For the avid Honeymooners fan, this book has it all. Donna McCrohan and her research staff have left no stone unturned to find every fact from the original 39 episodes. Photos, stories, plot synopses, terminology, character names and references abound in this fantastic book. If you really love the Honeymooners, you've got to own this book. You'll find yourself unable to put it down. Getting through a chapter won't be easy when you come across a reference to one of the shows' characters or memorable lines, and finding yourself going to the glossary of terms to look up it's meaning. Almost every conceivable item is listed and defined.

Thank you, Donna for taking me on an unforgettable "HONEYMOON" with one of television's greatest comedy shows of all time.

Great book for Honeymooners fans of all ages. This book focuses on the 'Classic 39' episodes of the show due to it's being published before the 'Lost Episodes' were found. Also includes a lot of information on the cast and the events leading to the show's success. Overall, it is highly informative and very entertaining. The follow-up book by the same author and R.A.L.P.H. co-founder Peter Crescenti titled 'The Honeymooners Lost Episodes' contains all the newfound stuff on the lost episodes

Great book for Honeymooners fans of all ages. Ever wonder which of the 'Lost Episodes' you haven't seen? Well this book pretty much covers most of them with summaries, dates, length, and bloopers. There are a few episodes that were salvaged after the printing of this book though. Includes a great many pictures on and off screen. Great follow-up to Donna McCrohan's 'The Honeymooners Companion

This is the best of the Get Smart information books. In depth and great, Mrs. McCrohan gives a backstage peek at one of the best, funniest, and much overlooked parody comedies ever!

Excellent reading for any All in The Family fan. When this show first came out I was too young to remember but love to watch the reruns over and over.

I thought while reading this book how thoroughly done it was. I thought about how much I loved All in the Family, how connected I felt to each character, how I identified with Mike, Gloria, Edith and even Archie. How real it was to me. When a piece of literature, brings back all of those feelings and memories, it is something to remember. Pictures, stories, Archie-isms and an episode guide are just a few things that make up this book. I recommend it to all Archie Bunker fans and haters alike. This book is one of the best documentations of characters you love to hate, that I have ever come across.

First there was Duffy's Tavern, then the Honeymooners, (Til Death Do Us Part in the UK) and before Moe's Tavern was ALL IN THE FAMILY. The enormous impact this show had on American society with its controversial subject content and very un-Father Knows Best language and worldview is unquestionable. It was the show that could anger and shock you and drive you to tears one moment, and in the blink of an eye, have you rolling on the floor in laughter. It was one of the first shows to deal with Women's Issues, Bigotry - - no topic was too controversial. This book will help you appreciate it... and yes, it has an episode guide, the trivia and all that stuff too. It was the show that made us look at ourselves and sparked passionate arguements. This is a fascinating, yet incredibly readable history of the show, balancing between sociological analysis and the stuff that any true fan or addict would want to know. Thumbs up for TV fans, and people like me who grew up on it and were deeply effected by the episodes.

Self serving autobiography. Good insight as to what made up Bob Smith before and after Howdy Doody. Portrays a good, kind and religous person.

Details about the Howdy Doody show are skimpy and sometimes misleading. When finished reading, you know you wanted more.

Of the three books available on Howdy, this is a good (yet distant) third.
