EL SHOW DE ABBOTT Y COSTELLO

Postby Ed Watz » Sun Oct 01, 2023 7:14 am

The Abbott & Costello Show, dubbed in Spanish. The episode (Lou The Politician) starts at the 9:55 mark. Unlike the usually horrible French, Italian and German dubs of American comedians, the Spanish seem to have made great effort to capture a reasonable facsimile of the performer's voice. Lou Costello sounds good, but Bud Abbott is spot-on perfect.

Not worth watching in full, but it had me laughing, especially at Señor Abbott. (Well, I always said Bud was far funnier than Costello, at least in the TV series - when he was finally allowed to be funny.)
