"The Taxi Boys" was a series of comedy shorts from the 1930s, produced by Hal Roach, who also did "Laurel and Hardy". (The music from L & H is even reused for this series). The taxi boys are two bumbling taxi drivers who bumble and stumble across crazy situations. One is a portly fellow, like Hardy, and the other is a manic, impish fellow who is the leader of the two. The duo never became famous; there were only a handful of these shorts made. And they are not very funny.
