I agree too...I don't think it's a belief, it's a fact that talent was greater then then it is now. I'm 22 and would rather be watching I Love Lucy or The Dean Martin Show then just about anything that's on TV today. I'd also rather listen to Frank and Ella Fitzgerald then idiots with no class like Justin Timberlake and that Kanye person. I think the age of the people commenting on this video and what's been said is funny. It's nice to know i'm not alone!

Thank you! I'm glad to know I'm not alone as well. I am EXACTLY the same way when it comes to the stuff of today. Everything is just pointless hyped up CRAP. I'm glad that through youtube, the smarter of the younger generation has the ability to meet others who share their loves. I could never find others who agreed with me. Thanks for being nonconforming!

I hated when my elders thought that their comedy, music, art and values of there generation were better than mine. (Everything cost a f**king nickel, kids didn't talk back...blah, blah...)Believe me, yesterday was not as great as people say and today isn't nearly half as bad. Martin and Lewis were great, but it might be a mistake to ignore your own era. There is talent out there. Don't believe lie that things were better in their day. People's craving for nostalgia is their fear of facing today.

Well, I happen to believe that music, movies, television, and comedy WERE better back then. That's just my opinion. It is VERY rare for me to find something these days that sparks my interest or actually has the ability to make me laugh. I mean, I'm young. I HAVE faced entertainment of today. It's just not for me.

I don't understand how anybody could not like Dean and Jerry. They are truly fantastic. I wish there were shows like the Colgate Comedy Hour on today. For those of us who love and adore Jerry and Dean, they will remain in our hearts regardless of our age. I'm only 21 and I am completely addicted to Jerry and Dean. I could watch them all day everyday and still never get bored. God bless Jerry and Dean!!!

@TheChoule11 What is sad to me is that back then it was easier to become a famous entertainer then it is today. They new talent then. These days no one really knows what talent is. In those days they gave people a chance. These days you have to give blood for that.

[TheChoule11]

Nobody and I do mean NOBODY else could or ever will be as great and as entertaining as Dean and Jerry. I love this song!

[lapislazuli7]

Sorry in case it has been mentioned before but what's the name of the band? Great sound.

I'm gonna geek out a bit and say that 3:25-3:30 on this video is similar to what Dean whistles in Clip 12 0:38-0:44 /watch?v=3UVS0JmYzLg

I love these men! 2:03 - "When do we get the money..."

@sujufanatic Jerry probably couldn't even get Dean TO rehearse! Dean hated to rehearse.

@igvmyslf1000pts I completely agree. I'm 20 years old and I've tried the Saturday Night Live, the stand up comedians, etc. and I never even smile. Everything that comes out of their mouths is smut, and performers today usually just get by with their sex appeal and help from the computer. Back in the day, people would take time to get good at their craft and perform FOR the public, and didn't act like the public owed them something, like the famous today.
