The best comedy ever made. These guys were so classy and polite. Why did this show get removed from the main stream. This show is better than anything on TV.
@@rudolphsherkliff8726 it was definitely a cultural institution, the naacp never gets it right, even in the Brown v Board 1954 they let the writer's of the proclamation slip the words "all deliberate speed" and it caused the slow foot dragging reaction and schools, restaurants,hotels weren't fully integrated until 1970,71.
According to a past Amos N'' Andy episode, "The Rare Coin," Calhoun was disbarred from practicing law years before. That bit of info came about from Calhoun appearing as legal counsel in court, whereupon the presiding judge recognized him, and exclaimed that he had disbarred Calhoun three years prior.
This show ... Essays are needed. For me, it helped expose all the lies one heard in the south Can't remember how old I was...but I remember thinking of this episode as sweet Must look up my birthdate here Cannot even begin to convey all the memories this brings back 💯🌹🌻😊 Thank you
I love this show! When I learned that this show is controversial for supposedly being racist,I had to laugh because there is nothing even remotely "racist" about anything on this great TV show. The characters and character types can all be found in most other tv shows of the time (and today),as there is nothing unusual or improper about any of the characters,situations, plots,storylines,etc. that I've ever noticed. Instead,this is a very sweet,well-made,and extremely funny show that is worth watching. Please,don't blindly believe my opinion or anybody else's opinion/review of this show. The only opinion that really matters is yours,so watch this with an open mind and tell us what YOU think!🌞
How could it be racist? All the characters got jobs: Dr's. attys, nursrs6,hotel bellhop, mechanics, cab drivers, nothing's said derogatory about any races, ethnicities, or religions, not any more stereotypical than Ralph Kramden of the Honeymooners always scheming on Alice, Sanford and Son and All in the Family were more racist and stereotypical in it's dialogue.
This show mostly caught a bad rap because of the racist radio show of the same name, by the same creators. This show was excellent though and pre-cursor to many sitcoms that came after it.
In the earlier production of Amos N Andy, the characters were played by white men in black-face makeup. Not considered racist by standards accepted then, it quickly became so by the sensitive and pandering execs of those days.
There was criticism about this TV show, which led to its removal from the airwaves, as it was considered the show's main characters were considered stereotyped in a negative manner. But, all the supporting guest cast characters were working professionals, business owners, or worked in the legal system and medical fields; it showed African-Americans in a positive light.
So the NASCP out these talented actors out of work. Note; great comedy with clever dialogue - no profanity, porn references or violence. Respect for marriage and women. Humor was always upbeat. Compare to what passes for comedy today.
@@amyalewine Yeah, in South Africa i feel the prices are still high though...perhaps i need to do a quick market analysis, perhaps there is an opportunity there. Its important that black kids especially grow up seeing and playing with/around dolls which look like themselves. It has a huge effect for a society where anything that is good is associated with 'white'. Im not taking jabs at anything/anyone, just stating a fact we have lived.

This had to be the warmest of episodes. I actually shed a tear!
My first TV memories are Amos & Andy - Thanks so much
My first TV memories were Amos & Andy , my entire family would watch, nothing said in the dialogue that a child couldn't hear and it was funny.
What a great episode. It was touching and funny at once. Good writing.

Consummate character actors of Vaudeville era on film. These skits are timeless.

That is by far the best stuff I have seen and heard for a long time. I'm still rolling on the floor laughing.

CBS has the 35 millimeter negatives. I wish that we could see the series remastered. It is hilarious.
Great 👍🏿
They were perfectly cast. My question is, how much did they earn?
20:05: "...Well this looks like a clear case of diffused epidermis of the third & fourth vibrato..."
We only started making black dolls very recently in Africa....interesting.
Really. I wondered about that when I saw this clip. Im so glad they had dolls for both skin color back then.

@@ignetiusrapelwana2208 100% agree.
@@amyalewine she can only speak for South Africa and not eastern africa Ethiopians always had their own dolls
My daughter has a black doll. The other day she said 'Daddy the doll is pretty just like me.' It made me very happy.
What a classic!
Raymond Burr is the criminal in this episode. He plays the detective in the tv show Ironside.
BLESSED DAY STAY SAFE
And you ,too Lisa!
@@gilloera8912 Thank u 😃
Thank you. I needed that
Classic comedy of the 1st order.

Actually, the baby turned 69 in calendar year 2022 because this episode was filmed in 1953 but not broadcast until 1955.
