5.0 out of 5 stars Great routines from THE classic comedy duo, December 12, 2007
By JPL (California) - See all my reviews
This is a great DVD of hilarious performances from Abbott and Costello. Put together with volume 1 in the "Funniest Routines" series, it makes a great addition to the "Classic Comedy" section of anyones DVD library. Great fun that the whole family can enjoy together.

These routines are presented in black and white. The only part of it that is in color are two bonus features. One of these is probably the most famous comedy routine of all time, "Who's on First." This is the first time that Who's on First has ever been presented in color, and to me, it makes it worth owning the DVD for. The rest of the routines are presented in black and white, and were clearly taken from a superior transfer than other collections I've seen: They look great!

Here is a list of the routines the disc includes:

-Getting down off a duck's back
-The Ice Cream bit
-Bryant-444
-Get out of the office
-The Handkerchief gag
-Higher and Lower
-Cotton in the Ears
-The Dancing Partner
-The Initiation
-Oh! Charlie
-The Porthole
-The Hammock Routine
-Go ahead, play the music
-A figure of speech
-Crazy House
-Who's on First
and a bonus classic Jiffy Pop commercial


And be sure to check out Volume 1

1.0 out of 5 stars Badly Advertised, February 29, 2008
I looked forward to getting this Abbot & Costello DVD with great anticipation of sharing it with my children. I especially looked forward to their "Who's on First" routine. I was greatly disapointed.

Most of the material on the DVD comes from an early television program and was probably very funny at the time. Taking it out of that context, however, leaves it less than amusing.

The greatest disappointment was the clip of "Who's on First". Not only did they abridge the routine, it's done as an afterthought during a cameo appearance. What you find on the internet is much better.

My recommendation - if you're looking for the real Abbott & Costello, don't look here.

2.0 out of 5 stars Where's the Colorization??, November 20, 2007
Well, I've been fooled again. I bought this DVD along with Vol. 2 of A&C Funniest expecting to get COLORIZED versions of the Colgate Comedy A&C comedy routines, instead all I got was b/w versions of their bits. The bits are good, for sure, but I expected to get COLOR versions, not the b/w drab versions. I am very disappointed, I wanted these in color. I was also fooled with another Legend release supposedly releasing 3 Stooges bits in color, instead only a tiny piece was colorized and the majority of the Stooge 3 disc set that I got was in it's original b/w. WHERE'S THE COLORIZATION??? What's with the misleading advertising leading you to believe you're about to see a beautifully colorized DVD set, when instead you get literally a couple of minutes of some material colorized but 99% of the DVD is b/w. I WANTED COLORIZATION, not b/w, I've been ripped off. Who do I clobber? Oh, myself for being fooled twice.
