She seems rather...buoyant. Would need to see the front to ascertain the reasons.

Sadly, I didn't know who Alice Kramden was, I fail. I had heard the line before, but the name didn't ring a bell. Never saw the Honeymooners:

The hip hop genius Sir Smokes A Lot also referenced her in his classic, "I Wanna Talk to Sampson"......

Yeah, would have lost me there too. I've seen Half Baked, but it's been awhile.

Whippersnappers!

You ain't lived till you've squinted at a blurry picture on a round, 8", black and white Philco with a pathetic raster rate.

Or stood with your hand on the antenna trying to get a better picture. Or fiddled with the v-hold. Or been jealous of someone who actually had a rooftop antenna.

It was syndicated for years and in those days you didn't have 300 TV channels to choose from. Art Carney was hilarious on that show.

The oldest syndicated shows I watched were Nick At Nite stuff in the 80s and 90s like I Love Lucy, Dick Van Dyke, Andy Griffith, Get Smart, Mister Ed, etc. I don't think Honeymooners was ever shown.

This was back in the 70s before cable was widespread. I lived in NJ and some of the independent stations there like WPIX , WNEW and WOR aired a bunch of syndicated shows. If I remember right, The Honeymooners was on WPIX, channel 11. It's a good old show, probably too corny for some people these days.

You should try watching the Honeymooners and the George Burns show. Both are some of the best comedy you'll ever watch.

I went off the cable/dish "grid" about eight years ago. I got by just fine with over-the-air (and Hulu and First Row) in Minneapolis. It's a bit different now that I'm in Jacksonville.

I've had to revert to the age old cure all – aluminum foil dangling from the rabbit ears.

I fondly remember the days when a piece or two of Reynolds Aluminum would save the day.

My better half is addicted to cable channels. I have a 13" tv on a mount in the garage that I made a UHF antenna for out of a piece of wood, some 10 gauge copper and miscellaneous parts laying around. It still works better than any antenna I have bought. Works for me. Kind of similar to this:

But I digress.

I don't know, something about this one smells fishy.

Sorry, sorry.
