Self - Entertainer. By its final season, Gleason's show was no longer in the top In the last original Honeymooners episode aired on CBS "Operation Protest" on February 28, , Ralph encounters the youth-protest movement of the late s, a sign of changing times in both television and society.
The network had cancelled a mainstay variety show hosted by Red Skelton and would cancel The Ed Sullivan Show in because they had become too expensive to produce and attracted, in the executives' opinion, too old an audience.
Gleason simply stopped doing the show in and left CBS when his contract expired. Gleason did two Jackie Gleason Show specials for CBS after giving up his regular show in the s, including Honeymooners segments and a Reginald Van Gleason III sketch in which the gregarious millionaire was portrayed as an comic drunk.
He later did a series of Honeymooners specials for ABC. Gleason hosted four ABC specials during the mids. Gleason and Carney also made a television movie, Izzy and Moe , about an unusual pair of historic Federal prohibition agents in New York City who achieved an unbeatable arrest record with highly successful techniques including impersonations and humor, which aired on CBS in In , three decades after the "Classic 39" began filming, Gleason revealed he had carefully preserved kinescopes of his live s programs in a vault for future use including Honeymooners sketches with Pert Kelton as Alice.
These "lost episodes" as they came to be called were initially previewed at the Museum of Television and Radio in New York City, aired on the Showtime cable network in , and later added to the Honeymooners syndication package.
Some of them include earlier versions of plot lines later used in the 'classic 39' episodes. The storyline involved a wild Christmas party hosted by Reginald Van Gleason up the block from the Kramdens' building at Joe the Bartender's place.
Gleason did not restrict his acting to comedic roles. Gleason made all his own trick pool shots. He was extremely well-received as a beleaguered boxing manager in the movie version of Rod Serling 's Requiem for a Heavyweight Gleason played a world-weary army sergeant in Soldier in the Rain , in which he received top billing over Steve McQueen.
Gleason wrote, produced and starred in Gigot , in which he played a poor, mute janitor who befriended and rescued a prostitute and her small daughter.
It was a box office flop. But the film's script was adapted and produced as the television film The Wool Cap , starring William H.
Macy in the role of the mute janitor; the television film received modestly good reviews. Gleason played the lead in the Otto Preminger -directed Skidoo , considered an all-star failure.
In William Friedkin wanted to cast Gleason as "Popeye" Doyle in The French Connection , but because of the poor reception of Gigot and Skidoo, the studio refused to offer Gleason the lead; he wanted it.
Both were unsuccessful. Eight years passed before Gleason had another hit film. This role was the cantankerous and cursing Texas sheriff Buford T.
Gleason's gruff and frustrated demeanor and lines such as "I'm gonna barbecue yo' ass in molasses! Years later, when interviewed by Larry King , Reynolds said he agreed to do the movie only if the studio hired Jackie Gleason to play the part of Sheriff Buford T.
Justice the name of a real Florida highway patrolman, who knew Reynolds' father. Reynolds said that director Hal Needham gave Gleason free rein to ad-lib a great deal of his dialog and make suggestions for the film; the scene at the "Choke and Puke" was Gleason's idea.
Reynolds and Needham knew Gleason's comic talent would help make the film a success, and Gleason's characterization of Sheriff Justice strengthened the film's appeal to blue-collar audiences.
Halpern and Mr. Johnson He also gave a memorable performance as wealthy businessman U. Bates in the comedy The Toy opposite Richard Pryor.
Although the movie was critically panned, Gleason and Pryor's performances were praised. His last film performance was opposite Tom Hanks in the Garry Marshall -directed Nothing in Common , a success both critically and financially.
For many years, Gleason would only travel by train; his fear of flying arose from an incident in his early movie career.
Gleason would fly back and forth to Los Angeles for relatively minor movie work. After finishing one movie, the comedian boarded a plane for New York.
When two of the plane's engines cut out in the middle of the flight, the pilot had to make an emergency landing in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Although another plane was prepared for the passengers, Gleason had enough of flying.
The owner asked Gleason why he thought anyone would lend a stranger so much money. Gleason identified himself and explained his situation.
The store owner said he would lend the money if the local theater had a photo of Gleason in his latest film.
However, the publicity shots only showed the principal stars. Gleason proposed to buy two tickets to the movie and take the store owner; he would be able to see the actor in action.
The two men watched the movie for an hour before Gleason appeared on screen. The owner gave Gleason the loan, and he took the next train to New York.
Gleason was greatly interested in the paranormal , buying and reading numerous books on the topic, as well as books on parapsychology and UFOs.
Gleason met dancer Genevieve Halford when they were working in vaudeville , and they started to date. Halford wanted to marry but Gleason was not ready to settle down.
She said she would see other men if they did not marry. At the end of his show, Gleason went to the table and proposed to Halford in front of her date.
They were married on September 20, Halford wanted a quiet home life but Gleason fell back into spending his nights out. In early , Gleason suffered a broken leg and ankle on-air during his television show.
His injuries sidelined him for several weeks. Halford filed for a legal separation in April Gleason met his second wife, Beverly McKittrick, at a country club in , where she worked as a secretary.
Ten days after his divorce from Halford was final, Gleason and McKittrick were married in a registry ceremony in Ashford, England on July 4, In , Marilyn Taylor encountered Gleason again when she moved to the Miami area to be near her sister June , whose dancers had starred on Gleason's shows for many years.
She had been out of show business for nearly 20 years. In September , Gleason filed for divorce from McKittrick who contested, asking for a reconciliation.
Gleason's daughter Linda became an actress and married actor-playwright Jason Miller. Their son, Gleason's grandson, is actor Jason Patric.
In , he suffered chest pains while touring in the lead role of Larry Gelbart 's play Sly Fox ; this forced him to leave the show in Chicago and go to the hospital.
He was treated and released, but after suffering another bout the following week, he returned and underwent triple-bypass surgery.
Gleason delivered a critically acclaimed performance as an infirm, acerbic, and somewhat Archie Bunker -like character in the Tom Hanks comedy-drama Nothing in Common This was Gleason's final film role.
During production, it was determined that he was suffering from terminal colon cancer , which had metastasized to his liver. Gleason was also suffering from phlebitis and diabetes.
Gleason kept his medical problems private, although there were rumors that he was seriously ill. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

He traveled back to Broadway where his reviews were brilliant for Follow The Girls , and Billy Rose hired him for his glitzy, star-studded night club, The Diamond Horseshoe.
He reconciled and separated again from Gen, and played clubs from New York to L. Gleason signed with CBS on November 23, The Jackie Gleason Show , which commanded more than team members as production staff, actors, dancers, musicians, choreographer June Taylor , technical crew, wardrobe and make-up, was broadcast live for the first time on September 20th of the following year.
Saturday Night. Both shows were owned by Gleason. The episodes of The Honeymooners became known as the "original thirty-nine. In , he and Genevieve divorced.
In addition, he hosted or guest-starred in 17 television specials, created the annual Inverrary Golf Classic, filmed five Honeymooners specials, released The Lost Honeymooners for syndication, which includes all episodes other than those filmed during the season.
In he underwent quadruple coronary bypass surgery. In , Jackie was diagnosed with diabetes and phlebitis, but he knew his condition was more serious.
On June 24, Jackie passed away from colon cancer at his home in Inverrary. Following this he would always have regular work in small clubs.
Gleason worked his way up to a job at New York's Club 18, where insulting its patrons was the order of the day. Gleason greeted noted skater Sonja Henie by handing her an ice cube and saying, "Okay, now do something.
He also had a small part as a soda shop clerk in Larceny, Inc. Robinson , and a modest part as an actor's agent in the Betty Grable — Harry James musical Springtime in the Rockies.
During World War II , Gleason was initially exempt from military service, since he was a father of two. However, in the US started drafting men with children.
Gleason reported to his induction where the doctors discovered that his broken left arm had healed crooked, the area between his thumb and forefinger was nerveless and numb, a pilonidal cyst existed at the end of his coccyx , and that he was pounds overweight.
Gleason was therefore classified 4-F and rejected for military service. Gleason did not make a strong impression on Hollywood at first; at the time he developed a nightclub act that included comedy and music.
At the end of , Gleason and Lew Parker led a large cast of entertainers in the road show production of Olsen and Johnson 's New Hellzapoppin.
His pals at Lindy's watched him spend money as fast as he soaked up the booze. Gleason's first significant recognition as an entertainer came on Broadway when he appeared in the hit musical Follow the Girls Gleason's big break occurred in , when he landed the role of blunt but softhearted aircraft worker Chester A.
Riley for the first television version of the radio comedy The Life of Riley. William Bendix originated the role on radio but was initially unable to accept the television role because of film commitments.
