| Overview: | Nine short comedy-classics from four great comedy teams on two terrific double-sided discs, including:
THE THREE STOOGES:
The world will never forget these zany kings of madcap! The pie-in-the-face comedy trio are at it again in four hilarious subjects: "Disorder In The Court", "Malice In The Palace", "Sing A Song Of Six Pants", and "Brideless Groom".
LAUREL & HARDY:
No one has brought the world more laughter than the comedy team of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. Nor is anyone more beloved than these two funny, gentle men--the thin one and the fat one. "Flying Deuces" is a perfect example of this duo's unique and hilarious comedy style!
ABBOTT & COSTELLO:
Abbot & Costello were one of the greatest comedy teams in the history of show business. They mastered the straight man/clown relationship, creating a magical chemistry that would take them from the burlesque stage, to radio, to Broadway, to film, and finally to television. "Africa Screams" is a true testament of their comedic genius!
W.C. FIELDS:
One of the world's greatest comedians, W.C. Fields was a master mimic whose humor and mock pompousness was accompanied by a unique combination of a nasal drawl, wooden expression, and flawlessly timed gestures. He ad-libbed many of his radio and movie scripts and maintained a cynic's role both on and off the screen. In these hilarious programs--"The Dentist", "The Fatal Glass Of Beer", and "The Golf Specialist"--you will see why everyone loves this comic legend!
