RE: TRUMP!!!! BLABBERMOUTH!!!
Being a fan of Jackie Gleason you may already know of this but starred in a film called Gigot that revealed his acting skill. A truly underrated talent. If you like Gleason and haven’t seen it try and find a copy.
Thanks for the recommendation, I haven't actually seen that but it looks really good, I will check it out :-D
What do you reckon about the flintstones/honeymooners link? supposedly Jackie was pretty angry about the whole thing and felt he had been ripped off, he really should have been paid for that and credited on the flintstones too :-)
Sheesh, I can’t imagine a tough old school man like Gleason wanting royalties off a cartoon, but who knows. I saw the similarity between the two as a kid, at the age where you could still watch kid stuff and adult comedy. It was an obvious take-off.
I guess in a weird way it can kind of help because I actually originally found the honeymooners because someone told me it was the original flintstones, probably more people would find it if they knew that :-)
