'Mooners Monday: Opportunity Knocks But

You know, this is a funny episode that need not hang its head, but for some reason I just can't think of much to say about it. It offers some great Honeymooners staples: Ralph getting jealous of Norton over some mix-up, Ralph's shameless courting of his boss' affection, and billiards! Yet I don't see a need to do much other than sit back and enjoy it.

The Official Honeymooners Treasury doesn't add much to the conversation, giving this episode a measly 3 pages including the "title page" that sets up each episode chapter with the name, writers, airdate, and a still frame. That leaves just 2 pages of trivia and none of the tidbits/interview excerpts that make the book such a regular riot.

So maybe there isn't a ton that stands out to us, but I'd love to hear from others about memorable moments. Opportunity does feature maybe my favorite "Ralph throws out Ed" of all time. Ralph gets progressively angry as Ed talks about being Ralph's boss at the Gotham Bus Company.

Finally, Ralph erupts and gives the wordless heave-ho, made even funnier by Ed's wordless confirmation that he is indeed being kicked off the premises.
