Choose wisely: Laurel and Hardy, or Abbott and Costello? ~

  • Abbott and Costello.  I kind of felt sorry for Stan Laurel, he was pitiful around Oliver Hardy.  But Lou Costello could hold his own with Bud Abbott.  They were funnier too IMO.

    Isnt the 'funny' in Laurel & hardy a bit less sadism-based than in the 3 stooges. Never saw Abott & Costello much, so no opinion about them.

    I have a memory.  It was about 1950 -60 era.  Abbot and Costello  were on TV and me and grandpa (from Italy) were kind of watching it.  And he commented in his broken English "oh, fatty and skinny, they're nice."  I don't know why I remember this.  

    But I loved grandpa, so I choose Abbot and Costello.

    They are both funny but I'll go with Laurel and Hardy.  Their humor was pure and natural.  Love em.
