My Mom got my nieces hooked on that show.
I've not seen it since I was 8. It was a pretty awesome set of comedies.

Abbott & Costello did the same routine:
But who did it first?

What's on second
Come on, does it matter who did it second?
I know you guys are having some fun here, but that got me wondering.
I did a bit of research and the Abbott & Costello routine is from the movie "Little Giant" which was put out in 1946. The Ma & Pa kettle one was done for "Ma and Pa Kettle Back on the Farm" which was put out in 1951. So, for the purposes of these two bits, Abbott & Costello did it first.
However, we are talking about Vaudeville here and so it is very likely that it was a bit done by both for a long time before it ever made it into film and neither one were the first to come up with it.
