I did, It was pretty good, Personally, I didn't think it was long enough. Brad Garrett was absolutely terrific as Jackie Gleason.
He had him down pat. Maybe they'll rerun it. You never know.

It was an awesome movie; Brad Garrett was great as Jackie Gleason. Also, the two people who played Audrey Meadows and Art Carney were almost identical, the casting was great. I noticed it was a Hallmark movie, so more than likely it will be repeated on the Hallmark channel in the next few months.

I didn't see it but read a few reviews which said Garrett was great but the whole movie was a depressing and completely unflattering picture of Gleason.

and made it a point to see it,

but did not recorded it, why do L do these things, LOL.

Yes, Gleason took a lot of lumps in life.

But he ran it well.

He is greatly admired by many.

I saw the movie. I would never have thought of Brad Garrett to play this role but he did an excellent job. The movie realistically portrayed Jackie's life including his faults and foibles. It was as much drama as comedy. However it was a fascinating look into the personal life of one of our most beloved celebrities.:cool:
