Jackie Gleason

Jackie Gleason news, related photos and videos, and reviews of Jackie Gleason performances. According to Wikipedia: Herbert John "Jackie" Gleason, an American comedian and actor, was one of the most popular and respected stars of television's coming-of-age years. Though Gleason earned tandem respect for his periodic dramatic work in film and television, his major legacy has been his brash visual and verbal comedy–especially as delivered in The Honeymooners, which began as a segment of his popular variety show but took on a life of its own beginning a decade after he tried it as a separate half-hour television series.