Despite positive reviews, the show received modest ratings and was cancelled after one year. Bendix reprised the role in for a five-year series.
He was working at Slapsy Maxie's when he was hired [10] to host DuMont's Cavalcade of Stars variety hour in , having been recommended by comedy writer Harry Crane , whom he knew from his days as a stand up comedian in New York.
When he responded it was not worth the train trip to New York, the offer was extended to four weeks. Gleason returned to New York for the show.
Renamed The Jackie Gleason Show , the program became the country's second-highest-rated television show during the —55 season. Following the dance performance, he would do an opening monologue.
Then, accompanied by "a little travelin' music" " That's a Plenty ", a Dixieland classic from , he would shuffle toward the wings, clapping his hands and shouting, "And awaaay we go!
Ray Bloch was Gleason's first music director, followed by Sammy Spear , who stayed with Gleason through the s; Gleason often kidded both men during his opening monologues.
He continued developing comic characters, including. In a interview, Gleason related some of his characters to his youth in Brooklyn. The Mr. The character of The Poor Soul was drawn from an assistant manager of an outdoor theater he frequented.
Gleason disliked rehearsing. With a photographic memory [24] he read the script once, watched a rehearsal with his co-stars and stand-in, and shot the show later that day.
When he made mistakes, he often blamed the cue cards. Gleason's most popular character by far was blustery bus driver Ralph Kramden. Largely drawn from Gleason's harsh Brooklyn childhood, these sketches became known as The Honeymooners.
The show was based on Ralph's many get-rich-quick schemes, his ambition, antics with his best friend and neighbor, scatterbrained sewer worker Ed Norton, and clashes with sensible wife Alice, who typically pulled Ralph's head down from the clouds.
Gleason developed catchphrases he used on The Honeymooners, such as threats to Alice: "One of these days, Alice, pow, right in the kisser" or "Bang!
To the moon Alice, to the moon! The Honeymooners originated from a sketch Gleason was developing with his show's writers.
He said he had an idea he wanted to enlarge: a skit with a smart, quiet wife and her very vocal husband. He went on to describe that, while the couple had their fights, underneath it all they loved each other.
Titles for the sketch were tossed around until someone came up with The Honeymooners. The Honeymooners first was featured on Cavalcade of Stars on October 5, , with Carney in a guest appearance as a cop Norton did not appear until a few episodes later and character actress Pert Kelton as Alice.
Darker and fiercer than the milder later version with Audrey Meadows as Alice, the sketches proved popular with critics and viewers.
As Kramden, Gleason played a frustrated bus driver with a battleaxe of a wife in harrowingly realistic arguments; when Meadows who was 15 years younger than Kelton took over the role after Kelton was blacklisted , the tone softened considerably.
When Gleason moved to CBS, Kelton was left behind; her name had been published in Red Channels , a book that listed and described reputed communists and communist sympathizers in television and radio, and the network did not want to hire her.
Gleason reluctantly let her leave the cast, with a cover story for the media that she had "heart trouble". At first, he turned down Meadows as Kelton's replacement.
Meadows wrote in her memoir that she slipped back to audition again and frumped herself up to convince Gleason that she could handle the role of a frustrated but loving working-class wife.
Elaine Stritch had played the role as a tall and attractive blonde in the first sketch, but was quickly replaced by Randolph.
Comedy writer Leonard Stern always felt The Honeymooners was more than sketch material and persuaded Gleason to make it into a full hour-long episode.
In Gleason gambled on making it a separate series entirely. These are the "Classic 39" episodes, which finished 19th in the ratings for their only season.
A decade later, he aired the half-hour Honeymooners in syndicated reruns that began to build a loyal and growing audience, making the show a television icon.
Gleason went back to the live format for —7 and short and long versions, including hour-long musicals. Audrey Meadows reappeared for one black-and-white remake of the '50s sketch, "The Adoption", telecast January 8, The Jackie Gleason Show ended in June In , Jackie discussed the possibility of bringing back The Honeymooners in new episodes.
Throughout the s and s Gleason enjoyed a prominent secondary music career, producing a series of best-selling " mood music " albums with jazz overtones for Capitol Records.
Gleason believed there was a ready market for romantic instrumentals. His goal was to make "musical wallpaper that should never be intrusive, but conducive".
Gleason reasoned, "If Gable needs music, a guy in Brooklyn must be desperate! Gleason's first album, Music for Lovers Only , still holds the record for the longest stay on the Billboard Top Ten Charts weeks , and his first 10 albums sold over a million copies each.
