Dien,

Those Honeymooner episodes were known as "The Classic 39" since 39 episodes were made during the 1955-56 season. They were the best of the best.

Not sure if anyone here remembers, but in one episode Alice is given a really cute puppy. She keeps Ralph from being aware of this right away, so she has some time to work on him to agree to keep it. Long story short, she keeps dog food in the old refrigerator they have. It gets noticed by Norton while he raids it one night, takes it out, puts some on a cracker and ENJOYS it.

Ralph comes home and notices him eating this. He tries some and thinks it's the best home made appetizer he ever had. To get financial backing to market this new creation, he decides to take it to his Boss, who is known for helping finance creative ideas. The Boss LOVES it and decides to share it with three other management fellas just to get their input. Two of them love it and the other, who raises dogs, just happens to recognize the smell. Once it is confirmed that it is in fact dog food, Ralph faints on the floor in embarrassment. He goes home, finds the dog and takes it to the SPCA to get rid of it before Alice comes home, despite Norton's objection.

At the pound he has second thoughts and ends up bringing home the puppy plus two other dogs that were due to be destroyed.

It never worked out for Ralph, but I always admired his determination. With the tools and possibilities all of us have today, Ralph Kramden just may have become an entrepreneur success story. Loved the show.
