-PUBLIC DOMAIN- Jackie Gleason and Art Carney team up in a genre you probably have never seen them in... a drama! Jerry Giles (Gleason) is a popular comedian with his own show performed live in Los Angeles. Bill Berkson (Carney) is a writer for Manhattan Magazine, sent to do a story about Jerry. Bill begins spending time with Jerry, and some of his acquaintances. Both on and off screen. Bill meets up with Peggy (Rita Morely), an old flame who left him to look for fame and fortune in Hollywood. Peggy does not like Jerry, and Bill soon finds out why. Of course, Jerry isn't happy unless everyone likes him. So he uses his charm and star status to win over the hearts of those who dislike him, and give them the opportunities they so desperately desire. As the story progresses, Jerry gets on Bill's bad side and vice versa. All the while, Jerry's sister Belle (Marian Seldes) tries to keep Jerry honest, in an attempt to save him from future disappointment and hurt. Gleason and Carney's acting is spot on. The story is rather simple, but the main character is very complex, making this quite an interesting show. Studio One was a long time dramatic anthology series that first premiered on radio. It was sponsored by Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Cast: Jerry Giles - Jackie Gleason Bill Berkson - Art Carney Flo Stevens - Sally Gracie Peggy Trent - Rita Morley Belle Giles - Marian Seldes Tom (Fiance) - Carl Frank Cosmo? - Mischa Auer
