My favorite is their "Telephone" routine, where Nichols is calling directory assistance from a pay phone to get the number of George Kaplan, at 4411 Huguenot Walloon Drive. May, as the operator, says, "Kaplan? That is K, as in knife?". The pay phone then swallows his last dime, and he escalates the call in an attempt to get his dime back.

Remember when a call cost a dime? Remember pay phones?

Their "Doctor - Nurse" routine is not to be missed.

They did a series of Beer commercials that were hilarious. They were shown as cartoons on television, but worked also well on the radio.
