I love these two. Timeless, truly timeless. I still watch the VHS tapes of the movies these two made. Some of my top favorites are Hold That Ghost, Abbott and Costello Meet The Mummy, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, and Abbott and Costello Meet The Invisible Man. I’ll always find them hilarious and I’ll always watch them. 💙☺️
First time I ever seen Abbott and Costello in color! They were absolute chemistry together perfect! There will never be another Duo like that again! God Rest their souls
I saw this in their movie when I was 10 years old and after that watched every single movie they have because they were shown on Sundays from 11:30 to 1 PM. I absolutely love Abbott and Costello.
I have recently bought all of Abbott and Costello movies on DVD from 1977 to 2018 I've only seen 4 of their movies now with over 30 of their movies on DVD now I see why they are a scream I'm proud to own their entire collection they are comedic Masters Bill Montero jr Newark Ca
The problem was that this was being broadcast, so the vulgarity wasn’t allowed. It looks like Lou was thinking more of the live audience than those listening on radio, and Bud is taken completely aback (“what did you say???”) but regains his bearings and gets back on script.
The best performance they did was a live show - I think for radio - with a band behind them, similar to this one but I think years earlier. Costello was almost crying out of frustration and it was hilarious. At the end even Abbott and Costello themselves were laughing. I wish I could find that video! I saw it only once, about 50 years ago, but never forgot it. They were wearing regular street clothes, not the baseball uniforms. It was not part of a TV show or a movie. The audience was live and you could hear them reacting every step of the way.
As long as there is laughter in the human species, there will always be a spot for Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. And as long as baseball is played, this skit will always be a great part of the American pastime.
They had this routine down so well that they could do it in any order. I've watched several versions of this and each one seems a little different, but they always have it worked out just right and never miss a beat.
That routine will just NEVER GET OLD ,LOL !! Abbott and Costello were THE BEST at those types of QUICK BANTER routines - their timing was ALWAYS IMPECCABLE !!
Thank you very much for uploading this clip of Abbott and Costello. It bought back a lot of fond memories with these two guys when I was younger. May 24, 2020 @ 7:55 pm
I had a VHS with a compilation of entertainment from WWII and this version of the sketch was there, but in B/W. This looks well colorized and cleaned up.
Ageless comedy. The comedy routine and the dynamics of it are so perfect that even when updated versions of have been presented, such as rock bands instead of baseball players by the SCTV Comedy Troupe or political leaders instead of baseball players by Johnny Carson and Fred Holliday on the Tonight Show, it's still funny (as long as you have some knowledge of the rock bands and political leaders involved).
In the 1980’s, we took our two sons to Cooperstown. First thing we saw was a statue of Babe Ruth. First thing we heard was this routine played in a loop.
Apparently, in 2007 the Los Angeles Dodgers had an infielder named Chin-Lung Hu and after Hu singled in a game, Dodgers announcer Vin Scully was finally able to recite the immortal line in an actual baseball game "And Hu's on first."
Not so much surprised that he swore - the I Don't Give A Damn ending was regularly used when playing for the troops (as they were here) - but that for the moment he forgot they were being broadcast. He's genuinely worried that this could get them blacklisted, but pulls it all together without drawing attention to it. (A cardinal rule in performing is not to call attention to your mistakes as they are rarely noticed, but since this was not only broadcast but filmed it got preserved for posterity.)
Mr. Who is on first. Mr. What is on second. Mr. I don't know is on third. Mr. Why is the centerfielder. Mr. Today is the catcher. Mr. I don't give a damn is the short stop.
They either left out some of the routine, or some of it was edited out of this video. They never mention that Tomorrow was pitching until Abbott told Costello that Today was catching. And the "Who gets it?" "Naturally" part was also left out. Also, "Sometimes his wife comes down to collect it" "Who's wife?" "Yes" was left out.
That's the wonder of the routine; it's so modular. You can take out or insert new gags based on how much time you have. "The Naughty Nineties" has the longest version I know of.
It also didn't state the position played by "Because". Perhaps there was a time constant, or it was edited to make the colorization easier -IF this was not originally in color. It might also be, that over the years, they added little bits to the routine, so that earlier on, some of the details did not exist yet.
@@jacobjinglehymer8789 Normally since Bud is "asking" who's on first, Lou should say "I don't know!... Third base!" but they ran through it in a different order.
they sometimes speed through the routine just to get it over with because just like performers today they got tired of constantly being asked to perform the same routine over and over again
"Who's on First" (Lou Costello is considering becoming a ballplayer. Bud Abbott wants to make sure he knows what he's getting into.) Abbott: Strange as it may seem, they give ball players nowadays very peculiar names. Costello: Funny names? Abbott: Nicknames, nicknames. Now, on the St. Louis team we have Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know is on third-- Costello: That's what I want to find out. I want you to tell me the names of the fellows on the St. Louis team. Abbott: I'm telling you. Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know is on third-- Costello: You know the fellows' names? Abbott: Yes. Costello: Well, then who's playing first? Abbott: Yes. Costello: I mean the fellow's name on first base. Abbott: Who. Costello: The fellow playin' first base. Abbott: Who. Costello: The guy on first base. Abbott: Who is on first. Costello: Well, what are you askin' me for? Abbott: I'm not asking you--I'm telling you. Who is on first. Costello: I'm asking you--who's on first? Abbott: That's the man's name. Costello: That's who's name? Abbott: Yes. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Costello: When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money? Abbott: Every dollar of it. And why not, the man's entitled to it. Costello: Who is? Abbott: Yes. Costello: So who gets it? Abbott: Why shouldn't he? Sometimes his wife comes down and collects it. Costello: Who's wife? Abbott: Yes. After all, the man earns it. Costello: Who does? Abbott: Absolutely. Costello: Well, all I'm trying to find out is what's the guy's name on first base? Abbott: Oh, no, no. What is on second base. Costello: I'm not asking you who's on second. Abbott: Who's on first! ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Costello: St. Louis has a good outfield? Abbott: Oh, absolutely. Costello: The left fielder's name? Abbott: Why. Costello: I don't know, I just thought I'd ask. Abbott: Well, I just thought I'd tell you. Costello: Then tell me who's playing left field? Abbott: Who's playing first. Costello: Stay out of the infield! The left fielder's name? Abbott: Why. Costello: Because. Abbott: Oh, he's center field. Costello: Wait a minute. You got a pitcher on this team? Abbott: Wouldn't this be a fine team w i t h o u t a pitcher? Costello: Tell me the pitcher's name. Abbott: Tomorrow. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Costello: Now, when the guy at bat bunts the ball--me being a good catcher--I want to throw the guy out at first base, so I pick up the ball and throw it to who? Abbott: Now, that's he first thing you've said right. Costello: I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! Abbott: Don't get excited. Take it easy. Costello: I throw the ball to first base, whoever it is grabs the ball, so the guy runs to second. Who picks up the ball and throws it to what. What throws it to I don't know. I don't know throws it back to tomorrow--a triple play. Abbott: Yeah, it could be. Costello: Another guy gets up and it's a long ball to center. Abbott: Because. Costello: Why? I don't know. And I don't care. Abbott: What was that? Costello: I said, I DON'T CARE! Abbott: Oh, that's our shortstop!
Every single time I see this sketch of Abbott and Costello I begin to laugh. Here is Abbott's baseball team: Who is on first base. What is on second base. I don't know is on third base. Why is the outfielder. Today is the catcher. Tomorrow is the pitcher and I don't give a damn is the short stop. Please stay indoors during the quarentine as much as possible. Please post only positive comments over here. May these two Rest In Peace forever. We will miss you a lot. May 24, 2020 @ 7:50 pm

