I've got a question I hope some of you can answer for me. I remember seeing clips of a Honeymooners episode (or series of skits maybe?) where the the whole gang wins a World Cruise before.

Can anybody tell me if these episodes are on video anywhere, or does anyone have them who would be willing to make me a copy? I know somebody who is a big cruise fanatic, I'd like to give them these shows as a gift.

The series you're talking about is the "Trip-To-Europe" shows, where Ralph enters a cereal a slogan contest and wins a trip to Europe for 4. They were originally done in 1957 with the original cast, then again in 1966 on Gleason's Miami-based show which were in color. There were 9 one hour shows which made up that series and they were original musicals also. They are not available on video although Goodlife Network is showing the Miami shows right now, but I don't believe these episodes are part of the package.

"The Honeymooners" had given away trips especially in the color episodes.

I think the first poster hit it on the nose, those are the shows I was referring to. Does anybody know if they've ever been rebroadcast since the original run, and also are the '57 versions out there?

They were briefly syndicated in 1977 then disappeared. The 1957 versions have not been seen since their original broadcasts and were never made part of the "Lost" episode package.

so in other words the chances of finding them are virtually zero :-(
