Laurel and Hardy

Every "Thanksgiving" morning here in New York City they put on "March of the Wooden Soldiers" on TV with Laurel & Hardy and I still have to watch it every year. I guess it's because we grew up watching them and "Abbott & Costello" and the youngsters today don't see the humor in their comedy. I still love their old movies.

Laurel and Hardy used to bring tears to my eyes, literally they were so damn funny! I was brought up on them, as well as Harold Lloyd do you remember him too? I had all the videos of Laurel and Hardy, trouble is it's far too expensive having to convert them to dvd! I could watch them over and over again and I would never truly get fed up with them. It's a shame the younger generation don't appreciate them or see them for what they really are, great classic and a great duo. So many episodes. I love the one when Hardy's wife left him with a baby and her solicitor was suing Laurel for being the object of Hardy's affections and they had to calm this crying baby down with hilarious consequences. I used to always feel sorry for Hardy! Laurel would always stick his finger in Hardy's eye, painful! The music was good to to accompany the scenes and very catchy and hip for it's era. It's a shame your children didn't appreciate them, maybe when they are older, possibly, maybe? They are quite young aren't they so they probably don't understand the humour. Oh well at least we know a good thing don't we my friend! Laurel and Hardy rule and if I had a choice of Laurel and Hardy and some of the 'derisory' shite they put on nowadays I know I'll choose Laurel and Hardy hands down!

They sure are funny.The most adorable and funniest characters ever.I am a die hard fan of them and so is my young daughter.Your kids might not be in a mood for them.They will get a taste of them in due course.The best things always remain the best dear.

i love laurel and hardy movies.i do have a couple of them at home,though my kids donot grasp the meaning of the words they say,they do laugh at the funny sights they potray.i just love to laugh at their silly gestures,

Yes I do. Yesterday I watched one of their movies while having christmas lunch at my parents. It was really funny. I guess our children have different tastes. Yesterday my wife teased me that I have a white hair growing.... It might means that there is an age gap between our sons and us.

I would have loved to have seen the dvd's. I l adored Laurel an Hardy. They really were funny. Maybe it was just they were a product of the times and that is why we thought that they were funny. Maybe or probably the children are so much more sophisticated to day than I ever was. Blessings

When I was a kid we would see Laurel and Hardy on Saturday morning TV. They were funny. I always felt sorry for Laurel because Hardy was always hitting him with his hat.Today's kids are used to seeing a different kind of humor. I like Buster Keaton myself. I got started watching these and couldn't stop. They are so funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DforvQnEuIU&feature=related
