Favorite Comedy Teams

[Smithy]

Might as well mention Morecambe and Wise in the list of teams from the UK.

Oops too true, they should've been in there.

 

[LadyStardust]

Hope & Crosby!
Laurel & Hardy

I like individual comedians better, what can I say. [huh]

 

[XShipRider]

Abbott and Costello hands down favorites.
Stooges - love their full length feature movies.

 

[GOK]

Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett
Smith and Jones
Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie
David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst (Only Fools and Horses)
Robert Lindsay and Zoe Wanamaker (My Family)

I'd forgotten about Griff Rhys Jones and Mel Smith - good call, Smithy! I'd also like to add the entire Blackadder and Spaced teams; writers and casts!

The Bickersons

They probably belong in a Radio thread, but I've always loved the Don Ameche, Francis Langford comedy team.

I always thought the writing and timing was very clever and very funny.

1. First and foremost the 3 Stooges
2. W.C. Fields and anyone he was with
3. Marx Bros.
4. Laurel & Hardy
5. Abbott & Costello
6. Little Rascals

I much like yours except in this descending ordering, I take nothing away from all. There also are many great teams, but I never saw them as much as I saw these growing up. In the recent past months, I've re-discovered Myrna Loy & William Powell, what a great team! There are so many I love, laughted with Buster Keaton, but were talk'n about teams. To all :eusa_clap


1.The Three Stooges (mostly with Curly, then Shemp)
2. The Marx Bros.
3. Abbott & Costello
4. Martin & Lewis
5. Crosby & Hope