where did you get the set,i really want to get one if I could.
I love this never gets old
This is very old
First time I heard Lou Costello say "I don't give a damn". That's usually "I don't give a darn." Because of the censorship.
Its actually a number of things based on when and where they are doing the sketch.
they also used "I don't care". I don't give a damn is the best ending. Damn, I mean darn censors.
It depended on their audience - here its servicemen so no holds are barred!
It's nice that we have this version with the I don't give a damn line. I think it's the only one available. Too bad they edited a lot out of this.
The problem was that this was being broadcast, so the vulgarity wasn’t allowed. It looks like Lou was thinking more of the live audience than those listening on radio, and Bud is taken completely aback (“what did you say???”) but regains his bearings and gets back on script.
The best routine EVER. BUT is great because of the actors, too.
one of the best comedy teams ever.....
What an amazing routine !! I never get tired of hearing it..
A classic comedy routine that has stood the test of time. Still funny!
That was so funny and incredible timing, I used to watch Abbot and Costello as a kid on reruns in the evening 70s... Great to find this clip so funny
Just a brilliant piece of comedy that will never be duplicated.
This is a classic and very funny. Still to this day one of the best ever
The guys were so funny together.
Great skit.
“Who’s on first, what’s on second, I don’t know is on third.” 😂😂😂
This is beautiful! Bud & Lou would be so happy to know they still making us smile & laugh so many years later 😊

This act is so awesome.....perfected by one of the best acts in the game then.
The greatest routine of all time!
such brilliant timing...you don't see that very often these days..LIVE...
SNL? not that brilliant, but LIVE nonetheless.

