Abbott & Costello - Who�s on First? (ws)
"The second funniest sketch of the 20th century" is what "Time" magazine called this in their millennium issue back in 2000.

Jack Benny - Christmas Shopping
Jack Benny was one of the top comedians (and most loved!) in the U.S. from the 1930s through the 1960s. He always played the straight man and got more laughs from his silence than from his words.
