This Is Your Life Laurel And Hardy

It's a miracle we still have this historic episode. Thanks for uploading.

[@doctorinsomnia5410]

This was from December of 1954. Would be their last TV appearance together. Less than 3 years later, Oliver Hardy had a stroke and eventually died from complications. Best comedy duo ever, and there will never be another one like them. Timelessly funny.

[@JamesHenderson-wk4hd]

The stroke was in September 1956.

Neither Hardy or Laurel seem terribly comfortable or happy with this “surprise”. I can’t say I would either!

[@10Tuxedo]

No, they were none too pleased about it. I read that they hated it.

[@christopherp.hitchens3902]

@@10Tuxedo - Yes, they were far more polite than happy. I love these guys. It seemed a rude and tiring interruption for these gentlemen. Not even the “Old friends” seemed welcome (in this situation) and, I wonder if they were really THAT CLOSE to begin with. Of course, none of this matters anymore …that whole world of Hollywood is long gone.

[@uiflorin]

They had a special affection for one another, they completed each other. Stan Laurel did not perform after Ollie's death, he was grief striken and the history remembers he continued to write sketches for Laurel and Hardy until his death, just as a token of love and respect for his lost friend. When he past away, his last words were:"I'd rather go skiing than do this".

[@stevefaure415]

Every six months of so I come back and watch this. If you grew up watching Laurel and Hardy and loving them like I did this couldn't be any more touching. Seems like their sweet, funny characters on film were not at all too far off from their real personalities. At least, that's what we're left with from this and a few other late-era clips. And that's good enough.

[@jeffebdy]

I didn't laugh much as a child, apparently, but I all but cried with laughter every L&H movie I watched... one Christmas in England, late 1960's they played a L&H movie every morning over Christmas... the best Christmas I ever had!

[@24vGuTz]

I sure miss my grandfather. It's because of him that I grew up watching these two. Abbott and Costello, The Three Stooges, Red Skelton... all great.
