      I'd like to see them react to listening to the board routine, or Costello's farm or their Hertz U Drive routine, or even their "Story of Moby Dick" routine. It would be a nice change from watching them react to the same routines as all the others that react to "Dice" and "Two Tens For A Five". I find it harder and harder to believe in these reaction videos when every single reactor always reacts to the same set of videos and always in the exact same order like it was written as a rule that if they were going to do reactions they had to do them that way like they were all part of the same cookie cutter factory.

    Hi Millie and James. This is classic Abbott &Costello. They started performing in the 1930s. The first broadcast of this routine was on radio in 1938. They were the highest paid entertainers during WWII. This version is from their TV show. It aired in 1953. Keep up the great work

    The skit of "Who's On First" did indeed originate in 1938....on the RADIO, but the version you watched was broadcast on television many years later which is why Bud Abbott, when asking the audience what they'd like to hear was surprised when they said baseball as by then it was a pretty old routine of theirs. Try reacting to one of their old radio skits like "Hertz U-Drive" or "The Board Routine".

      As a child, I used to watch reruns of "The Abbott & Costello Show" on TV every weekday after school in the mid-late 1950s -- a fond memory for me
      There is an earlier version of this "7x13=28" bit from a WWII-era movie called "Abbott & Costello In The Navy" th-cam.com/video/_HvGven4qJ0/w-d-xo.html
      An earlier version of "Who's On First" is from a "The Naughty Nineties" a 1945 film. The version you reacted to is from a benefit show for The Retired Actors Home. th-cam.com/video/sShMA85pv8M/w-d-xo.html
      The reason they are so good at these complex routines lies probably in their having been stage performers (I'd guess in Vaudeville?) where they would do the same schtick 3 times a night for weeks or months on end. They then brought these routines into radio, then films and later TV.
      This version of "Who's On First" is in color(!!!) for the USO and gives a sense of the days of radio. its the first time (TODAY) that I've ever seen them in color! th-cam.com/video/bpxkyTc9Z38/w-d-xo.html

      The animosity angle has been played way up, much like the supposed 'hatred' between Boris Karloff and Blea Lugosi. It is true that towards the end of their career they had a falling out, but hardly throughout their heyday. Despite what you see in their performances, Abbott was the nicer of the two and Costello was a sharp operator.

    • @MykeruMedia
      @MykeruMedia 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The "they hated each other" angle is girl gossip. There was tension between each other due to the fact that their personalities and on-screen personas were virtually swapped. Bud Abbott was the easy-going one, while Lou Costello was the driven, ambitious one and the perfectionist of the two. Sometimes a team like this breaking up has nothing to do with hatred and everything to do with the fact that they achieved everything they could, and they wanted to move on. Just because they were capable of doing their bits with the same energy the 500th time as the 1st doesn't mean they wanted to do it forever. But their break up at the end of their career is as easily attributable to the various traumas that Lou Costello suffered, including his son drowning in a swimming pool. He was so deeply affected by this that he had a bracelet commemorating this child welded onto his wrist. It could not be removed. If you watch their TV shows carefully you can sometimes catch a glimpse of it. Lou Costello died years before Bud Abbott did and I've seen interviews with Bud Abbott near the end of his life and I never got the impression that they hated each other.

      Yes, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello actually really didn't like each other. However, they both recognized how good they were on stage.

    Hi guys! Great clips! I used to watch their half hour shows all the time. In these difficult times, I am so glad I found your TH-cam shows. Your very sincere and I enjoy you both very much!

    This is considered by some to be the greatest burlesque comedy routine by a duo of all time.
    i love everytime there is even a reference to it.
    thanks for the video

    That was a clip from The Abbott and Costello Show . They had their own TV series in the early 1950s , and they did 52 episodes . As a comedy team, they made 36 movies together ,Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein being their most famous one. The two of the them did these comedy routines so. much, they probably could do them in their sleep.

    Lol! I have not seen that one before? Another good one is "Watts Volts? Yes!" Similar but shorter than who is on 1st, about electricity

    Another funny one is "Mustard"probably second IMO,to Who's on First as far as showing Costello being annoyed with what Abbott is telling him 🤣

    One of my favorite bits from the duo is the stolen diamond necklace in the hamburger routine. I remember seeing it on an old A&C videotape compilation of their comedy hour series. The premise is simple, but what makes the skit funny is how Lou (Costello) breaks character throughout the routine.

    Sid Fields was sort of the third member of the team in their TV show in the 1950s.

    Watch Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein or mummy or Dracula but they're movies so enjoy them together not for a reaction video.

    The Who’s On First video you saw was not from the 30s. Abbott and Costello started their routine in the 1930s but what you saw was made much later, in the 1940s. In the 1930s there wasn’t much filming of stage acts as it was later on in the 1940s and 50s.

      The Beesleys, Check out the "Ma And Pa Kettle" skit on 14x5=25 and the contract sketch between Groucho and Chico from "A Night At The Opera". Priceless and hysterical.

    (sigh) The "Who's On First?" clip that you watched previously was from the May 15, 1953 episode of "The Abbott And Costello Show" entitled "The Actor's Home". The routine itself, from their stage act, originated in 1938. In 1938 Abbott and Costello were not yet in films and commercial television did not yet exist in America. 1953.....not 1938.
