For me, it has to be the Man From Space.

Same here, simply a great episode has everything you could want and more.

My second favorite is Teamwork Beat the Clock.

There are a few I could cite - "The $99,000 Answer," "Better Living Through TV," "The Sleepwalker," "A Matter of Life and Death," "Head of the House" . . .

I'm new to the Boards so I hope all of you don't mind me jumping in on this one. My all-time favorite episode is "Please Leave The Premises".

Good pick. That IS one of the funniest of the 39. I especially like the bit between Ralph and Alice: "You've got fingers in your gloves, fix the silverware". Ralph's reply (and I still wonder if it was an ad-lib) was priceless: "How'd you like some fingers in your nose!?" LOL

I'd be willing to bet he ad-libbed that line. I'm sure that are lots of times he had to do that. What was always open is coming back at Alice with some threat of violence...maybe he could not remember his line, or maybe Alice said something different than what was in the script and he had to come up with something quick. You just never know, because they never missed a beat.

Bensonhurst Bomber!

Better Living Through TV, or, as I will always call it, "The Chef of the Future."

The first half is merely perfunctory, but the live "TV commercial" is hysterical.

CAN, ha ha!

I forgot to add that bit between Ralph and Alice to my post but I think it's absolutely hilarious. That episode has a unique aura to it that appeals to me.
I can't quite put my finger on it as to why that is but there's something special about it.

Out of the Classic 39, I'd have to go with "A Matter Of Record" and "The Sleepwalker." As for the Lost Episodes, I'd say "This Is Your Life" and "Peacemaker" are equally funny. I can watch all four of these over and over and never get sick of them.

In the lost episode category my 2 favs are "Teamwork Beat The Clock" and "Ralph's Sweet Tooth"

W.B. · 09-02-2006, 10:11 PM

As for the color Honeymooners, "The Honeymooners In England" (a.k.a. "The Mod Couple" ) and "Ralph Kramden Presents" rank among my favorites, with "Life Upon the Wicked Stage" not far behind.

vedastone · 09-03-2006, 07:24 AM

My favorite lost episodes are "Letter to the Boss" and "Stars over Flatbush". Both contain loads of classic Honeymooners humor and the writing is excellent, with lots of surprises in the story line.
