The Best of Abbott & Costello Live Trailers

"He-e-ey Abb-o-o-o-tt!!" screamed Lou. And all America knew the fun was about to begin. For decades, lanky straight man Bud Abbott and tubby spark plug Lou Costello brought the knock about outrageousness of vaudeville to Hollywood... and uncontrolled laughter to millions. Chances are you already know the duo from the widely-syndicated The Abbott & Costello Show. Now see these two comedy greats as you've never seen them before in this inspired, exclusive hour-long assortment of timeless good times culled from Bud and Lou's appearances as host on network TV variety hours. Preserved originally on kinescope and available here for the first time in nearly 25 years, this fast, funny unforgettable lineup of more than 29 classic Abbot & Costello skits and manic moments will have you in stitches over "Who's on First?"- and keep you looking forward to what's up next.

Reviews
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Dotbankey A lot of fun.
GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
