I loved that show! I used to watch it in my room with my little TV and it used to complete my night, chan. 11! I hope they bombard the TV airways with it!!!!!!!!!!!1

The shows set mostly consisted of just one little room, it was in black & white, low budget, no violence, no sex, no foul language but yet it was better and funnier than most trashy idiot sitcoms pumped out by Hollywood today.

If I had to make a guess I'd say that 80% of young people today (under the age of 22) don't know who he (Art Carney or the show) was and that they would be bored with it. Why, because there's no gore, no drugs, no foul language, no sex, and no completely dysfunctional characters in it.

The show was about simple hard working caring people who loved each other very much but got themselves into some funny situations.

To be honest I don't think most people today can comprehend the entire concept because it's way beyond their warped incomplete minds to watch something so simple.

Most people today don't think that the people like in the show can actually exist. The Cramdens & Nortons were the kind of people that most viewers today don't want to think about or see, they were way too normal for the small, everything must be dysfunctional to get my attention viewing mind of today's TV.

It's beyond most viewers mentalities today to understand or embrace the Honeymooners.
