- The Kingfish is at it again, this time he has slept through the night at the lodge and missed the dance, watch how he gets caught up in another funny situation. Enjoy this as any others I have because I'm just sharing what I have.
One of the best comedies ever on TV. Great actors, writers, and directors portrayed the characters as middle-class.
what fun to see after all these years..what Great actors and the scripts were hilarious.
Tim Moore and Spencer Williams deserve stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Emmys for their brilliance in the AMos n Andy series. Fantastic comic actors. Puts the current flock of posers to shame.
if you watch these actors and don't fall out from laughing then you don't know what comedy is I'm also 72 and when i was a kid i couldn't wait for them to come on because us black folks had to have something to look forward to in the South
Best SitCom of the 50's. Excellent writers, even better actors. Amos and Andy was the inspiration for many SitComs in America that followed in the 60's and 70's.
Georgee Connell kids ok
It was a great show and I always loved to watch it. Good memories laughing at all the situations.
the chemistry between these actors is great!!, definitely one of the best comedy tv shows around,too bad the reruns are not on tv for generations to appreciate,
not available because Bill Cosby bought them!!!
These comedians were priceless! !
At 51 seconds into the video, I think Sapphire says 'I wish to Heaven you could buy me a new dress,' not I wish to Hell you could buy me a new dress.'
Great actors, great scripts, timeless shows.
Wow I'm 74 now watched these great episodes in the 50's.
I'm 73 and I remember them, too. Great memories!
PLEASE keep uploading these wonderful sitcoms!!!!!!! It doesn't matter what color the people are.. They are wonderful actors & they are hilarious !!!!! I really don't understand why it is sooooo hard to find these. People are people . I'd much rather my children watching this & other 1950 shows then what is on now. Thank you so much for uploading these !!!!!!!
RIGHT ON Pam Hamilton
One of the best shows
Thanks for posting. These actors were superb comics and deserve praise and to be better remembered. This is earliest and only show where I saw black people portrayed as being in every profession.
Bill Cosby is responsible for that political move. Phoney.....look where he is now?
In an all-black show, they are bound to be, stupid!
@@alphonsozorro7952 depends on your point, I see it as a group of talented performers IN a comedy show. We laugh at lucy, laugh at the 3 stooges, making people laugh is the hardest job because we all have different approaches to humor. This show is a riot. Consistently funny.
@@randyacuna3248 There was humor in minstrel shows with talent actors. If you find this entertaining, do you also love minstrel shows that portrays black people as dumb and low down scum?
@@nm202 From a Blackman's point of view. U wrong!! This is disgusting for black people back in those times. Its make me so mad to see this Bullsh...!!
50's sitcoms are the funniest, nothing today comes even close to them........
My mom and I watch this because she said this used to be the best show back in those days. Most teens my age I don't think they would be interested in this but I am.
this is WAYYY better than the garbage on tv today, i think!!
your mom is a smart lady, you should listen to her! ha ha
Great sitcom. The fact that they died broke is very sad.
I was stationed in Biloxi Miss l968-69, Amos & Any was on Tv in the afternoon. Loved it then and love'em now.
i love the episodes I really find them refreshing.
These episodes are certainly collectors items and should be recognized.
Lol, Andy: "No your honor he pulled the robbery all by himself!" Classic!
Mymymy, the good old days I was a little girl but I remember the family sitting together at home watching Amos and Andy, king fish was always playing tricks on poor Andy, but Andy always came out ahead.
It is so great to see these great shows again,thanks!!
What a great show!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kingfish always getting into something all the time lol
This was great comedy.
I honestly forgot about Amos & Andy. What a great find. Thank you.
Loved Amos. Honest, smart and upstanding.
And barely on his own show!
"Holy Mackel!" Hilarious!!
"Signed a radioactive contract" - put his "John Hamhock on it and everything." LOL!!
I loved this show !
King fish always uses andy when he is in trouble
Whose watching this year 2019 Great comedy the whole show.
Kingfish is a great cat when he is not the mouse. No doubt people in Ghana love Amos and Andy TV series..
TV shows come and fade away but like The Andy Griffith Show and a few others, A&A will never get old. I'm glad a number of A&A shows made it to us today before they were senselessly halted by the PC power of the NAACP. (Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!).

This show takes me back to another era. A long gone New York City.
THE GOLDEN AGE OF SEGREGATION 1928 - 1968!
The characters made African-Americans look GOOD. All were law abbidding citizens in New York's Harlem's nearly segregated community. They supported each other and we're kind to White people and other racial groups.
