The Misadventures of Si & Elmer 41 Eps


(5 estrellas; 2 reseñas)

"The Misadventures of Si & Elmer" (aka "Si & Elmer") was a daily 15-minute comedic soap opera, broadcast in the early 1930s. The story follows two old fellas who decide later in life, in their mid-60s, to become detectives.

The boys manage to receive their detective license and quickly open their own agency, studying their work manual as they investigate. The antics that follow are quite hilarious and worth following, regardless of the 1 and 1/2 minute lead-in and out of music you will hear at the opening and closing of the show.

Enjoy this wonderful old-time radio treasure with your family!

Reseñas

series 2 badly jumbled; missing imporant show


The first three or four episodes of the train story are in the correct order, but after that, the files are obviously mislabeled. Even worse: #17 and #18 are the same episode, the last one, so the critical part in which the mystery is actually solved is missing.

Not a big fan of old comedies, but...

Not a huge fan of the old radio comedies, but this was surprisingly funny with an interesting concept, and the writers do a great job of creating situations to best play into that. And the sound quality is much better than expected with the timeframe of this program.

RE: Jumbled Si & Elmer


Ouch! That means I deleted the wrong episode .. Thank you for your comment! When I downloaded S&I, the Eps were all over the place - not numbered/no titles; I made up titles as I went along, in order to put in proper order. I'll have a look for final Ep of storyline. I intend on uploading more S&I storylines; after I re-arrange & upload them, I will add in the final Ep of the train robbery. Thanks again! : ) DEF GP - - November 17, 2010 Subject: jumbled si & elmer Sorry ... best I could do; downloaded the files from other places & tried to put them in order ... but ... guess I must have fallen short - sorry 'bout that ... :-( Possibly you could pick up where 'yours truly' left off ???? ... :- )
