Hello,
Leona Macri was in this show also. This was the second time she was ona King Of Kensingtontv show. In the ending show she played the woman (who was the Italian wife) of the couple who buy fromthe King of Kensington. This show was called Movin' On (Mar 13, 1980). Gladys and Jack decide to retire and move to Florida. An Italian couple (wife played by Leona Macri ) buy the store. Gwen agrees to marry Larry.The other show of the King of Kensington that Leona Macri was in was the show called "War and Peace (Feb 7, 1980) The Lubanianswere planning on using the Centre as their pavilion for Metro Mosaic and Larry gets caught in the middle when two opposed factions claim the sole right of representation. GS: Jan Muszynski (Josef), Alberta Watson (Mitzi). Leona Macri was one of the Lubanians in this show. You can see her in the background dancing around. This was also a very funny show of the King of Kensington. This show was a very well known tv show in Canada. It was on a major television channel and most everybody in the 70's and 80's in Canada saw or at least knew of the King of Kensington tv show. It lasted very many years and was great entertainment.

Larry King lives with his mother & they run a variety store back in the 70's. Very good, clean comedy. Mike Meyers made his TV Show debut on this show.

Great show! SUNTV is playing the reruns. They forgot in the cast section to mention that Mike Meyers had a part in one of the episodes. It was his very first TV show appearance. It is too bad they can't do a reunion show for this series, I am sure it would be great.