They were also intelligent business persons. Amos owned a Taxi Cab company and employed several Negroes, Andy was the sole-owner of real estate development empire. Calhoun was an attorney, and Lightning was the building maintenance supervisor. Kingfish was the Grand Potenate of the Mistic Knights of the Sea.
The National Association for the advancement of Collerd People are directly responsible the being taken off the air. They (NAACP) protested the show; then boycotted the sponsors. CBS had to cancelled it while it was the Number one show on network television!
Thank you for posting. I miss those days.
Calhoun: "Sapphire tried to cover up by saying you were working but that brought down the house."
It was! And I noticed whoever was putting the laugh track in the show back then missed the humor in that line. I'm glad you laughed along with me. :)
I'd rather watch these videos, than the mess they got on tv today ...
My mother and I watched this every week. It was one of the best . They should bring the reruns back when shows were clean with language and people wore proper clothing.
This. show was light. years ahead of its. time it. laid the groundwork for The Jeffersons and The. Cosby Show and the rest
Only seen a short bit of this stuff, but already loving the charters.
Thanks for uploading these, i'm enjoying every episode!
Kingfish s occupation a financial manipulator I’m going to use that line the next time someone Asks my accupation
Well written and acted. Withstands the test of time.

Groucho Marx was a huge fan of Tim Moore's work and attended his funeral.
Calhoun was right about the prosecutor having you confess to everything whether it's true or not . Threaten you with 30 years and you'll confess to something that'll get you only 5 even if you didn't do it .
Sarpire is so pretty!
Sarpire!?!?!?
Tony Creswell I didn’t think she was attractive at all
@@kimberlygray699 She was beautiful.
good clean tv
Very Funny. Great show !
Thank you. I watched this on VHS as a kid. I bought a DVD set but I need the other episodes. I love me some Kingfish
Algonquin J. Calhoun was/is my personal favorite.
I love it....
So much better than the Honeymooners
Thanks for sharing! I just recently found two very old Victor 78 rpm records with the original stars from the radio show. They are singing on these. I hope to up load these to my You Tube channel tonight or tomorrow. A great comedy and the originals had really fine singing voices! Blessings always!
Hey Dennis Morrison,
Did you get it done yet?
I love this show..... its a quality comedy...Very classic..... Must be from the early 1950s or mid 1950s..... I like the beginning theme song...
Flip Wilson once commented on those who said Amos & Andy was racist. He said, "It's just plain funny."
Thank you so much for uploading these gems. I've subscribed too.
8- )
Great show real class have them on dvd
9:35 LMAO!!!! Brought down the house. lol
One of the best shows back in the day
Excellent transiment,old bu gold ÷keep on shucking/Soul Max x
Not trucking -shucking
Hamhock....lolololololol
The proper title to this episode is "The Light Blue Car". It originally aired December 1, 1953 - Season 3, Episode 13.
Thanks for pointing that out.
15:40. You're mistaken. The car appears too dark , even in black and white to be light blue. Like they said ...it's maroon. Then it was spray painted white. Where does the blue come in? And does this really matter?

Owen thank so much for this great upload it was on tv when i was just a Little kid .
Financial manipulator! Hilarious
I wish you could buy all of these series in DVD quality. I remember those days buying a car for $400.00, it came with a 30 second warranty......
barrygioportmorien1 I bought them while series back and they are great! I paid 75.00 and have the whole series ! Love them
The DVD complete series at one time could be found through Amazon.com. I got the set several years ago,
I got the entire series for a very good deal on EBay. P R I C E L E S S
C O M E D Y A T I T S B E S T 👏👏👏
@@nm202 I am in Canada, Could you please tell me where was yours shipped from, what was the cost, and how is the picture quality of the episodes, did you get all of the episodes, and in the entire series how many episodes were there in total??????
I loves me some Amos & Andy. The milkman shown at 4:43 was on a few 3 Stooges episodes. He was funnier than Curly
As the cook when the Stooges were plumbers:
"This place sure gone crazy"
There was talk about him becoming one of the Stooges when Shemp and Curly had both passed away but it didn't happen.
@@hollybardoe4075 That would have been a show to watch!
After shemp passed away they bought in joe , sadly his comedy training never really worked with moe and larry, and they were getting older so the trademark physical comedy is gone. It's best to give a pass to the late episodes. Getting a new stooge probably could not save them but they still had to make episode in the late 1950s because they were under contract.
@@randyacuna3248 I read where Joe Besser had it written into his contract that he refused to be slapped or poked by Moe. Larry had to take twice as much of the hitting. Joe Besser was the least liked stooge. He was a sissy.
A vacuum cleaner with a "paint spray attachment?"
