We should be grateful that this showed up at all. Best comedy duo of all time.

I don't know why people are complaining about the sound. It was fine considering it's an old kinescope. No issues.

Did anyone think that they could have made a great couple ? But I'm sure that they knew best.

[@marytheresejacksonlutz2533]

Just read Mike Nichols biography. They were an item early on. And for whatever reason it did not last.

[@fifthbusiness1678]

But they were a couple. For a short time, anyways.

Sound quality is bad. Can barely hear it

[@michelez715]

Unwatchable, because of abysmal sound quality.
