Some of you already know about this feature but perhaps there are those who don’t and with that being said let me inform those new to “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” website that for the last few years I’ve sat down and cobbled together a complete rundown of the annual marathon of episodes of the classic comedy series “The Honeymooners”. This marathon is presented to us by the fine folks at PIX11 and they’ve been doing this kind of thing for as long as I can remember. From my checking the past posts, it seems like I’ve been posting about this since the 2019/2020 marathon and I kept it going when the world was better enjoyed from inside the confines of our own dwellings in 2021 for the most part. I did it again for 2022 and now I guess its something of a tradition for the site since we are constantly doing Pop Culture Film and Television posts. Clearly the last few years have knocked the wind out our sails but slowly and surely we are trying to get back to as normal as we can and the familiarity of “The Honeymooners” marathon is a good way to look ahead positively. For sure 2022 as a year was miles better in many instances but the way that we were in “The Before Times” has not yet returned for most of us. Thought I’ve been going to concerts and conventions throughout 2022, I will admit that I approached them differently and wasn’t going to everything that happened and we are fully vaccinated. If you have the space on your DVR you should start programming them now so you are able to switch channels to your favorite network to watch the ball drop before you return to the fun of “The Honeymooners”. I didn’t program this last year but think that I will this time around despite my owning the DVD of what they call “The Classic 39”. As we’ve found in the past marathons, some of the funniest and best of the episodes will be aired so head over to WPIX 11 and spend some time in Brooklyn with Ralph Kramden, Ed Norton, Alice Kramden and Trixie Norton and just relax for awhile. The shows begin at 11PM and run continuously into New Year’s Day with a pause for other programming from 7AM until Noon. Let’s take a look.

For the last couple of years I’ve sat down and cobbled together a complete rundown of the annual marathon of episodes of “The Honeymooners” that is presented to us over on PIX11. In 2020 it was super important to keep people indoors for safety’s sake and now with the terrible surge in cases of this Omicron variant I think that this might be the best course of action for 2021’s New Year’s Eve as well. At the risk of repeating myself I will say that this classic comedy is the perfect way to both close out and open up a hopefully promising New Year of 2022. The continuation of the pandemic has divided a lot of us based on who has received the full vaccine dosage and those who refute its effectiveness and to be honest the fights about this are far too nasty to line out in this humble narrative. The editorial High Command of “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” have taken all three of the shots and we did Pfizer and are happy to have done so. End of soapboxing. If you have the space on your DVR you should start programming them now so you are able to switch channels to the favored network to watch the ball drop before you return to the fun of “The Honeymooners”. I programmed this last year for myself even though I own the DVD of the classic episodes. As in the past marathons, some of the funniest and best of the episodes will be aired so head over to WPIX 11 and spend some time in Brooklyn with Ralph Kramden, Ed Norton, Alice Kramden and Trixie Norton and just relax. The shows begin at 11PM and run continuously into the next day with a brief pause for other programming at 8AM until it picks up again at 11AM. Let’s take a look.

Last year, I took the time to line out the complete rundown of the annual marathon of episodes of “The Honeymooners”. After the year that we all have had I can honestly say that this classic comedy is the perfect way to both close and open up a hopefully promising new year. Based on the pandemic, there are even more of us under lockdown as the year closes up and while there are still specials with tons of autotune, my only real interest is the final countdown to the New Year. As in the past marathons, some of the funniest and best of the episodes will be aired so head over to WPIX 11 and spend some time in Brooklyn with Ralph Kramden, Ed Norton, Alice Kramden and Trixie Norton and just relax. The shows begin at 11PM and run continuously into the next day with a brief pause for area news at 4:30AM before picking back up again at 9AM. Let’s take a look.

11:00PM – The Bensonhurst Bomber
