Back when I was kindergarten age I went to a an Abbott and Costello movie (Abbott and Costello Meet Jack in the Bean Stalk) and both Lou and Bud were there promoting the film. I got separated from my sister and cried my eyes bloody red. Lou and Bud saw me and came immediately to offer aid and comfort until they could find my sister. They were gents and charming guys. Always will cherish that memory . Irving Theater...1959
At least Abbott and Costello got to meet the Creature from the Black Lagoon. They should have made a movie with the Gill Man before Lou retire due to illness.
for INFO Larry Fine of the 3 stooges contacted Lou's manger, and offered Lou the third stooge , Lou manger contacted Larry back said Lou would be delighted to be the third stooge, he just had to finish his contract in Vegas and would fly out to the west cost.Lou pass away a couple days later. He would been in Have Rocket, Will Travel.
I don't know..If Norman Abbott worked on"The Munsters"? But? I do know that he did work on"Leave It To Beaver"which was filmed at Bud and Lou's former studio Universal.
2:44. "Well, i'll get the pen,I'll get some ink over here, I'm in good shape!" What follows after that still makes me laugh today, one of the earliest lols i ever got!
I watched many of their movies when I was a child in the late 1960's & early '70's. The ones involving monsters and WW2 were the best, and funniest.The grouchy Bud Abbott was handsome.I watched their cartoon on tv, too.It was in color, and some of those are on You Tube.Same with the cartoon of Laurel & Hardy.I watched it as a kid, and it was in color.I think both cartoons were on TV for 2 seasons.They were funny and good quality.
This is a routine they did with comedienne Joan Davis in 'Who Done It', then later with Hillary Brooke on the Abbott and Costello TV show. Funny stuff.
Hey, what's wrong with this picture? IMDb says this episode was aired in November 1953. The audience clearly recognizes the creature. However, "The Creature from the Black Lagoon" wasn't released in theaters until March 1954. Explanation please.
+AL LANDGRAF Sadly, their relationship apparently had deteriorated so much that, when Costello died, Abbott first found out about it through reading it in the newspaper.
Actually, their agent called and told Bud. Bud was upset that he wasn't told of Lou's illness, but Lou told his family, and their agent, not to tell Bud anything.
Well, not for another 2 and a half years. They appeared on another four episodes of Colgate; about another 15 episodes of their own show; and another three theatrical features.
I preferred to have to watch them in their films/movies. Costello doesn't look "right" in this t.v. sketch, even allowing for the quality of early television-recordings: his face looks puffy, jowly, as if he was ill. He could only have been in his forties at the time.

Irving Theater...1959
jwta5646 that's cause men were men and were gentlemen back then. plus they would stand and sit when a female left. I wish I had been growing up then.
What a fantastic memory to have.
that's awesome!
@@matthewzablocki5310 There's also the fact that both men were fathers who had young children of their own.
The irving theatre in Indianapolis?
Bud and Lou are simply masters. I LOVE the "...Meet..." movies
Me too.
At least Abbott and Costello got to meet the Creature from the Black Lagoon. They should have made a movie with the Gill Man before Lou retire due to illness.
This two were the best comedians ever! Totally Hillarious
I remember as a kid taking bus to downtown movies and watching "Creature from the Black Lagoon". It was freaking scary, man.
The creature is my favorite and the most underrated of all the monsters.
Same here!
mine too! :)
They should have make a movie with the Gillman. Could have been hilarious.
What's cool is that this is how Universal unveiled gillman to the world!
Everyone probably had no idea what the hell that thing was until a year later when the creature would be released
I wish they made this into a full movie, with those 2, frankenstein's monster and the gillman !
Don't forget to the Invisible Man
a time when you didn't need laugh tracks or a someone telling people, "hey, this is the joke so laugh".
Two geniuses of comedy!!!
They were masters of comedy!
abbott was my great grand father... A master indeed
these guys never got old
"who are you breaking the breakaway chair over' "well, we'll figure that out later..." lol
This video just leaves me almost dying with laughter!
My family and I watched this when it first aired (1953) on our brand new Dumont television .
Now that's real good clean comedy.
Sweet, my favorite Universal monster! I was always kinda sad A&C didn't meet him, now I know they did! Epic!

So,another six or so months and film history would have been made. To bad.
these guys are hilarious as heck back then especially when Costello gets the living crap scared out of him ha ha haaaaa!
I'm sad that unfortunately there wasn't a film with Gillman, but at least we have this little theater
Bud's nephew:Norman Abbott plays the gruesome prop man in this skit.
I wonder if it's the same Norman Abbott who produced Leave It To Beaver and The Munsters?
He looks and sounds like Sidney Fields.
@@buffalopatriot Yes..directed many shows in the 60's and 70's
I don't know..If Norman Abbott worked on"The Munsters"? But? I do know that he did work on"Leave It To Beaver"which was filmed at Bud and Lou's former studio Universal.
Technically it’s only costello meets the creature, but yeah cool skit
Love it when Costello breaks the fourth wall

This was just before their break up.
Costello at 12:24---I'm still laughing! This coincided with the release of the "Creature from the Black Lagoon" from Universal-International.

"Looks like a jury I once knew."
The best 😢
They absolutely are!

5:29 , Hey Bud , Lou doesnt Smoke. lol
You missed another one...Mr Hyde is behind them also, wearing a top hat.
Sitting here watching the Creature from the Black Lagoon with the commentary on, and this was mentioned!
The Frankenstein monster looks a little like Brock Lesnar
Creach rocks!!~
6:00 min in and I can't stop laughing so hard that my stomach is clinched up in pain .
classic comedy.
And that was actually Glenn Strange himself as the Monster!
Funniest live show that I ever saw.
Clean family entertainment
11:43 LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂
All that and the creature is only on screen for 30 seconds. I was suckered.
I’m Lou for Halloween
I would liked a ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET THE MUMMY with Boris Karloff instead.

Movie Trailers existed back then. As the guy mentioned it was their latest picture. So it was being advertised that night.
13:44 how the hell did they kill costello like that 😕
"HEY, ABOOOOT! AAAAAABOOOOOOOOOT!!!"
They broke up for good not long after this......

Harpo 190 that's something to think about
Legends
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO WAS PLAYING FRANKENSTEIN? GLENN STRANGE?
Yes, it was Glenn Strange, and in the voice-over credits he was referred to as Glenn Strangle.
Beulah Lagosi, lol
"Also in the cast was" Carolyn Jones...that's Morticia Addams you numbskulls!

#ugottacrhisb4udie
