LAUREL AND HARDY DOUBLE FEATURE
TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET
Laurel and Hardy month continues on TCM tonight, and prime time this evening presents another solid-gold double feature. Starting things off at 8 p.m. ET is 1937’s Way Out West, in which Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy (pictured) are ordered to deliver the deed of a gold mine to the daughter of a recently deceased prospector. Then, at 9:30 p.m. ET, comes 1938’s Block-Heads, in which Stan returns to the home front, and to best friend Ollie, after 20 years at war – having been isolated, and uninformed that WWI had ended decades before. Are these early sound comedies still funny, if you give them a chance and slow down your internal clock a bit? Yes, indeed. Or, in the case of Way Out West, yes – in deed.
