I completely agree. His homespun humor was pure Americana. As good a comedian as he was, few realize what a fine dramatic actor he could be. His 'Face In the Crowd' movie, released in 1957, was a classic, and co=starred Patricia O'Neal and Walter Mathau.
Of course, he will always be 'Sheriff Andy' to me and most, I guess. :wink:

Lets get back to Costello. He was a great comedian and Abbott was one of the best straight men of all time. He was at least good as Dean Martin was.

Agreed! :thumbup:
Remember the movie street skit where Bud and Lou were getting robbed? Bud quickly 'gave' Lou the $20 he owed him! :lol:

Those old timers WERE really good. I think the last of good comedy from the modern era was found on "evening at the improve" but even they couldn't hold a candle to the old school!

Korman and Conway were a really important reason I always watched that show. Tim Conway was an excellent example of a comedian who could make you laugh just with the look on his face.

Yeah, and Korman could not keep a straight face around Conway, who always cracked him up with laughter! :lol:
