Alternate versions for
"The Honeymooners" (1955) More at IMDbPro »

  • Besides the modification to the opening title sequence when prepared for syndication, original announcer Jack Lescoulie's voice was replaced with that of Gaylord Avery, a longtime CBS staff announcer.

  • The original network version used a different announcer and the opening title/credits sequence ended with a plug for the show's sponsor, Buick. For its now familiar syndicated version, the plug for Buick was replaced with a second shot of fireworks.

  • The original ending had Gleason in front of a curtain doing a commercial for the show's sponsor, Buick. The ending credit roll would begin with "Your Buick dealer as brought you..." and included a credit for Buick spokesman Jack Lescoulie. The credits appeared larger on screen (than in the more familiar 16mm television syndication prints) and were run over a line caricature of Gleason in his "away we go" pose.
