    As a kid in NYC we would watch the Abbott & Costello movies on Sunday morning, and during the week we had their 1/2 hour TV show. May I recommend their 2nd film "Buck Privates" not for review but just to enjoy, It was one if not their best movie, in my opinion...

    These fellows started their careers on stage first, moving on to radio in the 1930's and 40's. They began their movie appearances in 1940 and T.V. in the 50's. This particular routine was rated the top rated comedy routine ever and dates back to about 1937-38 when they performed on stage. They continued to perform until 1957.

    One of the greatest routines of all time, as long as Baseball is around it is timeless. They were my Dad's favorite comedians and I saw this as long as I remember, if I said I saw this a million times it would only be a slight exaggeration, HAHA. Glad to see it still being enjoyed, love the reaction.

    A classic fast-paced comedy of miscommunication! The only member of the team that wasn't named was the right-fielder. Left Field was Why, Center Field was Because, and the Shortstop was I Don't Give a Darn!

    What's amazing is that they did this skit from memory

      They did the skit for twenty years, never exactly the same.

      At this point they had only performed it about a thousand times.

    Really fine reaction. It was fun watching it with you. By the way, Abbott and Costello were the highest paid act during World War II era.

    The guy with the bat had a son who drowned in a swimming pool...I learned how to swim, in part, thanks to a program he set up in memory of his son

    great reaction video! love these comedy skits from Abbott and Costello...their timing is really sharp, precise, and brilliant at the same time which makes watching it really believable, convincing, and enjoyable...it's just as entertaining the 100th time as it is the first time...a timeless classic! 💯💥✌😂😄

    {BTW Even though this skit was recorded, it aired Live, no delay. The technology did not exist for prerecorded broadcasts yet.}
    "Who's on First, What's on Second, I Don't Know is on Third." And don't forget "Why is Left Field, the Pitcher is Tomorrow, the catcher is today and the shortstop is I Don't Care - NATURALLY"
    CLASSIC - I LOVE hearing this again. Thank you!!!

    @AndICanTalk2 Рік тому +3

    As was stated several other times these 2 were some of the greatest to ever do comedy. At this point they had done this skit hundreds of times, if not thousands, and it is set up in such a way that if there is a small error it can be worked into the routine. So glad you both enjoyed it.

    Another great abbot and Costello bit is susquehanna hat company. Yey another is niagara falls. Their bits are almost entirely shot in one take, because those bits are from their time in vaudeville (stage performances), where you HAD to get it right, every time. Their tv show was basically the end of their careers together, so they had decades of rehearsals beforehand. If you can, the show was a gem of talent, and worth watching as many episodes as you can find.

    i forgot i had auto caption on and at 0:46 it says "abort and custard", and "abortion costello" and i just stated laughing so hard that i had to pause the vid. i clearly hear abott and costello, but the auto caption ai is stupid

    This is a great episode. I enjoy listening to the full episode which runs for roughly 29 minutes. This episode “Who’s on First” also stars Marilyn Maxwell and Skinnay Ennis. Other episodes I enjoy are ‘Nylon Stockings’ ‘Thanksgiving Day’ and ‘Lion Hunting’.

  • @taun856
    @taun856 Рік тому +11

    Your reaction to this is awesome! Keep up the great videos. Many people consider this the greatest comedy routine of all time. Another skit of theirs you might enjoy is "Loafing" - a similar play on words skits.

    There are several version of this routine on UA-cam. I think this is the best one.

  • @jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344

    2:36 Boobie Barber is an inside joke between Abbott and Costello. Barber wasn't a Baseball player; he was their friend who they hired to be on set when the made the Universal movies. Barbers' role was to keep the atmosphere on the set funny, by playing practical jokes et al.

  • @chipurBillWhite

  • @jackasswhiskyandpintobeans9344

    Universal released "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein," 1948 with a very informative commentary track by (I think) Greg Mank. It's a very good movie and very good commentary track. If you listen, you'll learn about Boobie Barber and the ups and downs of this comedy duo.

    I just watched your video with Fluffy. You both are so delightful and I love your sense of humour. I had to subscribe and am now binge watching your videos. I have seen some of these videos many times but your reactions to them makes me laugh harder. Thanks :)

    If I've got the facts right, Abbot and Costello had already been performing this sketch for 10 years before they filmed this show. This displays how well they knew the bit, and how well they had polished it.

    • @JB-yb4wn
      @JB-yb4wn 3 місяці тому

      15 years, the sketch came out in 1937, this was recorded in 1953. Who would have thought that this recording would still be around some 70 years later and is still hilarious?

    You two should check out red Skelton. He'll knock your socks off. Everything he does is incredible. The ones I recommend.
    Anything freddy the freeloader.
    The honeymooners parody featuring Peter Lorre and Vampira.
    His UN silent performance.
    His glass jaw boxer skit.

    Abbott and Costello were the American Laurel and Hardy. Abbott and Costello were bigger in North America, Laurel and Hardy are more well-known in Britain

      L&H were a bit more popular than A&C but in earlier times, as they made over 100 shorts and 27 features Working for Hal Roach...

  • @nedludd7622
    @nedludd7622 Рік тому

    It is funny how accents influenced by British English education(from Ireland to New Zealand)cannot pronounce "Abbott". It is "AB-bet(or but)". Another skit you might like is from Johnny Carson called "The Copper Clapper Caper".

    Not even 1 minute in, and I'm laughing at how the dear lady pronounces Abbott!
    No offence intended, if their first language was my second language, they'd probably laugh at my pronunciations too!
    It's ABBott, not abbOTT.

    There are 2 rules you must follow when watching this skit. First, SHUT UP! Do not talk during the skit or you will miss the dialog. Also, DO NOT PAUSE the video for ANY reason.
