Pardon My Sarong:
Abbot and Costello play bus drivers Algy and Wellington, who decide to veer off course in pursuit of a playboy on the way to his famous yacht party. However, an unexpected hurricane suddenly lands the pair on an unusual island.
Who Done It?:
Hailed as "one of Abbott and Costello's best" by film critic Leonard Maltin, Who Done It features Abbott and Costello as radio writers. Involved in what they believe is a "whodunit" play, they soon discover the plot and characters are all real. With an ensemble cast including Mary Wickes and William Bendix.
Buck Privates:
Set during World War II, Buck Privates showcases Abbott and Costello as two ruthless salesmen who accidentally enlist in the US Army to escape imprisonment. What they did not bargain for, however, is that the drill sergeant is the very police officer who wanted to lock them up in the first place.
One Night In The Tropics:
One Night in the Tropics marks the film debut of the hilarious duo Abbott and Costello. "Lucky" (Allan Jones) devises a plan to make a profit off of his friend Steve's (Robert Cummings) pre-wedding jitters by selling him love insurance. The famous "Who's on First" routine marks the comedic climax of the film.
Here Come The Co-Eds:
After a fake plea in the local paper garners the attention of the dean, taxi dancer Molly (Martha O'Driscoll) earns a scholarship to Bixby College. Bringing her friend Oliver (Lou Costello) and brother Slats (Bud Abbott) with her to work as janitors, the trio soon attracts the attention of the school chairman.
In Society:
Abbott and Costello are Eddie and Albert, plumbers hired by a socialite, in In Society. After a letter of complaint to the pair gets mixed in with invitations to a posh ball, the duo find themselves guests at one of the most important social events of the season. A valuable painting goes missing during the event and Eddie and Albert get the blame.
