OUR GANG |
1922-1938, 1938-1944 |
Hal Roach's brainchild and beloved series consisted of 168 shorts and one feature film before he sold the series and name to MGM in 1938. Beginning in 1922, the series churned out several two-reel shorts each year until mid-1936 when the films were cut down from 2-reels to 1-reel. This remained the trend up until mid-1938 when MGM took the series over. 52 more shorts were made by MGM until the series was ultimately ended six years later in 1944. The first 88 shorts were silents. † The films listed here are in order of release - NOT the order of production. Special thanks to Rick Greene for many of the posters used herein. |
