[Woolworth27]

I notice on the honeymooners they used certin charcters names over and over again, on diffrent eps. For example the name Harvey been named on severly eps. On (The Bensonhurst Bomber) the guy Ralf, was about too fight was named Harvey.On (OH MY ACHING BACK) when Trixe, yells out the window, she says," I'll be right down Harvey". I know there where a few other eps. this name may have came up, I'm not sure what eps. they where in. Can anybody think of any other charcters names that where used time and time again on ether the L eps. or the C39 eps.?

In the case of the name Harvey, there was also Wohlstetter fils and père in "The Babysitter."

As to other recurring names, I can think of a few:
- Tommy (Tommy Doyle, Tommy Manicotti)
- Fogarty (reference to "Fogarty's old flat" in "Mama Loves Mambo"; "Mrs. Fogarty" in "Dial 'J' for Janitor")
- Joe (Joe Fensterblau in "Head of the House"; Joe Malone in the Lost Episode "Stars over Flatbush"; Joe Munsey/Rumsey in "The Deciding Vote")
- Fred (Freddie Muller; attorney Frederick Carson)
- Monahan (Mr. Monahan in "A Man's Pride"; the late Mary Monahan of "Ralph Kramden, Inc.")
- Herbert (Herbert Bascom, Herb Norris, Herbert J. Whiteside)
- Dick (Dick Gersh, Dick Prescott)

Also, Tony Amico (Alice's boss in "Brother Ralph") who was Gleason's valet. The actor was John Holland.

Grogan was another name that was thrown around quite a bit. Frank Marth played a cop named Grogan, and the neighbor that came by to borrow some milk in "Game Called On Account Of Marriage" was named Grogan too if I'm not mistaken. Ray Bloch's name was also used as a joke a couple times, specifically in the episode "Two Men On A Horse" when Ralph & Norton are at the track.

The name Fensterblau was also used in the episode "Cupid." Evelyn Fensterblau was the name of the girl that hung up on Ralph.

Yes, Bullets Durgom was used as the name of the killer that Ralph helped capture in both "Finger Man" and "The People's Choice." Also, the dentist Ralph goes to in "Ralph's Sweet Tooth" was named Dr. Durgom.

And I just found this about the 1967 remake of "The People's Choice":

"The People's Choice" was repeated on September 23, 1967, with songs and in color, as an episode of Gleason's Miami-based variety show (The name of the gangster was changed to "Knuckles Grogan" after the real Bullets Durgom -- Jackie's agent -- lodged a complaint.)
