just great comedy by brilliant perfomers

I don't see how anyone can not see this cast of great performers, as anything but positive, and wonderful comedy, it is much better than what we get today.

When he came out and took that cushion off of the sofa I literally busted out laughing

This episode is classic TV at its finest. Absolutely fantastic with a great ending!

I love these shows.. I’m 59 and of course was not around when they were on tv. But, I don’t watch hardly any new tv, but news and the old comedy’s All the actors and actress in Amos and Andy were wonderful!

I love this comedy. Whoever made this show was awfully smart. Genious.

Tim Moore is so underrated!! One in a million character!! ♥️

One of the best thank you this was fun to watch.

My family and I quote lines from these 2 episodes all the time! 😆 "You get the axe and I'll get the saw, and cut off the legs of my mother-in-law...." 😂 Truly one of the best comedy series ever on TV with both great writing and even greater, *brilliant* acting. The entire team involved with the show deserves Emmys as well as any other recognition possible, even posthumously. They were early pioneers of African-American comedy. Well done, Amos 'n' Andy cast and crew! Wherever you are...thank you. ❤

I am so happy for KZfaq because years ago, you actually had to wait until the next week or until the show came on again, and usually it left off when it was getting really good. Now we can watch a continuation instantly after part 1.

This is one of the funniest episodes!

Tim Moore had more talent than all of the other comediens through the last hundred years combined

Its amazing how I still remember some of these shows as a child. 😊 I don't care as much for the radio version.

Amazing! ! I still enjoy this show!!!!

As a kid growing up in the fifties, I watched this show on television and considered the character Sapphire (Ernestine Wade) as most anyone else I knew, to be the old ball and chain wife. I am a much older man now and looking through these eyes now, I realize that she was actually quite attractive.

Andrew Brown was an excellent foil for the Kingfish.

Thank you so much for uploading this!! This was way funnier than “I Love Lucy” ever was; everyone was great and the story lines are hysterical and believable. Thank you again!

“Getting Mama Married, Part 2” Season 1, Episode 18, aired 25 October 1951. Alvin Childress as Amos, Spencer Williams as Andy (as Spencer Williams Jr.), Tim Moore as Kingfish, Ernestine Wade as Sapphire, Johnny Lee as Calhoun, Amanda Randolph as Mama, Nick Stewart and Lightnin', Zelda Cleaver as Helena Smithers, Amos Reese as Deputy Sheriff Williams.

This is my favorite episode.

Excellent television, regardless of the time period. Still representing.

Wow the honeymooners practically copied this entire episode. There was an episode where Ralph tried to marry off Alice's aunt Ethel to get her out of the house.

Most the women on this show was thick volupteous women. .noone descriminated about size, natural beauties .

George’s names for his mother in law sure fit. :)

The best! The "Kingfish" in real life it was told, had cancer and being a Pentecostal believer in Jesus, fasted and prayed 50 days with no food. The cancer miraculously disappeared!😮

I am 70 years old and watched this show even as a kid, its funny, the actors are talented, its clean you can watch it with your entire family I am a white male with an African American wife and mixed kids my wives family all thought the show was hilarious and many of the black people I know feel the same. Thee actors all were portrayed as having homes, dressing well when going out and having good responsible jobs, No one is portrayed as stupid or lazy. The King fish is a"Character" designed to be funny no social messages here. This show was and remains classic comedy . By the way those few that were saying it makes blacks look bad should think. This show used 99% black actors in a time where work for blacks was hard to come by. No one here is an "Aunt "Jemimah" type character it was funny but showed black neighborhoods where good decent people lived and worked the only other portrayal was the King Fish character and that was intentionally overplayed strictly for comedy. There was no scenes with people yelling the "N" word, no parade of whores and drug addicts or gangsters like we see daily. The show was the best

I think that is a 1939 Ford Deluxe the Kingfish is driving. Sure looks like the one my grandad had

I love them all 😃

Great show very funny 😂😂😂

It's "Getting Momma Married". Getting and obtaining are not always the same thing. Sound like the title was interpreted into another language and interpreted back into English by a foreigner.

thanks

It appears in this (& several other episodes) like Amos (Alvin Childress) is wearing a dark brown make-up on his face 🤔 This was a HILARIOUS television show with WONDERFULLY TALENTED AFRICAN-AMERICANS!! 💜💜💜👑💜💜💜

Tim Moore is soooo funny

battleaxe

Great

Part 2 is when it really gets good! @26:11

Love this Show ❤❤😂😂😂😂

Sapphire is fine

People back during this time got engaged and married at the drop of a hat. What world!!!!

YES< YES YES! Well Well Well!

The title is obviously a re-translation. It should be "Getting Mama Married".

Mama gave it up on first date! 😉

❤

Holy mackerel
