Honeymooners to air on MeTV in Prime Time

[stevea]

Effective May 26th, MeTV will air the classic 39 episodes at 9:30 pm EDT on weeknights, replacing Gomer Pyle USMC.

It's unknown if these airings will include the lost episodes taken from the 1950s Jackie Gleason Show, sourced and edited from live show kinescopes. The initial airings will be the classic 39 episodes from 1955-1956

I'm assuming it's just for the summer. 39 episodes isn't a lot. I wish they would replace Mash with something new.

But at one a day 5 nights a week you could still go about 2 months without seeing the same episode. That's not all that bad.

I don’t think they will include the lost episodes as Catchy Comedy (their sister network) airs them at 2a Tue-Sat. Also, the lost episodes are kinescopes. They can’t be put in HD because of it. The Classic 39 episodes (the HD versions) have made their way into syndication. MeTV is in HD. Catchy is not. The HD prints of Classic 39 really make the lost episodes look pale in comparison and because of that, stations with HD feeds are might be reluctant to touch kinescopes even the retro networks.
