Although I never went to the Adelphi to see the Honeymooners as I was a toddler, I did go to the CBS studios before they moved to Miami to watch Gleason's later show "The American Scene Magazine" and Joe the Bartender in the audience. If you remember there was always a choreography dance at the beginning by Sammy Spear. Well he was such a perfectionist that we had to sit through about 10 retakes of the dance for about an hour before the rest of the show! |

I did a TV background/extra job where production built a whole phony LIRR Station alongside Metro North tracks upstate. All the signs and maps were for LIRR. |

If I remember the episode correctly they took a cab to ENY where they got the LIRR to Jamaica and changed for a train to Penn. However Norton got the times wrong as there was no Chinese Restaurants anywhere near ENY or Jamaica. |

They were at ENY, 1-seat ride on the A to NYP. But the writers probably didn't know shit about transit (much like their modern counterparts) 🙄 |

It would probably be quicker if they took the BMT to Essex, then switched to the D train to 34th Street. Skip the trip through downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan. |

The quickest way would be to borrow Freddy Muller's car like they did for the safety award, but this time they shouldn't have an accident with Judge Hurdle. |
