Abbott & Costello's 100th Anniversary collection DVD

As a long time fan of comedy in general, you have to put this one with the Three Stooges as a must have collection.
The quality and sound are excellent. It brings back my childhood days of which we must never forget ! Thanks ! July 28, 2008

Goofy but Golden

It's the same simplistic,silly stuff A&C have always done and have
always been loved for. It's truly golden TV. I wish Sid Fields had received more acknowledgement over the years as he was the most versitile and personally my favorite player in the cast. April 19, 2008

Thank You, Thank You, and Thank You

For all you fans of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello who were disappointed in the defective discs of their franchise movie collections made a few years back, here is the real answer to Abbott and Costello DVDs. The makers of these discs took their time and energy to make them with impeccable quality, great sound, amusing classic episodes, and Lou's two surviving children, Paddy and Chris, in extra footage pay sentimental tribute to their father and their "Uncle Bud." Their classic routines in the TV show are basically the same from the movies, where in one episode, for instance, has Lou calling a phone operator trying to collect a grand prize, and the operator scoffs at him, telling him "The line is busy." That routine can be found in the movie "Who Done It." And of course, there will never, ever an Abbott and Costello collection complete without the immortal "Who's on First?," their national anthem.

Hopefully in the future, the makers of this 100th Anniversary Collection Season will take time and energy to make their movies the same way so fans won't feel like their missing anything on the movies. It was such a shame that the makers of the Franchise Collection did a haphazard job with too many skips and glitches. Not here in this special anniverary, commemorating Lou's 100th birthday and making him Paterson, New Jersey's favorite son. Watch this collection as well as the second set, and you will never be disappointed. For relaxing times, when you can't find anything good on TV and you need a episode to wind down and laugh before bedtime, watch anything from both sets of this special DVD collection.
