After the 1954-1955 season (one hour live broadcasts), Jackie Gleason produced a series of 39 filmed half-hour episodes of "The Honeymooners" which was syndicated (1955-1956). For the following 1956-1957 season, the Jackie Gleason Show returned to a live one-hour variety format with a Honeymooners sketch included in many of its broadcasts. After this season, The Honeymooners sketches would not be revived until the 1966-1967 season of The Jackie Gleason Show. 

In the fall of 1958 Jackie Gleason returned to a live half-hour series scheduled on Fridays. That effort, which also featured Buddy Hackett, was cancelled after only three months on the air. 

In the fall of 1962 Gleason was back to a Saturday Night slot, which he occupied for another eight seasons. From 1962 to 1966 it was called JACKIE GLEASON AND HIS AMERICAN SCENE MAGAZINE, and featured topical comedy sketches as well as musical numbers. One of Gleson's characters, Joe the Bartender, appeared regularly opposite regular Frank Fontaine, who as Crazy Guggenham traded stories with Joe and then would change character all together singing a song, after which Joe the Bartender would sing his closing signature song. Sue Ane Langdon was also featured regularly.