Gleason could not read or write music; he was said to have conceived melodies in his head and described them vocally to assistants who transcribed them into musical notes.
Biographer William A. Henry III wrote in his book, The Great One: The Life and Legend of Jackie Gleason , that beyond the possible conceptualizing of many of the song melodies, Gleason had no direct involvement such as conducting in making the recordings.
Red Nichols , a jazz great who had fallen on hard times and led one of the group's recordings, was not paid as session-leader.
Cornetist and trumpeter Bobby Hackett soloed on several of Gleason's albums and was leader for seven of them.
Asked late in life by musician—journalist Harry Currie in Toronto what Gleason really did at the recording sessions, Hackett replied, "He brought the checks".
Jackie knows a lot more about music than people give him credit for. I have seen him conduct a piece orchestra and detect one discordant note in the brass section.
He would immediately stop the music and locate the wrong note. It always amazed the professional musicians how a guy who technically did not know one note from another could do that.
And he was never wrong. The composer and arranger George Williams has been cited in various biographies as having served as ghostwriter for the majority of arrangements heard on many of Gleason's albums of the s and s.
In Gleason revived his original variety hour including The Honeymooners , winning a Peabody Award. It took Gleason two years to design the house; it was completed in His next foray into television was the game show You're in the Picture , which was cancelled after a disastrously received premiere episode, but was followed the next week by a broadcast of Gleason's [38] humorous half-hour apology, which was much better appreciated.
In , Gleason resurrected his variety show with more splashiness and a new hook: a fictitious general-interest magazine called The American Scene Magazine , through which Gleason trotted out his old characters in new scenarios; including two new Honeymooners sketches.
He also added another catchphrase to the American vernacular, first uttered in the film Papa's Delicate Condition : "How sweet it is! Each show began with Gleason delivering a monologue and commenting on the attention-getting outfits of band leader Sammy Spear.
Then the "magazine" features would be trotted out, from Hollywood gossip reported by comedian Barbara Heller to news flashes played for laughs with a stock company of second bananas, chorus girls and dwarfs.
Comedian Alice Ghostley occasionally appeared as a downtrodden tenement resident, sitting on her front step and listening to boorish boyfriend Gleason for several minutes.
After the boyfriend took his leave, the smitten Ghostley would exclaim, "I'm the luckiest girl in the world! Helen Curtis played alongside him as a singer and actress, delighting audiences with her 'Madame Plumpadore' sketches with 'Reginald Van Gleason.
The final sketch was always set in Joe the Bartender's saloon, with Joe singing "My Gal Sal" and greeting his regular customer, the unseen Mr.
Dennehy the TV audience, as Gleason spoke to the camera in this section. During the sketch, Joe would tell Dennehy about an article he had read in the fictitious American Scene magazine, holding a copy across the bar.
It had two covers: one featured the New York skyline and the other palm trees after the show moved to Florida. Joe would bring out Frank Fontaine as Crazy Guggenheim, who would regale Joe with the latest adventures of his neighborhood pals and sometimes show Joe his current Top Cat comic book.
Joe usually asked Crazy to sing—almost always a sentimental ballad in his fine, lilting baritone.
His closing line became, almost invariably, "As always, the Miami Beach audience is the greatest audience in the world! Gleason kicked off the — season with new, color episodes of The Honeymooners.
The sketches were remakes of the world-tour episodes, in which Kramden and Norton win a slogan contest and take their wives to international destinations.
Each of the nine episodes was a full-scale musical comedy, with Gleason and company performing original songs by Lyn Duddy and Jerry Bresler. Occasionally Gleason would devote the show to musicals with a single theme, such as college comedy or political satire, with the stars abandoning their Honeymooners roles for different character roles.
This was the show's format until its cancellation in The exception was the — season, which had no hour-long Honeymooners episodes; that season, The Honeymooners was presented only in short sketches.
The musicals pushed Gleason back into the top five in ratings, but audiences soon began to decline.
By its final season, Gleason's show was no longer in the top In the last original Honeymooners episode aired on CBS "Operation Protest" on February 28, , Ralph encounters the youth-protest movement of the late s, a sign of changing times in both television and society.
The network had cancelled a mainstay variety show hosted by Red Skelton and would cancel The Ed Sullivan Show in because they had become too expensive to produce and attracted, in the executives' opinion, too old an audience.
