The Honeymooners went off the air over 65 years ago, but the series incredibly still has a surviving cast member today.

Jackie Gleason's classic sitcom featured four main stars, all of whom have now passed away except for actress Joyce Randolph. She played "Trixie," the wife of "Ed Norton" (Art Carney).

Born in 1924, Joyce Randolph was actually already in her 30s when The Honeymooners launched as a sitcom in 1955.

She's now 97 years old and, though long retired, has been closely associated with her trademark role ever since her time as "Trixie" ended.

After The Honeymooners concluded in 1956, Randolph made a few more appearances on The Jackie Gleason Show. But she never took on another major role, which she attributed to her fame from The Honeymooners.

In a 1994 interview, Randolph explained, "For years after that role, directors would say: 'No, we can't use her. She's too well known as Trixie.'"

So, she instead acted in musicals and commercials as well as a rare screen role in the little-known 2000 film Everything's Jake.

Now in the 2000s, Randolph has continued to give occasional interviews looking back on her Honeymooners days and the show's enduring fandom.
