Topic: How to watch Mack Sennett's talkies?

I've been trying to watch some of the Sennett talkies, but they are virtually impossible to find. Most of them (even ones that are extant) are not online or on home video.

Here are a few Sennett talkies on YouTube.

Thanks! It's great to see a few, but I wonder why there aren't more available, because there are some that aren't lost (such as his first talkie The Lion's Roar or the Great Pie Mystery) that I can't find anywhere.

The four W.C. Fields shorts are definitely available, that’s a place to start.  The Mack Sennett Collection Volume 1 Blu Ray set has a couple of non Fields talkies in addition to a ton of silents.  I’ll have to catch up on the ones Dr. Mabuse posted.

"The Mack Sennett Collection Volume 2" has been delayed, but hopefully will be released next year.

I really want to get that when it comes out. It includes two of the ones I mentioned I wanted to see.

Key in “Mack Sennett Bing Crosby” and “Mack Sennett Andy Clyde” into YouTube’s search engine and you’ll find a bunch more. There is also a YouTube channel called Geno’s House of Rare Films that has many more rare Sennett talkies, some in eye-popping SennettColor.