The milkman in nearest Shell was there a couple of comedies with the Three Stooges I don’t know what his name is but he was a very good actor maybe I can do some research and figure out who is he is
His name is Dudley Dickerson. And yes, he was in over 100 films and TV shows back then, and
many with the Stooges as well as Abbott & Costello.
The episode starts off looking like it will be a rare one in which Kingfish doesn't try to bamboozle Andy... but of course he does.
It’s alway me ! Chlorophyll?? Really ? Hah?? Jesus says serve one another love one another ! Live peacefully in brotherly love !! Oldies !!
Kingfish was such a scammer. Lol.
This took place in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, New York because they showed Lenox Avenue in some of these 1950-1953 shows. When I had worked in the Brewerytown neighborhood of North Philadelphia ( North Killadelphia ), Pennsylvania, I told my supervisor that that neighborhood was similar to Harlem. She told me: I’ ve been to Harlem and I' ve been to Harlem. North Philadelphia is nothing like Harlem!😮
I' ve been to Harlem and I' very seen Harlem.😮😮
Thank you.
Calhoun was right on. Nowadays, they would call gaslighting in criminal court.😮
The newspapers always look blank can’t see any print. Newspapers were much more informative back then yes sir they was
1:00 damn usually the kingfish mispronounced words like chlorophyll. . Surprised he even knows what that is!
How does Andy always have big bucks?
I remember the milkman in a 3 stooges episode....
Yep. He was the cook in the episode where the stooges were doing some plumbing while the lady of the house was having a dinner party going on -- one of their funnier ones. His most memorable line: "Man, this house sho' gone crazy." LOL
oh know he pulled the robbery by himself. lol lol lol
Kingfish taking test
Amos and Andy radio and TV have close ties to Leave it to Beaver......... believe it or don't.
It's a shame Society has chosen its PC attitude in a feeble attempt to bury these treasures!
,2:39
Now more than ever the so called black educated class think they no better, smarter and superior to black people who may not be as educated. They take ownership of black people and think that they have a right to tell black people what to do and how to think. The white liberals don't have to keep us in chains that is now the job of our black masters or we can call them our superiors
Look at 51 seconds into the video. Did I hear Saphire say "I wish to HELL you could afford to buy me another dress?"
Sound like she said "I wish to Heaven"
Right.
These have been up for 6 years? I must say I'm pleasantly surprised that the SJWs haven't complained so many times that they've been removed.
I'm sitting in my aunt and uncles house along with my mom and dad and cousins, laughing our asses off. It's 1958.
Would you like some tickets for the policeman`s ball. Sorry I can`t dance. Its not a dance it`s a raffle.
Yess
Honestly, cannot believe some Libs aren't passing out right about now
I'm an unapologetic Lib and I love the show. It's one of my guilty pleasures.
He yah!
Damn! Was that Kingfish or Rip Van Winkle?!
Thankfully the black actors were allowed to play these characters. I thought they were superb. In the original series which was Radio, white actors played these parts.. And as for the so called reason they pulled the plug on this tv series(it was said it portrayed blacks in a demeaning roles,) I say " That's Comedy". Look at Archie Bunker(All In The Family) or Married With Children's Al Bundy and many more. Someone has to look silly to make it funny.
Fred Flintstone stupid they pulled the show. It was funny, entertaining and gave black actors a job portraying more than servants. The 1950's wasn't easy for black people
The show got a bum rap though because it featured blacks across the entire spectrum. This episode was proof of that the judge, cop, and baliff were all black. This was a funny show.
I love these shows
@jill scottman normal everyday life in comedy form who happen to be black. It takes real talent to make people laugh and sadly comedy is too political now. This was good clean family fun.
Lincoln Paul tell that DUMB FUCK👏👏👏
Play boy moves
St0p syning
Lol
😊
Hillbilly jayy
Watch
it was a shame that political correctness put these fine people out of a job....Many white people watched this show and enjoyed the comedy with no hint of racism until some do-gooder liberals made a stink about it.
Then, thrre was rap
Fabulous actors!! Best plots.. Best Actors ever. A pity they're shut own over Racism by the BlackCommunity. The allow Sanford andSon which is far worse and insulting.
It am be racial profiling
I would never buy or go see a movie like Amos n Andy.when I was a kid back in early 50's things have changed a whole lot .since then.but the remembers.are still there.and not necessarily good ones
@Milton Holley Except Kingfish.
I dont think they are voices of white men,they don’t sound anything like the radio version.
Why sell out a nation when you can sell out your friends. ☻
All black peoples aren't studip.ignorant or uneducated.
⛲ I don't see that at all. I see moving on up.
first: they can read and write.
secret cripto script
secondy: they dwell in structures with
ameneties/utilities. Car.
Thirdly: gotta have a job, good job(s).
moving on up.
