Oh wow, this is actually kind of a jackpot find for us Marx Brothers fans. Considering that up till this point, the only known episode to survive of this series was the very last episode, to see someone else discover another episode is a true treat. Really awesome find.

Glad you are enjoying the show. I just love watching Chico in this episode...such a likable guy. I think his true personality shows through.

@peterallen6641 2 года назад

It's so good that we can finally get to see another episode of Chico's show! And IMO this one serves his character so much better than the other surviving episode. Here he has gags! It's just a little bit wonderful and miraculous that we can watch Chico Marx as he was broadcast LIVE seventy years ago... Oh, and a bonus treat - all the sponsor ads are intact! Thank you so much.

Another rare (and great) find from TV's golden age. Thanks again, Moviecraft.

My pleasure! I wish I had more of the series to post! Alas, just one in the collection...

Andy Williams was just 23 when this aired.

Fresh Cream - "contains amazing ingredients" - the stuff was chockful of aluminum back then. 😂

The very first T.V. series with Andy Williams (1927 - 2012). Andy of course went on to be one of the biggest T.V., recording, and concert singers in the world....

Its fun to see how new television was at the time, and how people were still learning to work with the camera and editing.

Such fun for a Marx fan... plus 3 Broadway numbers: The Eagle & Me from Bloomer Girl, Glad to Be Unhappy from On Your Toes and If This Isn't Love from Finian's Rainbow!

Fantastic Find - just heard about this! I think this tops the BUCK ROGERS live ABC episode you found awhile back - and that was your best find ever!

@groth1m Год назад

Very good. Andy Williams is on it too.

Stanley Prager later became a producer and director {"CAR 54, WHERE ARE YOU?", "THE PATTY DUKE SHOW"}. He died of a heart attack in January 1972, shortly after his 55th birthday.

Who is the announcer

@LandondeeL Год назад

So when did "The College Bowl" morph into that quiz show, hosted by Allen Ludden and then Robert Earle?

I never knew that the first Cream album, Fresh Cream, was named after an underarm deodorant.

@TheLorrephile 2 года назад

I wonder if any of these "kids" are still with us...

@TheLorrephile 2 года назад

And the announcer doesn't know how to pronounce the name of the star of the show?...

@Mikado8848 2 года назад

Wonder whether that was deliberate, thinking the stage name's actual pronunciation would confuse the masses...?

@BaccarWozat Год назад

It was a common mispronunciation. It's easy to get "Chicko" confused with the Hispanic "Chico" (meaning "small").

@Mikado8848 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing. What's the big story behind this rare find?

@stevenvaleriojr1177 2 года назад

Well, ya see, Chico needed the money...

@tonypanzarella9387 2 года назад

Note that, even in 1951, someone was selling drugs off campus ... 0:27

of course Chico would be doing that!

What Clip is Andy Williams in This Video?

@MoviecraftInc 2 года назад

It was a rotating cast so it seems Andy Williams is only in the beginning titles in this episode.

I think this show was created mainly to help Chico Marx pay off his gambling debts.

@Mikado8848 2 года назад

Have you read something to that effect?

@bbtfan4617 2 года назад

@@Mikado8848 No, just that at this time that Chico had accrued massive debts from gambling and had to keep performing while his brothers were able to retire.

@stevenvaleriojr1177 2 года назад

Most things Chico did were to pay off his gambling debts.

@bbtfan4617 2 года назад

Of course Groucho and Harpo both continued to perform occasionally-but mainly because they wanted to.
