I love this! LOL.... Costello: "LEAVE GOOOOOOOO OF MEEEEEEEEEE....!" I wish the classy humor like this was still in style. Oh how I love the good ol' days!
You know what? Crazy house is more surrealistic. Are you familiar with that? Bud plays the doctor, Lou plays the new patient in a mental hospital that's just as mental as the people in it. Hilarious!
you missed the funniest part, when Abbott comes back and says something about the Sasquehanna Hat and Costello screams "Sasquehanna Hat Company" and destroys the last Sasquehanna Hat.

Vaudeville routines still work today, clean semi-violent, funny as it gets, like "Slowly I, Turn" routine, they reprised this on their 50s TV sitcom, with Joe Besser (Stinky) and Mike the Cop (Gordon Jones) I'm always amazed at the Haters/losers out there, that give thumbs down, we have a dysfunctional society for sure.....
It's like watching an episode of SEINFELD.It was the Seinfeld of its day.They would run into the weirdest people.So Funny ABBOT and COSTELLO were the best.
timless comedy--see it here-done long time ago--because it will never be done so well by others--we have forgotten the cleverness of words,timing and comedy--twitter was made for twits--a useless exercise-lets get back to real entertainment like this-thx for posting
My husbands' dead, my husbands' dead...He ain't dead lady...He's hidin"
Classic, best AC line ever!!!!!
Then Bud tells Lou "Stop insulting women."
i love this old comedy nice and clean not filled with swear words and potty humor and still funny .
Thanks so much for posting this video, I'm in my 50's and it never gets old for me.
This routine is absolutely nuts!!!
😂😂😂😂😂
I love this! LOL.... Costello: "LEAVE GOOOOOOOO OF MEEEEEEEEEE....!" I wish the classy humor like this was still in style. Oh how I love the good ol' days!
Hey Abbotttt!!!! I love Abbott and Costello that was a classic.
Way ahead of its time! The greatest!
"He ain't dead lady. He's hiding." Dennis Leary uses this line in a film called The Ref 40 years later.
I watched this so many times. It's the funniest skit!
This another funny Abbott & Costello routine~~~~ Very funny!!
So funny!!
lol. say something nasty about my brother. say he doesnt deserve parole. LOL!
My favourite line
One of the funniest duo's in comedy.
Yes can’t nobody say no to that
THE funniest...
Thank you! Have loved this sketch ever since I first saw it years ago. One of the funniest I have ever seen.
This has to be the most surrealistic funny peice ever
You know what? Crazy house is more surrealistic. Are you familiar with that? Bud plays the doctor, Lou plays the new patient in a mental hospital that's just as mental as the people in it. Hilarious!
@@darknessanddistance4469 You got that right. It was a classic episode of their comedy series - very creative and ahead of its time
I'd love to hear Luigi tell his insurance how this damage occurred.
loved this,one of their best!
I tend to look pretty spiffy in a $7.50 hat too
This is from the 1944 film In Society.
@martyman1
The movie was actually called "In Society"...just an FYI
you missed the funniest part, when Abbott comes back and says something about the Sasquehanna Hat and Costello screams "Sasquehanna Hat Company" and destroys the last Sasquehanna Hat.
Johnny Presberg There is another clip of it on here with it. But the ending is just as good on here.
You know what is also interesting is that the hat box is still there. Lou ran away without it, yet next scene he has it.
@@sha11235 universal studios hollywood movies on Netflix interview request review oasr awesome picture awards TCM hollywood netflix original post office box of power outage map money made into store story about how many days before
Lou throws the second hat in the air when the third woman screams. Where does it land? We never see it land.
Another one of those sketches where poor Lou says the magic word and gets attacked each time like the Niagara Falls sketch
I have never laughed so hard in my life!! This is the BEST clip of AC ever!
I'd hate to own a branch of that hat company in Niagara Falls.
Niagara Falls?!?! Slowly I turned, step by step ...
@@KimberlyGreen INCH BY INCH
Who owns the Niagara falls at company on Susquehanna?
@@darknessanddistance4469 It's another skit.
'he's not dead, he's hiding" - great line to say to widows who recently lost their husbands
$7.50 in 1944 is $99.61 in 2014 money
+Martin Fuller then we should try to find that 1944 money
if you're not working, who cares?
bitzofdataz no who's on second.
He's not asking you who's on second.

....good thing he didn't ask if Bagel St was in Niagara Falls!!!
2 Favorite Lines:
"Boy, the Sasquehanna Hat Company, that's what I think of that!!"
"Bagel Street... AAAAAAAAAHHHHH" 3 Times :D
He ain’t dead lady. He’s hiding
Maybe Arvid should've said to the second man, "I think I met your wife a few minutes ago."
1:02 "Boy, the Sasquehanna Hat Company, that's what I think of that!!!"
Loved this.
Fantastic!
Hats off, I'm dying just laughing!
I love this!
@leafyutube It's on bagel street
Like these days
Three things you never discuss with most people: politics, religion, and whatever comes to mind.
Most of all, don't mention the Sesquehanna hat company ;)
@@colbyjackmac2840 Or Niagara Falls.
Spongebob Squarepants CHOCOLATE GUY came from this, it seems to similar.
