[The Incredible Jewel Robbery](http://www.shoutfactorytv.com/the-marx-brothers-tv-collection/the-general-electric-theater-the-incredible-jewel-robbery/551595a469702d0708258700) is online on Shout-TV. It’s one of the last appearances of Harpo, Chico, and Groucho together (though Groucho only has a cameo). It’s basically a silent film. Not their best work, but with a few amusing moments. Introduced by Ronald Reagan, who mispronounces “Chico.” ---

How does he pronounce it? Chick-o is the one the brothers used, but Cheek-o is quite common. ---

It was always pronounced “Chick-O” officially, though the other was common. ---

Completists (who, moi?) have had their hands on this since Shout released [The Marx Brothers TV Collection](https://www.amazon.com/Marx-Brothers-TV-Collection/dp/B00HRUQ992/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1480128427&sr=8-1&keywords=the+marx+brothers+tv+collection) in 2014. Three discs of incredible rarities. Good price. ---

I misread the Thread title as **_Four_ Marx Brothers completists** and was disappointed to open the Thread and see no mention of Zeppo. ---

Meh. Wake me when someone finds a copy of _Humor Risk_. ---

Three discs of incredible rarities. Good price. I always wanted to see Chico play bridge on a tv show. Still I’m glad this was released. I’d rather have things officially released than not. ---

> [@Jim\_s\_Son](#): > > I always wanted to see Chico play bridge on a tv show. I saw it. It was the first time I heard of Chico. Everybody knew about Groucho from _You Bet Your Life_, and Harpo was an icon, but when I was growing up, Chico was not mentioned outside of the films, which were hard to see. It was on Charles Goren’s show.
