    Old School Comedy

    Really old school. I've long been a huge fan of comedy greats such as Red Skelton and Abbot and Castello. Recently, my family has introduced me to Victor Borge. I think I about peed my pants laughing. Santa got me the six disk collection of Victor Borge stuff. 'Tis HILARIOUS! Put it on your Netflicks, folks. Phoenetic Punctuation had me on the ground.
    I am no longer of capable of the emotion you humans call “compassion”. Though I can feign it in exchange for an hourly wage. (Gravekeeper)

        If you like old school comedy, you should see the 1991 movie "Oscar" with Sylvester Stallone. Hilarious!

          Join the club my good man.
          Marx Brothers
          Three Stooges
          Abbott and Costello - Who's on first is brilliant!
          Red Skelton
          Little Rascals
          The Goon Shows
          and more recent Monty Python

          The funny bit, people seem shocked I know who these people are, yet I'm 23, too young apparently.

          Check out a movie called "The Plank" - The name of the two main actors escapes me at the moment.

              It really is. Very timeless comedy right there.

                And not the least bit vulgar.

                    I'm not a huge fan of the old school stuff....EXCEPT George Burns, Abbot & Costello, and the Marx Brothers. Brilliant, every one of them.

                    Never found Bob Hope remotely funny. Despite being American and a guy and it being allegedly a requirement, never been all that amused by the Stooges. Laurel & Hardy? Little Rascals? Vaguely amusing, but to me, nothing special.

                        I have to admit, I can not get enough Smother Brothers though I've been rather lax about finding more of them lately. Marx Brothers movies are one of the things I grew up on!

                            And none of you have ever sat down to watch the Comedic Greatness that was Wayne and Shuster?

                            For Shame.

                            here's an example from 1970
