I go with Laurel and Hardy. The Stooges had some good slapstick humor but L & H would slowly lead you into a funny outcome that superceded what the Stooges would do. Maybe you have to be in the right mood to enjoy one over the other.
Honeymooners was good. Very short-lived show(39 episodes) that took off after it was canceled. Kind of like the original Star Trek series.Gotta say that, not of the same era, but "The Honeymooners", were hilarious! My old man turned me on to them. Kramden and Norton were just flat out funny!