This was done in the 1950's - The Abbott & Costello show, pre Monty Python. Their movies from the 1940's also had many of these routines.
It is from their 1944 film "In Society".
It's like watching an episode of SEINFELD.It was the Seinfeld of its day.They would run into the weirdest people.So Funny ABBOT and COSTELLO were the best.
Funny tbat you mentioned Seinfeld. This reminded me of the scene with the crazy obsessive mechanic.
Jerry Seinfeld always credited Abbott & Costello as a major influence. He did a whole half hour show analyzing "Who's On First?" on the MLB network.
and you put a wire in and I cut my finger. If you folks loo closely the gents finger was bleeding. The best alibiing you will ever see
Luigi called Costello “Abbott”
He says “what can I do for you now, Abbott?”
He said "Albert". That is Lou's character's name in the movie.
60 years ago: Comedy
Today: Snowflake Reality
A really great routine
I'd have to check that film again.
Wow, that is not a popular company.
Trump is more popular.
They need to step their PR game
I wonder how many takes they did of Luigi wrecking his place? Today I know it would be so many.
I wonder what happen to Mario though?
@@mtvbrill6620 Judging by the skit, it was something horrible on Bagel Street involving the Sasquehanna Hat Company
I'd like to see Curly Howard in the Lou Costello role doing this sketch; he'd probably do it a lot better. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!
I hate that these aren't on TV anymore at least not where I live.
I wonder if the modern day equivalent is siri shouting BAGLE STREET!!!!?!?!?!
4:15 Looks like we found that woman's husband.
Daniel Wilson You know what? I'll bet that is part of the joke in this whole funny bit.
it maybe either he survived or that's his ghost
Can anyone else not hear this?
now they don't have to deliver the hats anyway
Looks as if Marlon Brando had some spare time while filming "The Godfather"!
I wonder what would happen if Bud asked it. Maybe he would get the directions and that would be that.
This looks like it may have been a Monty Python influence.
What movie is this from?
Guess I won't be buying one of THEIR hats lol
It;s SUSQUEHANNA !!!!!!!!!!!
Niagara Falls sketch
@jayrivetedan It is that they are trying to find a place that everyone apparently hates and they take it out on Lou and the hats.
is this where joey diaz got the "Sasquehanna weed" bit
SUSKEWANNAAAAA!
Another great A& C sketch. But this one is weird- kind of dark and absurd.
This show....gave me EXTREM diahreia
Wonder how the insurance company handled Luigi's damage?
Hopefully he didn't mention the Sasquehanna Hat Company :D
Gerald McIntosh SUSQUEHANNA!!!!???!!! SUSQUEHANNA!!!!!!!! (tosses laptop out the window)
Gerald McIntosh
Who's "he"?
That would work, I'll admit that.
Did he ever make it?
SUSquehanna :) please correct
I think you mean "Let go of me." Anyway, the problem is today there are no comedy teams and everyone is dirty in order to be funny. Not these guys.
I think if today they hopstopped it the computer would blow up.
the first guy was on the tv show
I wonder how many hats they actually broke doing so many takes. Today you know it would be 100.
Today they could hopstop it and I'll bet the computer would blow up. Also, when did Lou pick up that vase? Continuity error I think.
I think today it would be a lot more expensive.
i think someone put lsd in their water.
@zg1000dru1 Love that movie!
Cheap hats if they can be punched through like that.
+sha11235 Well we know they are cheap hats. They weren't even strong enough to protect that guy who had a safe fall on his head from 15 stories up.
it was the cloth rationing from the war that took all the money
I don't think ANY kind of a hat could've protected that man from the safe. Not even an army hat.
Where exactly is the Sasquehanna hat company?
It's on Bagel St. Ask anybody.
Good thing Moe Howard didn't show up. He'd have beaned Lou in the eyes.
timless comedy--see it here-done long time ago--because it will never be done so well by others--we have forgotten the cleverness of words,timing and comedy--twitter was made for twits--a useless exercise-lets get back to real entertainment like this-thx for posting
cant have shit in bagel street
They didn't have it then. I think it wouldn't help anyway.
Child labor? Oh, like Kathie Lee Gifford?
LOL
It's spelled "Susquehanna".
Abbott has surprisingly little to do in this skit.
Was that the wicked witch?
No... The wicked witch is played by Margaret Hamilton
That's Elvia Allman. She was also the factory foreman in the "I Love Lucy" episode where Lucy and Ethel get jobs in a chocolate factory.
And stop insulting women!
No Martin Fuller it was equal to $99.60 in 2014 money.:
How could they not know where it was? Don't they live in that town?
I admit that didn't work for me. Like the Niagra Falls routine, but way too over the top. :-(
I think it's terrific.
The last part is the best, with Luigi wrecking his shop.
His Iphone would probably fly apart.
Luigi doing that to his shop could also be him reacting to Donald Trump winning the election last November.
Oh, I said that first comment before. Forgot.
Just to prove: Everyone in America is self-centered and has anger issues.
Well, that's true, I'd say. We are a selfish species.
Jake Snake Case and point. XD
Louay Attia hahaha
I didnt get the humor there.
