And Andy's deputy was Barney Fife, Duh. Who is this Kingfish guy? Is he on 'The deadliest catch'? I love being a 'kid' at 62.......

At 62 you missed some of the best comedy of the 50's. the Amos and Andy show was a million laughs. They started out on radio which is way before your time.

All their episodes appear to be on YouTube. Here's a good one. What is the car they painted with a vacuum cleaner? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvZulz_rlcg

Hey, Hey ! 1953 .... at age 15 .... Dodge and Plymouth coming out with pink and violet colored cars .... I painted my first car, a 1948 4-door barge Ford violet, using a vacuum cleaner sprayer. Orange peel galore. It was a police magnet.

That telling your age. I love to watch Amous and Andy. I use to call Dad Kingfish behind his back. He would have killed me if he knew that.
