This was posted on the Honeymooners Facebook page earlier. Maybe one of the Facebook members here can ask this guy what he's talking about...

Bill-
Do you know which Honeymooners page (there are quite a few)?

Do you know what the original post was about or know the date?

My thinking is they would have to be talking about Harry Crane, correct?

If they're talking about "Bread," it would have to have something to do with Harry Crane, but since it was only a sketch, there technically was no pilot episode. I haven't seen the "test run" Gleason did on The Colgate Comedy Hour in September of 1951, but maybe the wife in that sketch was named Nora. Either that or Nora was considered before they settled on Alice. It's hard to say because of the way the comment was worded. It was in response to the latest post here: https://www.facebook.com/TheHoneymoonersTV

I just messaged Terry Calhoun on Facebook asking which pilot & who the writers are. I'll keep you posted.