I love this comedy will never age no matter how much time passes

Never the same. On purpose to keep the timing right.
Wow. This was restored so beautifully. Whoever did that needs an Oscar or golden globe or whatever. ;)
OMG it never gets old. Classic and contemporary.
This is the best form of comedy that you can get with them.
This routine is timeless. It’s simply perfect. Thank you for uploading this color version.

"Who's on First"
(Lou Costello is considering becoming a ballplayer. Bud Abbott wants to make sure he knows what he's getting into.)
Abbott: Strange as it may seem, they give ball players nowadays very peculiar names.
Costello: Funny names?
Abbott: Nicknames, nicknames. Now, on the St. Louis team we have Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know is on third--
Costello: That's what I want to find out. I want you to tell me the names of the fellows on the St. Louis team.
Abbott: I'm telling you. Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know is on third--
Costello: You know the fellows' names?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: Well, then who's playing first?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: I mean the fellow's name on first base.
Abbott: Who.
Costello: The fellow playin' first base.
Abbott: Who.
Costello: The guy on first base.
Abbott: Who is on first.
Costello: Well, what are you askin' me for?
Abbott: I'm not asking you--I'm telling you. Who is on first.
Costello: I'm asking you--who's on first?
Abbott: That's the man's name.
Costello: That's who's name?
Abbott: Yes.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Costello: When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money?
Abbott: Every dollar of it. And why not, the man's entitled to it.
Costello: Who is?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: So who gets it?
Abbott: Why shouldn't he? Sometimes his wife comes down and collects it.
Costello: Who's wife?
Abbott: Yes. After all, the man earns it.
Costello: Who does?
Abbott: Absolutely.
Costello: Well, all I'm trying to find out is what's the guy's name on first base?
Abbott: Oh, no, no. What is on second base.
Costello: I'm not asking you who's on second.
Abbott: Who's on first!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Costello: St. Louis has a good outfield?
Abbott: Oh, absolutely.
Costello: The left fielder's name?
Abbott: Why.
Costello: I don't know, I just thought I'd ask.
Abbott: Well, I just thought I'd tell you.
Costello: Then tell me who's playing left field?
Abbott: Who's playing first.
Costello: Stay out of the infield! The left fielder's name?
Abbott: Why.
Costello: Because.
Abbott: Oh, he's center field.
Costello: Wait a minute. You got a pitcher on this team?
Abbott: Wouldn't this be a fine team w i t h o u t a pitcher?
Costello: Tell me the pitcher's name.
Abbott: Tomorrow.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Costello: Now, when the guy at bat bunts the ball--me being a good catcher--I want to throw the guy out at first base, so I pick up the ball and throw it to who?
Abbott: Now, that's he first thing you've said right.
Costello: I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!
Abbott: Don't get excited. Take it easy.
Costello: I throw the ball to first base, whoever it is grabs the ball, so the guy runs to second. Who picks up the ball and throws it to what. What throws it to I don't know. I don't know throws it back to tomorrow--a triple play.
Abbott: Yeah, it could be.
Costello: Another guy gets up and it's a long ball to center.
Abbott: Because.
Costello: Why? I don't know. And I don't care.
Abbott: What was that?
Costello: I said, I DON'T CARE!
Abbott: Oh, that's our shortstop!
Nice copy and paste
Why waste your time googling the dialogue?
greenrobot5 for someone to read along maybe. Why does it matter?
Golden Champ He can’t hear you,he’s still out in left field.
For those who can’t hear
who's playing second and who's playin third? no hooz is playin first, WHY ARE YOU ASKIN ME!?
It's so weird seeing them in Technicolor. I've always seen their "Who's on First?" skit in black and white. What a difference! My dad loves this skit!
NEVER GETS OLD!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They were the best laugh every time
I saw it twice in 10 min. and i'm still laughing.
one of my long ago fav :)
I remember this from a 33 rpm vinyl when I was probably 4 or 5. It was there before that, but I didn't pay attention then :-)
Lou is extremely funny because he said “I DON’T GIVE A DAMN!”
Awesomeness
Every single time I see this sketch of Abbott and Costello I begin to laugh.
Here is Abbott's baseball team:
Who is on first base. What is on second base. I don't know is on third base. Why is the outfielder. Today is the catcher. Tomorrow is the pitcher and I don't give a damn is the short stop.
Please stay indoors during the quarentine as much as possible.
