The Abbott and Costello Show-Mr Bacciagalupe, Pt.2

A two part compilation of Joe Kirk's appearances as Mr. Bacciagalupe (BAH-chə-gah-LOOP), the highly excitable Italian neighbor of Bud and Lou from the first season of their show. Kirk was Lou Costello's real life brother-in-law and first created the character for their radio show and appeared in many of the duo's films. Later he brought Mr. Bacciagalupe to the two seasons of their TV show where he held a variety of jobs as a barber, grocer, fruit vendor, ice cream vendor, peanut vendor, bakery owner, and music store salesman as the plots required. He would either get one over on Bud and Lou, or wind up manically frustrated by Lou.
