Mambo Jumbo
A typically manic episode of the iconic '50s TV show The Honeymooners has Jackie Gleason's embattled everyman Ralph Kramden coming home from work to find his wife Alice, along with several other wives of the apartment complex, taking mambo lessons from a suave new neighbor, a professional mambo dancer. Naturally, Kramden goes ballistic, even as Alice tries to reassure him that everybody's doing the mambo. "I don't do it!" Kramden thunders. "[Neighbor Ed] Norton doesn't do it! My GRANDMOTHER never did it!" The post Mambo Jumbo appeared first on .
