I love the old slapstick comedies! These were still readily available on network TV when I was growing up in the 1970's. Laurel and Hardy were also good. I'm not sure if we have many entertainers around these days can compare with those who transitioned from silent films to talkies. Rowan Atkinson is the closest I can think of off the top of my head. The Three Stooges still make me laugh to this day!
Glad to find another slapstick fan! The older I get, the more I enjoy the simple slapstick of the silent comedians, especially Buster Keaton. Mr Bean absolutely is the modern heir to this style of comedy. A few others pop up here and there that do it. Teller of Penn and Teller sometimes really seems to be channeling Harpo.
I love the early talkie comics too. Laurel and Hardy are great. Three Stooges, Marx Brothers. I show my kids Laurel and Hardy and the Three Stooges often. When they get older I'll add the Marx Brothers in.
I'm the same way. Humor has changed so much throughout the decades, it's so much more sarcastic and snarky these days. I'm glad you're sharing this with your kids! There's a Facebook group for fans of The Three Stooges and people share some very obscure clips, pictures, and facts about them. It's super interesting!
I never really got into that style of comedy like the Three Stooges and stuff like that. I was always a bit more into the cartoons and things like that. I can definitely appreciate their skill on some of those stunts watching them back now though.
In terms of early talkie comics, I always liked the Marx Brothers more than the Three Stooges. There are only so many times you can watch Moe hit the other two, after all. Watching Groucho insult everyone though, well I could watch that forever.
It's like that in life, problems will continue, we should live happily by watching such movies and comedies.
Laughting is the key of happy life
And long life, if research is to be believed.

Laughter IS the best medicine, for sure.
Glad you enjoyed them. The older I get, the more I enjoy the more simple slapstick of these old comics.

Charlie Chaplin is a legend! Too bad how he was ostracized and the end of his life. Very funny stuff he came up with!
Will do!
