Hotel Anchovy (1934) - The Ritz Brothers
Freddie Sanborn:
Very soon Harry became the focal point of the trio, with his brothers flanking him like shadows. The act can be seen in its purest form in this 1949 TV program, https://youtu.be/zX7StdJ_Uuc
Count this Moronikan as a huge fan. “Don’t hollahhh!!!”

Hard not to smile at several of the Ritz Bros' bits in this telecast. Thanks for posting the link, Freddie.

That footage is excellent. Laughing my head off when Al and Jimmy are arguing and Harry makes the funny faces and then does the, “don’t holler” line. These guys do seem comfortable on stage and perhaps it was where they were best, but I still need to see more mid period Fox films. I can now identify Harry easily Jimmy appears to be smaller than Al. I think I got it now.
...and by the way, who can spot the Stooge supporting player in this footage?

Phil Arnold, of course - from a number of the Shemp-era Stooge shorts.
