Rating:  - Excellent sound and picture quality on these classics!
The Best of Abbott & Costello, Vol. 2 (Hit the Ice / In Society / Here Come the Co-Eds / The Naughty Nineties / Little Giant / The Time of Their Lives / Buck Privates Come Home / The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap)

Rating:  - As usual problems with freezing
I love these two guys and their clean comedy.What i don't like is the picture freezing up.My DVD players are all less than six months old and i have three of them.I realize they don't make these players like they use to.I'm asking does anyone else have this problem? It seems like every other tape i buy i have this problem.
Rating: - Best of Abbott & Costello

Rating: - Good CLEAN laughs!
Bought this for my son. He loved them! It's great to hear him laughing throughout the movies!! I'm grateful he's fond of the classics, which are more kid friendly:)
