The Honeymooners Full Episode in color | S1 E16 My Aching Back

I colorized one of my favorite episodes of The Honeymooners Season 5 Episode 16 "Oh, My Aching Back" from 1956. Video also includes an additional footage of the stars of The Honeymooners appearing as mystery guests on the hit TV show "What's My Line?"

I drive a transit bus like Ralph, and some days you do come home and are exhausted, too tired to even eat. Get to bed early! He's spot on...

[@kewrock]

Bus drivers here in NYC get assaulted, spit on and beaten every day. I could never understand the hostility toward bus drivers. They're totally benign, hold no authority, and are not required to confront non-paying passengers. Yet the crazies target them. Maybe because they are sitting and vulnerable. Hope you're in a more civilized city.

The faces of pain Ralph makes when being hit on his back are hysterical..Comming in second to Ed's bufoonery.....Their talent is timeless.

Watched the Honeymooners for about 40 years. Never saw them in color

[@user-eh7vn9is1z]

Right! Robert, never in color!!!

[@dodgeram250]

This is really nostalgic right here I appreciate this I always wanted to see how it is in color, I saw a one lost episode in colors, it's so good to be part of the Baby Boomers, Generation X, Xennials era and I am a generation x a early seventies baby so just to go back to my childhood when this used to come on WPIX channel 11 after The Odd Couple back in the late 70s early 80s makes you feel real good excellent job once again, I feel like I'm watching one of those old Ted Turner color movies on TBS back in early 80s

[@VicMartino]

I really enjoyed and was very entertained by watching this colorized version of the 1956 comedy classic. And I enjoyed and was entertained by the additional footage added here as well.

The color that they installed in this black and white series reminds me when I was young at Christmas time...my dad would install a color wheel for our Christmas tree and it would constantly change colors...still give an A+ for the addition to the black and white series...

[@gmaqwert]

I would love to see these colorized if they do it right. They did a very good job colorizing a couple of I Love Lucy and Dick Van Dyke Show episodes a few years ago.

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

The thing about the Honeymooners, as opposed to I Love Lucy, is that it doesn't need to be colorized. The Kramden's were so poor, that their apartment was so drab, and dreary. They had nothing of true value, or excitement that would stand out in color. Whereas conversely on I Love Lucy, the Ricardo's were so affluent and café society, that they had a lot of things that would pop in color. Lucy's trademark red hair is enough of a reason alone that the show would've been great in color.

[@chrisfreeman9960]

Thank you for speaking up. I had thought about saying something, but thought I would get shouted down. This show, arriving in television's first decade, about a lower-class family, their lives and surroundings, when most of broadcast television was in black-and-white, and most people had television sets which would only show black-and-white, was the perfect reflection of that moment. It was meant to be funny (who could quarrel with it's status) but it was not meant to be pretty. The show, and it's visual, grabs you from the moment you see it. The great opening score, with the moon with Jackie Gleason's face on it, just screams the 1950's! (And yes, I know the original broadcast version of the show's beginning was slightly different). The essence of the show was in black-and-white. And, no, I don't think it's "terrible" that someone colorized it. I just think the original stands on it's own.

[@billgreen1861]

This video was one of the first that experimented with " added " colors back in the early 70's but, it wasn't perfected until late 90's, early 2000. People were divided on the reason to colorize and they put it off for a while but, now you can't tell which one is original or colorize. They should try it again with this show.

[@robvangessel3766]

In 1952 when I was 5, we got our first TV. It was small but we were so happy with it. The first show I remember watching is the Honeymooners. When I hear the Honeymooner's theme music, I just want to go back to those days watching it. It makes me so sad.

[@LuisaD93]

Awesome! TY 😃

[@robkeysnj]

When the TV stations in Miami went on the air, it must have been amazing for the few people in Key Largo that had a phone, electricity, and a 20-ft TV antenna to watch this. Tavernier had a few households with higher sticks. Islamorada and Marathon reception was ridiculous unless one had a tall tower with a high-gain antenna, and at that point--try for Ft. Myers. In the 70-s The Keys had repeater towers to Key West, and those lasted for many years after cable-TV.

I always wondered why Ralph neglected to inform Alice about the championship match, you know if he told her so,there'd be no problem and she'd let him bowl. But she wouldn't allow Ralph to participate in any victory spreads.

It looks dreadful to me. The show was originally aired in glorious black & white. It should be preserved in its intended format. I feel the same about the "colorized" episodes of I Love Lucy & Bewitched. I wish color enthusiasts were less enthusiastic about using their crayons 🖍

Agreed.
