Jeff Garlin (The Goldbergs). These are truly timeless TELEVISION TREASURES. Starring Jackie Gleason, Art Carney, Audrey Meadows, Sheila Macrae, Jane Kean, Sue Ane Langdon, Joyce Randolph, Frank Fontaine, Elizabeth Wilson, and musical guest Peggy Lee. 2-disc set.

Snowpack, does this mean that this set actually includes Incredible World of Ed Norton???

I doubt it, but the full list of sketches doesn't seem to be out so who knows. It does mention "surprises in color," but that could be non-Honeymooners sketches. It definitely has "The Big Sell," "Two Below," and "TV Game of the Week," and it seems to have the seven color sketches that were on that Time-Life DVD set a few years ago.

It will be an interesting collection. If the Gleason/Carney sketch is from the “Big Sell” special, it’s one of the few that takes place completely outside of the apartment set. It’s them having lunch together in a park. It’s also fairly brief. The Reggie sketch with Phil Harris from that same show is very funny, but he’s not listed as a guest, so it’s doubtful it will be included. If they include the 2 Honeymooner sketches from American Scene that will be nice to finally see all of them. (The bomb shelter one is already out). Carney did do a walk on spot during Gleason’s monologue in another show, not in character as Ed Norton (though Gleason has him do a quick bit as Norton bowling). It will nice to see hopefully better quality ASM shows. The 4 they are airing on Tubi are very decent quality. Would be fantastic if they include any material from the short lived 30 minute Gleason variety show from 58-59 with Buddy Hackett. It was on this show he debuted Rum Dum.

Any more news on this DVD set?

The 7 HM short sketches are included per MPI listing of the set.

According to this site, it is a total of 7 hours, so don't expect a full run of anything. Probably a handful of previously unreleased shows. I guess MPI finally realized they could no longer get away with repackaging previously released material and selling it as "new". So, "Genius at Work", included in this set, means they are down to 6 hours of possible new material.

Thanks T-Greg. I guess that means no Incredible World of Ed Norton which means i am not interested in this.

Greg E. posting. Have not seen a post of yours in years. Glad to know some of us are still around.

It's been a long time!

Any updates on specific content on the DVD set?

Anyone get the DVD yet? We are all curious to know all of the sketches that are on there.

Release date is April 26th

Thanks. I figured maybe someone preordered it and it arrived in their hands early.

Just released…a worthy addition to any Gleason collection. A full episode of Jackie’s variety show from the 50’s, some rarer sketches with Reggie, Rum Dum, Poor Soul, Joe the Bartender, and Jackie “Wow-Wow” Gleason & Sid Fields from American Scene Magazine in the 60’s (and these are great looking video…they really should think about a release of just that series). All the short color Honeymooner sketches from the 60’s variety show (which have already been released), a Honeymooner sketch from “The Big Sell” special, the Great Gleason Express train trip as seen on the Steve Lawrence Show.

June Taylor dancers opening, original commercials, doesn’t appear to be any music cuts (even Crazy gets to sing in the shoe the Bartender scene).

Some real nice stuff.

Thanks Gleasonclown. I guess that confirms that there is no Incredible World of Ed Norton.

Not a surprise though.

Correct, no “Incredible World of Ed Norton” sketch. But for sure, some rare stuff, especially from American Scene Magazine

Crazy Guggenheim (Frank Fontaine) was a wonderful singer. Who would have known, just looking at him? Jim Nabors too.

Crazy Gugenheim is one of my favorites too and it was so infuriating watching that Time-Life Gleason set every time they went to Crazy as soon as it came time for the song it was cut out!

The good news is Crazy Gugenheim is also regularly featured on the Sounds Like Radio podcast I listen to:

https://anchor.fm/your-humble-host

The host there imitates Crazy talking and then just like the Gleason show he leads the dialog into a great Frank Fontaine song. You can hear "Crazy" talk and the real Fontaine sing on these episodes of Sounds Like Radio:
Episode 33
Episode 59
Episode 66
Episode 92
All shows there feature really nice music and the Great Gildersleeve, also are detective radio shows, Jean Shepherd (the guy who created "A Christmas Story) radio shows, really a little bit of a lot of different good stuff with some neat stories included told by Boris Karloff and others. But if all you want is Frank Fontaine then so far the episodes named above is where you'll find him. He's sure to be featured in future episodes too as he's one of the semi-regular folks on the show.;)
