Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are probably the best-known comedy duo of all time, and they haven’t performed together in decades. The team came together out of vaudeville and the silent film industry, and they complemented one another perfectly. Comedy duos at the time typically relied on a comedian playing off a straight man, but both Laurel and Ha...
Laurel & Hardy dominated in the 1920s and ’30s, but they weren’t the only team making waves throughout the Depression years. Men like Wheeler & Woolsey produced some great comedy, but there was another team that deserves some attention. Hal Roach, the creator of Laurel & Hardy, envisioned a team of comedic women. In 1931, he created the first major...
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello are probably one of the best-known comedy duos from their era. Both men began working in vaudeville before making the jump to radio, and finally, film. You probably know them for their “Who’s on First” routine, but they did so much more than that. Throughout the 1940s and ’50s, Abbot & Costello dominated the industry. Th...
Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis are another comedy duo that’s stood the test of time. The pair began working together in 1946 doing live performances in clubs, and by ’49, they were killing it on the radio. They developed their act through a great deal of improvisation and slapstick. The pair managed to play the straight man/funny man act to perfection...
The 1960s is a decade that would go to the Smothers Brothers had they specialized in film instead of television variety shows. Since this list is all about film comedy duos, the honor of best team-up from the 1960s goes to Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. Unlike the other teams on this list, this pairing wasn’t your typical comedy duo. When they got...
The 1970s was a great decade for comedy, thanks to folks like Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner, and Monty Python. When it comes to comedy duos, the decade begins and ends with none other than Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong. The two began working together in 1971. Cheech & Chong’s popular stand-up routine led to their success in studio recordings and numerous ...
For the most part, successful comedy duos were always the same race, and that race was typically Caucasian in prior decades. Before Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder came together, there were numerous attempts and making a mixed-race duo work. There have been plenty since, but none did nearly as well as these guys. Their comedy pairing began the previo...
The 1990s were filled with all manner of comedy duos, many of them coming straight out of Saturday Night Live. Mike Myers and Dana Carvey’s Wayne’s World led to two films, and while they were great together on-screen, you can’t talk about 90’s comedy duos and not look to Chris Farley and David Spade. These two guys had some of the best on-screen ch...
Picking the best comedy duo of the 2000s is no easy task. It’s the decade that saw exceptional pairings, including Ben Stiller & Owen Wilson, Will Ferrel & John C. Reilly, John Cho & Kal Penn, and many more. Despite all the offerings, the decade goes to Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. The pair began working together in 1999 on Spaced, and they kept thei...
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have known one another since 1993, and it wasn’t long before the two became close friends. They began working with one another soon after, and by the turn of the century, both were working on Saturday Night Live. They spent the first decade of their career working alongside one another, with most of their efforts being in t...
