[ # ] Late Night hits it out of the park with this updated version of Who’s on First?
December 21st, 2012 under Billy Crystal, Jimmy Fallon, Seinfeld


One of Abbott and Costello’s most famous routines was “Who’s on First?” Well yesterday on Late Night, Jimmy Fallon recreated the bit playing Bud Abbott and Steve Higgins as Lou Costello. But unlike the original bit they added Who, What and IDontKnow to the NBC show’s take on it and I think it might’ve actually made it even funnier. Granted it could be because Billy Crystal was Who and Jerry Seinfeld was IDontKnow, but I think it was more than that. It just added a whole new level of mayhem to the gag having the basemen join in, don’t you agree?
The only problem I had with it, is Fallon is the man of many voices and yet he kinda sucked as Bud Abbott. That and I wish that Robin Williams played What or IDontKnow!
If you say I don’t know who Abbott and Costello are and what Who’s on First? is, then you can watch them do it below from the 1945 movie The Naughty Nineties!
