Does this show air ANYWHERE anymore? I really enjoyed the few episodes I saw of it.

THANKS!

It certainly ought to. It was a hilarious classic. I think it was better than their movies. I especially liked it, when the adult Joe Besser, would play the child, Stinky, in the apartment building. It was also kind of interesting, that several of the people used their actual names, like Hillary Brooke. The strange thing is that I've heard that unlike his character, Bud Abbott was just the nicest guy you'd ever want to meet, and that Costello was sort of opposite to his character too.

...who pulls out a cap pistol during a filmed TV routine and starts shooting it off when he feels like it, never mind what the script or director says- THAT was Lou. Bud knew how to handle that bit of improv and "jump-start" the routine again {"Put that thing away!!"}. Lou could get away with a lot of things when the camera was pointed at him (witness his reactions on "THE COLGATE COMEDY HOUR")...but he was a sweet man who loved his family as well.
