Even those with a minimal interest in Abbott & Costello will find this great viewing. It is so much more than routines. This is live TV, where so much can, and does, go wrong. But watching the skill these two had, even if they can only laugh, is worth the price alone. This is a must have for people who love comedies and Abbott and Costello. Some of my favorite on this video is:
* ...where Costello is trying to sing "A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody" with Abbott telling the guys in the background to raise or lower the curtains. Instead, Costello, thinks Abbott is trying to coach him how to sing.
* ...when Costello tries to get Abbott to join the Round-Up Club, except that the joke is when Abbott is supposed to say "Give it to me", Costello spits out milk onto him. The thing is, Abbott knows what's going on and he himself gets some milk...
* ...when Abbott is trying to explain to Costello that, "Who is on first base, What's on second base, and I Don't Know is on third base."
* ...when Costello proves by multiplication, division, and addition that 7 times 13 is 23. Yes, it's true, you'll have to watch it to belive it!
And there's so much more that can't be missed!!
