Editorial Review:

Description:
CONTAINS 4 COMPLETE SHOWS FROM THE CLASSIC TV COMEDY SERIES (1952-53), TRANSFERRED FROM THE ORIGINAL 35MM FILM MASTERS. Featuring Mr. Fields, Mike the Cop, Bacciagalupe, Hillary, Stinky and Bingo the Chimp. The Abbott and Costello TV Show is timeless American humor, as fresh today as it was 40 years ago. All the classic routines which "the boys" performed on film, radio and stage, were captured in 1952-1953 for the new medium of television and delivered at the peak of their powers. The regular cast of characters, including Mr. Fields, Mike the Cop, Stinky, Bacciagalupe and Hillary, had worked with Bud and Lou on film and stage and each contributed memorably. These shows stand today as perhaps the finest surviving representation of the art of burlesque comedy. EPISODES - Television, The Haunted House, The Vacation, South of Dixie.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Radio Comes To Television!
Bud & Lou, though a bit older, can still deliver, with many of their classic routines from radio and film performed on the small screen. In Volume 12 from their television show, we see them perform the classic "Candle Routine", on the show entitled-"The Haunted House"; and it's still funny! Many of the characters from their radio show turn up and I think Joe Besser is funnier with A&C, then when he was with The Three Stooges. You also get to look at the lovely Hillary Brooke; very easy on the ... Read More
