5 out of 5 stars Classic Live TV COMEDY:GOLDEN AGE OF TV: Black & White.......2007-04-02

Comedy: Classic Black & White: Condition - New/Sealed: REGION FREE - Interactive Menus - Scene Selection -Featuring shows telecast from 1950 to 1955. STARS: Eddie Cantor, Frank Sinatra, Eddie Fisher, Abbott and Costello, Victor Borge. 83 minutes. Digitally Remastered 2005 by Miracle Pictures div. of PMC Corp. Shows of this time period were originally made by aiming a motion picture film camera at a live T.V. monitor of the live show being broadcast (Kinescope) as there were no Video recorders in those days and then these films were remastered to DVD. This DVD takes Public Domain material (entertainment that original copyright date has expired) like all reissue companies from film or video and converts them to DVD for reissue. Unfortunately reissue entertainment companies do not have the $25,000 per frame cost (30 frames per minute) or $100,000 New Cover Mastering costs to to restore old films or video tapes audio & video masters to the modern digital possibilities but do offer us a window on the past and interesting or entertaining subjects like these LIVE TV SHOWS of the 1950's!

5 out of 5 stars Eddie Cantor and Abbott and Costello!.......2005-11-13

What a joy to see these old television classics. The quality of the picture is poor, but the sound is excellent. If you're old enough to remember Eddie Cantor you'll love seeing him again. The Abbott and Costello program includes a live performance of their classic "Who's on First." We also get a chance to see a young Frank Sinatra singing in his prime. This DVD is priceless.

Eine amüsante Nostalgie DVD der Komiker Abbott & Costello über die man heute noch lachen kann. Die Bild-Qualität ist auf Grund der alten Aufnahmen aus den 50'ern nicht so gut.

This is gonna be quick. If you're a Les Paul and Mary Ford fan you NEED this DVD. They appear on one of the shows... a looong appearance. You'll find out that Mary could play as well as Les.
If you buy this for Les and Mary you wont be disappointed.

      1 out of 5 stars Another Duplicate!.......2004-01-14

      My 1 star rating here is not related to Abbott and Costello. As far as I'm concerned, almost everything they produced was worthy of 5 stars.

      THIS IS A DUPLICATE of a DVD that I have now purchased no less than 3 TIMES!

      One of the disadvantages of selling something online is that you can't always determine what you are buying. Unfortunately, this Amazon part number didn't have any description or picture of the packaging, so I took a chance it was something new.

      This title should read "The Abbott and Costello Show". It's the same green DVD package from GoodTimes DVD that is sold under two other configurations.

      Before you order, confirm that you don't already have this UPC/ISBN.

      This particular title is:
      ISBN 0-7662-1153-3
      UPC 0 18713 81406 7

      It's a live 1954 episode of The Colgate Comedy Hour, with guests Jane Russell, Rhonda Fleming, Connie Haines and Beryl Davis.

      "Too broke to pay their rooming house bill in the fictional Latin country of Bolamania, Bud and Lou rehearse a magic trick in the hope of landing a nightclub gig before Lou hits on the idea of impersonating El Presidente. The boys dissolve into laughter and ubscripted ad libs, poke affectionate fun at Liberace and You Bet Your Life and recreate various classic routines, while the lovely ladies perform a medley of musical numbers. Complete with original ads for Colgate Dental Cream. Palmolive Soap, Ajax Cleanser, Fab Detergent and Halo Shampoo, the show also stars Baby Mistin, Nester Paiva (Tarantula), Benny Rubin and Jim Hayward."

      1 out of 5 stars I assume.............2003-04-30

      I assume this is at least 1 episode of their live COLGATE COMEDY HOUR shows - several of which are available on VHS.

      1 out of 5 stars WHAT IS THIS?.......2003-02-20

      I would love to know what this dvd is about....no description, reviews? why?

      1 out of 5 stars What is this DVD.......2003-01-22

      Can anyone tell me what this DVD is? I have all the Abbott & Costello DVDs that are available, but i dont know if i have this one because there is no picture or description about this DVD. Please someone must know.
      Thanks.
